California Using Samson
Tractors to Advantage
Why Not Oregon !

Samson Sieve-Grip Tractors are well
known for their good work and efficient
economy. They are used in practically
all foreign countries, and most extern
sively throughout the west. To meet
the increasing demand branch factory
will soon be building Samson Sieve-Grip
tractors in the eastern states. Up to the
first of this year we had 250 Samson
Sieve-Grip tractors in use in southern
California alone, and January deliveries
added 20 to the list. The remarkable
daily increase in the demand for Samson
Sieve-Grip tractors proves their value.
Nothing but real merit in the article
itself could accomplish such results. You
viii find Samson value in the substan-
tial construction, high grade material,
and workmanship; in the neat and com
pact design; in the many protective fea-
lures such as our patent Nodust Moisto-
Rizer, and, above all, in our patent
Sieve-Grip wheels, the most practical
form of traction ever developed for trae-
tor work. All these are described in dt-
tail in our eatalog S17, mailed free on
OF course you want a Samson on your
ranch because rou naturally want the
best machine yoIr money will buy.

PUNCTURE PROOF

Gates Half-Sole Tires are absolutely
guaranteed against punctures. Think
what it would mean to you to know that
your tires are puncture-proof. You'd
have sense of security and freedom
from worry that you never could have in
any other way. No disagreeable work
and delay.

PROTECTION AGAINST BLOW OUTS

The Gates Half-Sole Tire covers the
worn tire from rim to rim. Every weak
or worn spot in the old casing is rein
forced---all Of the strain is carried down
to the rim, where the Gates Half-Sole is
gripped and held just the same as the tire
itself.
This means double tire strength. A
blowout could not occur without actual
ly breaking through from six to twelve
plies of fabric.
Freedom from blow-outs means big
part of your tire trouble forgotten.
GATES HALF-SOLE BUILT LIKE A TIRE
1t is constructed exactly like other high
grade tires except the beads which are
unnecessary in the Gates Half-Sole Tire
because the original casing over which it
is applied supplies the beads.

Can a Tire Be HaIf-SOIed a Second Time

Yes, this is being done every day. If
the fabric of your tires is sound and in
good condition you might reasonably ex-
pect them to stand up under two or pos
sibly three Half-Soles, because after the
Half-Sole is put on, your casing does not
come into contact with the road---the

WHAT is THE GATES HALF-SOLE TIRE

The Gates Half-Sole Tire is not a
"sewed-on", not ''vulcanized-on", not a
re-tread, but a new tire, manufactured
from new, live rubber and tire fabric Of
the highest quality, designed to be ap-
piled over a tread-worn casing. 1t is
guaranteed the same as other tires---and
more, because it is guaranteed against
puncture; yet it costs only IL as much as
other tires.
