The automobile lesson has been
pretty well learned in its fundamen-

Rubber Association, but the farmer
has still to grasp all that the new

generations" Says Mr.. Mcguire. But
the farmer has only begun to use
the automobile to the extent and IN

Finds Pneumatic Tires
Better Than Solid Ones

One of the best examples of trans
porting freight by truck over noun
tain roads is that done by L. ]. Gin
nochio. of Reno, New, who operates
TWO trucks between that city and
Gardnersville, Neb. Steep grades and
poor roads make a severe test for
motor trucks and tires. Despite con-
ditions, the service has been in effect
for four years, with splendid results.
Pneumatics have enabled the trucks
to carry greater pay loads with big
savings in gasoline costs over the
solid tires used during the first year.

article at 8 80 in the morning and
the last at Ais in the evening.

time there was nothing left to sell.
It was one of the biggest jobs any
auction ever undertook, in the
same length of time. and it was
put over to the satisfaction of ev-

of the BOYS. who was on the
grounds from California. took oc-
casion to congratulate Mr.. Cranke1
on his DAYS work and stated that
if he was going to have sale at
his California home he'd certainly
come to Idaho to get his auction
eer.
It was an ideal day for the sale
and the attendance was very
large. and that most every one
was there to buy was shown in the
lively bidding. A striking fea-
