There was time in the lean years
of farming when many farmers had
to buy equipment that was poor in
quality because it was cheap. But
today the farmer has money and is
buying equipment of proved value
the sort he has always wanted, be-
cause he knew it mad the genuine
value that made it cheaper in the
long run.
The automobile is today part of the
standard equipment of every farm.
Cars Of the best makes dot every
country road. The farmer is con-
sidered by the auto salesman to be
mcst discriminating buyer. He is
a man used to doing things himself,
and not delegating jobs to others; his
information is usually first hand, and
he knows just what he wants.
tt is because Of the farmers pros
perity and their determination to get
full value for their money that the
United States Tire Company is look
ing forward to an enormous business
this year in the agricultural sections.
Back of United States tires stand the
high traditions of the United States
Tire Companys great factories

for quality in tires since the earli-
est days Of the bicycle.
