MOON CAR HAS OLD
 COMPANY BEHIND II

The Moon Motor Car company has been manufacturing motor cars for approximately fifteen years. It has the reputation of putting out quality cars in preference to quantity produc- tion-
 Over a quarter of century ago, and before the automobile was heard Of practically the same stockholders en- gagged in the manufacture of what was to be known later as the famous line of Moon buggies.
 During the past year, government orders for war material (principally shells and automobile trucks) amount ed to over s25.OO0. 900. This work called for expansion of production facilities to such an extent that at the present time. the Moon factory has double the capacity for the manufac- ture or motor cars that it enjoyed 20 months ago.
 The Moon Brothers Buggy com pany. which is affiliated with the Moon Motor Car company. has for the past two years manufactured all of the pneumatic tire pumps for the Ford Motor company, Dodge Brothers, Studebaker, Maxwell Motor Car com panly. the Goodyear, the Goodrich, and Kelly Springfield Tire companies, turning out as many at 12,000 pneu- matic tire pumps per day.
 This company also owns and con- trols the Landis Sewing Machine company. which manufactures ex- clusively all the wax thread sewing machines used in America and is the only independent sewing machine company outside of the trust which has the exclusive patent on the single wax thread machine. and every shoe manufacturing company must buy from them
 Financially the aggregate of the above companies runs into the millions.
 The Moon Motor Car company is headed by Stewart Mcdonald as presi- dent. He is one of the youngest ex- ecutives among the well known auto mobile manufacturers. sHe has sur rounded himself with young depart ment heads. and has progressive ideas in keeping with the day.

G[|NCHER TIRE
 MOST POPULAR

1 "If Uncle Sams census takers | would pause while occupied with ring | ing door bells and climbing stairs in their task of counting heads in the 1 United States and turn their attention to making an enumeration of lighter cars in use in this coutnry, their tab
 ulation would startle the automobile owner, says Paul Bennett of the local Goodyear service station.
 Statistics made by manufacturers and automobile clubs show that more than 5S per cent of all cars in the country use clicher tires In 3ox3, 30x31s and 31x4 sizes.
 "It is aparent from this percentage that there are more light car tires being used in the United States than any other size This class of tire business is now the largest in the rubber industry.
 'In an effort to meet the demand Tire & Rubber company has centered the efforts of expert Workmen in turning out tires that are especially adapted for maximum mileage service on the lighter acrs- The success of this company in meeting the demand of these users has been so gratifying in the last few years that it has in creased it's capacity to 10000 tires of these sizes a day. They are built in the Goodyear Plant No. 2, the largest factory in the world exclusively de- voted to the construction of automo- bile tires in these three sizes.
 Tt is decided advantage for the user of smaller size tires to have all the facilities of to-date Goodyear service stations. At any time he may have his tires tested for wheel align ment imitation, tread cuts, etc, and receive advice as to conservation methods that will enable his tires to deliver maximum mileage Special pamphlets containing information from experts on conservation may be obtained from us
 Goodyear clincher tires ready to deliver maximum mileage, and in- formation that will secure it, are ready for the wise tire user.

ordered his first Marmon car. Some thing happened out of the control of the dealer and the car was never de- livered. Again the next year MT. Fain ordered a Marmon. This time an un- fortunate train wreck spoiled his chances of securing one. It really seemed to everyone that everything was conspiring against him. However, during April of 1919 at the time of the first rumor that the Nordyke and Marmon company were going to intro duce a new model in the shope of a four-door four passenger car MT. Pains interest was again aroused, and on April 12th of last year he placed his order for a job that would be special in every sense of the word. In the meantime the Marmon factory had one difficulty after another in swinging into their new production. Cars were promised for last August, then September, Christmas and it seemed that Dan" would never have his car.
 Now that the car is all ready for delivery, everyone at the w E. Gard ner & Co. showroom is afraid to touch it. No one wants to take any chance

CHAMP COTTONM MAN LIKES HIS TRAILER

When J. NJ. Walthall, champion cot
 ton grower of the valley, stated re- gently that his wagon practically stood on the ranch as a farm ornament, it
 was more fact that fiction The big saving in time and expense that his Utility trailer has effected, is being duplicated by several hundred other progressive farmers in the valley to-. day.
 About nine out of ten times the team is sent to town by the average farmer, it carries no larger load than could be hauled on trailer with light auto mobile. Even where the material to be hauled is greater than can be pulled by the car, several trips can be made in a much shorter time than is re- quired by a team.
 In general trailer users find that on their regular trips to town, they can handle the greater part of their nau1- ing. They also experience big saving in the wear and tear on the auto Those who have no trailer. rather than take a team, put the load in the car, if at all possible. This soon results in marred finish, torn upholstering, and broken springs.
 Any automobile is capable of han ding a one-ton Utility trailer without damage to the car.
