The Whole Secret of
A Better Tire
Simply a Matter of the Makers Policies

To ascertain what each maker
offers one must analyze and test
some 200 tires-as our laboratories
have done.
Then it is a matter of combining
the best features bodybuilding ac-
cording to the highest standards.
Once you try Brunswick you
will understand how we have built
model tires, regardless of factory
expense.
Yet Brunswick Tires cost you the
same as other Ike-type tires. Our
saving is on selling cost, through
our nationwide organization.
We realize that you expect more
from Brunswicks, and we assure
you that you get it. ONE Bruins
wick will tell you the story.
And then you'll want ALL
Brunswicks. No other tire, you'll
agree, gives SO much for your
money. \

ALFALFA SUCCESSFULLY
GROWN IN WARD COUNTY

Mr.. w. ]. Fording, Plaza, N. OAK,
pure bred Storthorn breeder is very
successful with alfalfa. Mr.. Fording
writes as follows: '"The preparation
of the seed bed for successful stand
of alfalfa is one of the most import
ant things. ! have a very fine stand
Of alfalfa this year and never had any
trouble in getting stand. The piece
that l have this year the ground was
manured in 1918 on stubbles. It was
then plOwed deep and put in with po-
tatoes, a crop which puts the soil in
good condition for alfalfa. In 1919
disced the potato ground three times
and dragged it about 6 times, until
the seed bed was very solid. I then
sowed about the 10th of May, 8 pounds
Of alfalfa 10 the acre with one bush
els of oats. This was sowed as shal-
low as the drill could run.
From my experience, am sure that
alfalfa can be grown successfully in
this section of the state. I believe
that sweet clover and alfalfa will even
tually solve the forage problem in this
country. i wish to advise you against
cutting the alfalfa or pasturing it too
short in the fall, because this . is
sure way of causing it to winter-kiM.
I believe that every farmer shohA
have certain amount of livestock
on his farm and that every farmer
who has livestock should raise alfalfa
to feed them.
