GATES RUBBER
 CO { GROWTH PHENOMENAL

Possibly no industry in the history Of America has had a more pheno- menal growth than the Gates Rubber company. says W. s. Langford, pro- prietor of the Lanford Rubber & Sup ply company. local agents for Gates tires and half-soles.
 From an obscure trade at which one man struggled for a meagre ex- istance to athriving and profitable industry-the biggest institution Of its kind in the weSt-is it's brief history Yesterday it was the vision of man whose unusual foresight won him the name of a dreamer. Today it is a reality that mocks the ultra-conserva- tives who scoffed the ideas and ideals of it's founder-Charles c. Gates.
 As a matter of interesting compari- son, when the Gates Rubber company was founded, it employed five people, today there are over 1500 on the pay roll; it occupied a few hundred feet of floor space, today it covers eight acres: it spent a few hundred dollars for letters and stamps: this year il is investing hundreds, of thousands in every known medium Of advertising; 1; then it totaled sales in three and four figures-today the annual volume is in the millions; then it had two deal. ers-today it has over 5000 prosperous service stations throughout the Uni ted States.
 The first product of the Gates Rub Der company was the now famous Gates half-sole tire. It is now manu. featuring the super tread tire and the Gates tested tube The super tread tire is the result of 600 laboratory tests and 1S2.000 miles of road test This super tread tire is continually proving its superior construction to hundreds of thousaHds of satisfied users.

FORD PRICES HAVE TOUCHED
 R0CK BOTTOM

Edsel E. Ford recently issued the following statement in regard to a reduction in price of the Fordson tractor:
 The price of the Fordson tractor has been reduced S165 and now sells for $625.
 The price change has been made possible through lower costs of ma terials and the fact that we are now located in our new tractor plant, with greatly increased economic manufac. turing facilities in immediate connec- ton with our foundry and machine shops and large blast furnaces where iron IS poured directly from the ore. giving us maximum efficiency with the power to reduce cost of reproduc- tion.
 There is no change in present Ford car and truck prices, which are already at che lowest possible figure, and now with rock bottom reached on the tractor price a further reduc' tion in prices of either car, truck or tractor is out of the question; in fact the big pice cuts have been made m anticipation of continuous maximum production and increases may be ne cessary before long if not obtained Therefore, present prices of Ford pro ducts cannot he guaranteed against possible increases"

Neglect Of Tires
 Is Bad Business,
 Says Bob BiXby

Unexpected outbursts from inner tubes originate from sins of omission and commission. By emphasizing the more glaring ones. says Bob Bixby. proprietor of the Bisbee Vulcanizing and Retreading Co. he can save the motorist dollars that would other wise be wasted
 Haste in replacing punctured or blown out tubes is responsible for a multitude of these sins. The right way to place a tube into a casing is to first partly initiate it. Then 1t should be applied carefully. the side bearing the stem always being kept in sight When it is in the casing it should be talced carefully and the fingers forced all around the tire to make sure the tale has been evenly distributed. A tube never should be inserted unless being partially in- Hated.
 In pumping a tube before insertion most motorists allow it to rest on the ground or on the floor of the garage. This practice is wrong. says Bixby. It allows the tube to rick up parti- cles of sand. cinders and oil which create friction and eventually tiny holes
 The right way is to place the tube over the left shoulder and pump with the right hand. Thus no portion of the tuDe will be allowed to touch the road or pavement. When the tube is we'll rounded with air and free from wrinkles it is ready for insertion in the casing. and then should be pump ed to the prescribed pressure.

Kerosene And Moth Balls Has Enough
 Kick To Run Ford

At some time or other perhaps nearly all of us have found ourselves stranded on the roadside without drop of gas in the tank and the near est place where it could be procured far away in the distance At s1cn times various methods have been re- sorted to in order to make our cars run just a little further along those long roads.
 l. B. Groves has a new story about a Ford salesman who was travelling along a country road one day in his own Ford, when he suddenly came upon a fellow Ford owner seated be- side his Ford at the side of the road Ford owners are more apt to offer aid to fellow motorists than most any other car owners so this salesman stopped his car and inquired if there was anything that he could dU.
 We'll said the man Il was just a settin' here awaitin' for some fel- low to come along with a flask of gas on his hip. Have you got any to Spare?"
 Unfortunately the salesman had but enough gas to get his own car back to the city. so was unable to give the man any from his own tank. He took stock of what he. had in his car and found about three quarts of kerosene in a canteen, which he kel't in case of any trouble with his cleo tric lamps. and about a pound of moth balls which he had just pur- chased
 He decided to try an experiment and mixing a few of the moth balls in with the kerosene tried it in the mans engine. It certainly had some kick to it. and that Ford started off down the road like it had all the cyl finders and power of an eight-cylinder car. Verify necessity is the mother of invention.

REAL SACRIFICE .NOW NOT TO OWN
 AN lUT OMOB|lE

The sacrifice one makes in doing without car is greater than the price of the car. according to Ben Mcconnell. manager of the Lowell Branch of the Southern Arizona Auto company.
 Aside from cars usefulness in business connections. shopping, etc, whole families are visiting such points as the Grand canyon. white mountains and the Roosevelt dam for about the same price as once could make these trips by public conveyance. Further, those with automobiles get the best of Sundays and holidays when an out ing is almost requisite.
 Who is not working bis car over time since the nice weather set in? And what is life without just a little pleasure mixed up along with it?

Mohawk Claims 5
 Essentials For
 Good Tire-Making

A ''fair-priced' tire must give the manufacturer and dealer a reasonable margin of profit and at the same time give the car owner good mileage for his money. It is not so much whet he pays as what he gets that deter mines whether the price is fair or not, according to W. C. Grubb. pro- prietor of the Western Vulcanizing company, Johnson addition, dealers for Mohawk Quality" tires.
 Thre essentials for fine tire produc tion. says d Mohawk plain talk are good fctory facilities. the best mater ials, and knowledge of and experience in tire making. All these the Mohawk Rubber company claims to have.

Special DtspatcI to The Tribune

ATLANTIC CITY, Feb 7.-FormeY
United States Representative John J..
Gardner, Civil War veteran and for q
half century an outstanding political
figure in New Jersey, died early this
morning at his home at Indian Mills,
Burlington County, N. j. He was sew
enty-six years old. Death was due to
heart disease, brought on by kidney
trouble.
Arrangements for the funeral will be
announced later 1t is understood serv-
ices will be held in the First Methodist
Church of this city.
Mr.. Gardner was the youngest man
that ever held the office of Mayor of
Atlantic City. His long record in Con-
gress also was unusual. He served
twenty years in the House of Repre-
sentatives from the I'd Congressional
District of New Jersey.
He was one of the most astute politi-
cal leaders that New Jersey ever pro-
duced. For many years he was a ma
tional character, taking the initiative
in such improvements as the parcel
post and rural free delivery, and was
always identified with agricultural and
labor legislation.
