COOPERATIVE
FARM PASSES

RUSSELL. Kans.. Aug. %. U.R)
Certain indications are pointed
out here that cooperative farming
is passing from Kansas and the
southwest as quietly but surely as
it came to this agricultural area
when cooperative" was a mighty
big word to the wheat farmers.
1t is seen as the beginning OF
the end, and there is none to shed
a tear.
Legal notice of sale of the prop
erty of The Southwest Cooperative
Wheat Growers association, the
Kansas Cooperative Wheat Market
ing association and the Kansas
Wheat Pool Cooperative Elevator
association, has been published II
the newspapers.
The sale affects property in this
and a dozen other counties of the
state; city property III Leayenworth;
two membership in the Kansas City
board of trade; one membership in
the Salina board OF trade, accord
ing TO available information.
High Pressure Move
The cooperative movement was
said to have been "high-pressured'
into this area. 1t was said organ
izers worked up and down the high
ways getting members. Several
business firms here in no way con-
nected with the marketing OF
wheat counseled against the move
ment.
The farmer was obliged to agree
10 sell his wheat, or a large portion
of It, to the pool elevators. He
drew down some money at that
time. Later, if his wheat tested
up TO certain standards, he got
some money. The procedure was
involved
The notice of sale includes two
elevators in this county; III some
20 others real estate, machinery
and city lots.

LOW PRESSURE
TIRE OFFERED
BY GOODYEAR

AKRON, O., Aug. 23.-Announce-
ment of a new Airwheel or low pres
sure automobile tire providing rid
ing comfort comparable to that of
oyerstuffed easy chairs is made by
j. E. Mayl, sales manager of the
tire department of The Goodyear
Tire and Rubber Co.
Eight major improvements are
listed as features of the new tire
including greater cubic air capacity :;
more rubber in tread and sidewalks,
larger cross sections; balanced de-
sign; flatter, wider tread power
ful breaker strip; natural shape and
more non-skid and total tread mile
age plus all-weather center trac-
ton and of course shock absorbing
Supertwist cord construction.
Goodyear's new low pressure or
airwheel tire has an interesting en-
gineering development background
eating to February, 1929, when the
tire was first introduced for air.
planes, later that same year being
used on Goodyear exhibition buses;
and afterwards on highway test
cars; used as changeover equipment
and announced to the public in the
fall of 1881.
Important features of the new
the are extreme comfort, made pos
sible because of the minimum air
pressure and maximum cushioning;
added safety through additional
rcn-skid design and supertwist cord
construction; better performance
with absence of vibration, strain,
preventing exhaustion to the driver;
and finally appearance = the air
wheel retains its shape throughout
its life and its sidewalks readily
cleaned and restriped in silver.
A majority of 1882 smaller car
models can be equipped with air
wheels of 6.5O-l6 inch size or they
can be fitted with the new tires in
7.OO-16 inch size, which is the over
size in low pressure balloons Tor
these same cars. Goodyear also max
es the TOOLS and 750-15 sizes for
several other cars in the larger pop
ular priced group TO be used as
tnangeover equipment.
In the new car field there are a
number of manufacturers whose
1898 models list the airWheel tire
as original equipment and others as
optional equipment for new automo-
blles, chiefly as result OF the car
owners request for them.
