T HIS is to tell the People, that Goodrich “BARE
FOOT-RUBBER” Value lies not in its COLOR
but in its composition.
It lies in the especially devised Texture, Flexibility,
Cling-quality, Stretch, Lightness and Resilience of that
“Barefoot Rubber” which, through years of Research,
WE developed to match the marvellous Flexibility, Re
silience and Power-conservation of our two-layer-Cord
“Silvertown” Tires.
Color alone would have been little help in making
“Silvertown” Treads stand-up in the tremendous EN
DURANCE Tests which the 100-Mile-per-hour-Races of
1915 provided.
And Color alone,-—Black, White, Red, or Gray—can do
little for the Consumer who buys a “Me-too” Black-Tread
Tire, of imitated make, on the assumption that all Black-
Tread Tires are likely to be made of sqme materials.
T HE marvellous “Barefoot Rubber” now used
in Goodrich FABRIC Tires (as well as in Good
rich “ Silvertoivns”) is black only because we
elected that color, primarily for distinction and association
until our SILVERTOWN CORD Tires.
When, therefore, the usual crop of “flattering” Imi
tations sprouts upon the Market DON’T assume that
OTHER Black-Tread Tires have in them the “BARE
FOOT-RUBBER” which made the enormous ENDUR
ANCE of Silvertown Cord Tires possible in the 90 to
103 Mile-per-hour Races of 1914-15.
No Tiros on the Market, Size for Size, and Type for
Type, are LARGER than Goodrich, and none more gen
erously good, at any price.
“Barefoot Rubber” is now made into Goodrich
FABRIC Tires,—Goodrich “Silvertown Tires, ’’-^Goodrich
Inner Tubes, — Goodrich Truck Tires, — Goodrich Motor
Cycle Tires,— Goodrich Bicycle Tires,—and Goodrich
Rubber Boots, Overshoes, Soles and Heels.
Get a sliver of it from your nearest Goodrich Dealer
or Branch.

prices at which these best-possible Fabric Tires are being
sold, on a BUSINESS basis.

M. P. Jarnagln, Professor of Animal
Husbandry, Georgia State Col
lege Of Agriculture
Feeding cattle for beef during the
past two years has been fraught with
uncertainly because of unusual condi
tions caused by the war, high cost ol
feed stuffs and the foot,and mouth
disease.
During the year 1914 the price of
feeders was higher than during the
fall of 1915. The reasons assigned
are that therQ are not so many buy
ers in the field because of the price
of foodstuff. Here in Ceo.gia nnd
northern Florida there were many
western buyers during the fall of
1914, taking up thousands of cattle,
but during the fall of 1915 they did
not show up. As a consequence local
cattle are bringing less.
True, cottonseed meat is up, but
close figuring will reveal that the sav
ing in the buying price of the animal
is greater, at least that the time this
is written, than the Increased cost of
meal will amount to in a feeding pe
riod of 90 to 100 days.
The fact that there are fewer ca
tie being fed for the market Would
indicate good prices at marketing
tjrne. In view of these considerations
it would appear that this will be a
good year to feed cattle for beef In
Georgia, providing the farmer has
some home grown feed and a silage.
Potash Prospects
W. A. Wortham, Professor Of Agri
cultural Chemistry, Georgia 8tate
College Of Agriculture
Many Inquiries are being made as
to the prospects of obtaining potash.
In -view of the absence of the usual
supply from Germany. The indica-
cations are that the fertiliser dealers
are going to put on the market, for
the most part, a low grade potash.
Government Investigations of alunite
in Utah has developed that It Is a
practical source of potash, and some
of the fertilizer dealers are already
making UBe of it.
Not much progress has been made
In obtaining potash economically from
feldspar for fertilizer purposes, nor
has there been very much obtain
ed from kelp of the western coast.
From all these sources not enough
potash will be obtained to equal the
normal demand made upon Germany
and nothing at present Indicates that
when the war ceases this country "will
not again rely upon the German mines.
As a substitute for potash, the
farmer of Georgia will find that cotton
seed meal, if obtained at reasonable
price, may be associated with acid
phosphate and give good results.
About 1% per cent oi the cottonseed
meal is potash. Considering that many
Georgia soils are not deficient in pot
ash, this combination may give as
much satisfaction, generally speak
ing, as could probably be hoped for
at this time. ,
