/ Seo eer MONDAY, OCT. 27, 1919 CASPER, WYOMING Providing the right track fire for every road and load has been a Firestone responsibility since the first truck was built. Good roads have been slow to come—but trucking has gone forward regardless. pees keeping pace with the tracking industry, has solve 1 Hala after probicm, until trucks are hauling the great bulk of America’s tonnage and are strong allies of the railroads in inter-city traffic. Firestone engineers designed the first truck tire, and from that day to this the history of truck tire pmgress is Firestone history. : As the truck builders advanced they found Firestone ready, not only with the right tire but the right rim. Firestone introduced the channel type of tire, the removable type, the cup cushion type, the giant type, the grooved tread type. Firestone was first to build a. complete line of truck tires—a type suited to every road, load and condition of service. Firestone was first to establish adequate service dealers everywhere; over 600 now serving every trucking center in America. EARL C. BOYLE WYOMING DISTRIBUTOR TELEPHONE 9 Ship by Truck Firestone was first with a practical, efficient giant cord tire equipment, including demountable rims. And Firestone ig the only manufacturer that makes the tire and the rm complete. Firestone coger were ready, too, for the problem of quick changes for the giant pneumatic tire. Here they went beyond the tire and rim and designed a feature of whee! construction for truck makers, also a spare tire carrier device that makes one man able to change tires easily regardless of weight. These examples of Firestone Engineering ex- plain the success of the “‘Ship by Truck” movement. And-Firestone Ship by Truck Bureaus in all truck- .-. ing centers are giving daily aid to truck operators of all classes. Today over half the truck tonnage of Ameriga is carried on Firestone Tires. This is the reward of sound engineering; tires, tubes and rims of commercial perfection; service that is intelligent,-adequate and on the spot.
