I think they will do all I expect of them.” A. F. Bird, manager of the Pure Milk Da Says in regard to Motz tires: “I have used Motz tires on my delivery trucks for the past seven months, and I can safely state that there is nothing that can touch them for wear. Not only that—they take the vibration off the car, and are the best for the milk trade that I have ever had.” “The Grand Six” A BIG CARLOAD OF THREE - PASSENGER ROADSTERS AND TOURING CARS HAS JUST ARRIVED. - “Pneumatic tires can't hold a candle to Motz tires when it comes to the dairy business,” said H. W. Soules, manager of the Brooklyn Dairy. “I have Motz tires on my trucks now, and they have proven very satisfactory. The is very little vibration, which makes them excellent for the dairy delivery business.” 4 IF YOU’RE LOOKING FOR THE TRUCK TIRE THAT WILL SAVE YOU MONEY SEE US 7 John S. Baisden, inc. 10th and E.
