MILLION GENTLEMEN FARMERS IN CDUNTRV CHICAGO, (United Pressk—Nearly all American farmers have come to he "gent'eman farmers,” declared James IL Howard, president of the National Transportation Institute, at a farmers and traffic men's con vention. “The term 'dirt farmer,’ doesn’t describe the American agricultur ist.'’ said Howard. "The reu' dis tinction is that the ‘gentleman farm er' doesn't do it for money, but in stead, pays money for the privilege of being a farmer. On that bas s the great majority of American farmers are 'gentlemen farmers.' The gentleman farmer Is above the necessity of making money out of CASPER CAB CD.

He is certainly entitled to call himself a gentleman farmer.'* GOODYEARIN LEAD AT BIG AUTO SHOW The slogan of Goodyear—" More People Ride on Goodyear Tires than on Any Other Kind"—was deeply impressed on the minds of the thou sand of people who visited the eleventh annual Los Angeles Motor Show, which was another triumph for Goodyear tire equipment. Os the two hundred and seventy nine passenger car models exhibited, ninety-five were equipped with Good year Tires, as compared to forty eight on the tires of the next near est competitor. Out of twenty-nine trucks using pneumatic tire equip ment Goodyear Pneumatic Truck Tires were on e'even and of the twelve eolld-tired trucks exhibited, Goodyear Solids were on four. In ad dition, all four passenger motorbuses on display carried Goodyear Pneu matics. P. K. Goe. manager of Manufac turer's Sales of the Goodyear Tire & Rubber company of California, in commenting on the 'arge amount of Goodyear original equipment on the cars displayed at the Motor Show says, "Many people perhaps do not realise that Goodyear has been en joying about 40 per cent of the en tire original equipment business of the countiy for the past three years, a fact which speaks well for the quality of our tires."
