Maybe you can't do this safely with, your present make of balloon tires. But 'you can with the new' U.S. "Royal low pressure Balloons Because These tires hare the new U.S. "Low-Pressure Tread." This tread gives a much greater area of road contact than a round tread. It distributes the load evenly over the tread surface and reduces the weight on the individual tread blocks. This does away with early, uneven and disfiguring tread wear. U. S. Royal Balloon gives long service even at lower air pressures than have been recommended in the past. For in addition to this new Low-Pressure tread ' they are built of Latex-Treated Web Cord. The only cord construction in which tho cords are ' webbed together with pure rubber latex.

Only purity It's Nestle ALPINE Butner Declares Amount kf R,,lo D..f ! of Proportion Sale Is Handicapped. WASHINGTON, D. C, May 13. The firt plea from Oregon for low-! it freight rates on agricultural1 products under (he power granted 4 by the lloch-Smtth resolution 1 I reached the interstate commerce j j commission today, filed by the' j Umpqqua Broccoli exchange of; Jlloseburg, In accordance with the1 commission's request for views of ! interested parties. f j The brief sets forth that the cost lot producing broccoli 4n the Uiup-, l qua valley is from 80 to 90 cents a 'crate, while railroads receive Rl cents a crate for hauling it to Chi cago. During the heaviest ship ping period of last year, the rate ! on broccoli f. o. b. OreC"ra points, is declared tfo have been from 60 ; cents to 1. a crate, j Douglas county produces between 360 and 400 carloads of broccoli leach year, 1925 having been an ex ception on account of the unpre I cedented freeze which practically I ruined the crop, says the associa I tion's statement over the signature Jof Foster liutner, its secretary i manager. ! After encountering all hazards and expenses in producing the crop, requiring 12 months, the grower receives approximately the same amount as the carrier. Present plantings are estimated 1 at 6000 acres, and without disaster1 the 1926 crop will totul from 700 to 800 cars. But unless the freight rates are reduced tho grower will enounter heavy loss. The commission is also Informed by the Roseburg organization that beets, cabbages, turnips and spin ach are prohibited as crt- for truck farmers by the present level of freight tariffs ou tiietn. Brocco li in some years has been a profit able vegetable. It is declared, but must compete In the eastern mar kets with early legumes from all southern and southwestern states, which in most instances sell for less by the pound than the Ore gon product. Complaint Is centered chiefly against the present rate of $1.46 a hundred pounds on fruit and vege tables from the Pacific coasW to Chicago. i&i "We have hundreds of carloads of fruit thatj ould be marketed If the transportation companies would reduce their rates to the extent that we could at least! come out whole on our production and clear a profit of Bay, 2 per cent," say the broccoli growers. "The railroads are grieved because they cannot make at least 6 per cent net on their investment, and practically all the public service companies of several states have held they should be allowed at least! 6 per cent on their investments. But producers of agricultural products should have a rate of return equal to that of the transportation companies."
