C INSIDER now the means by which many 7Vre have been riven maximum Traction, ... by means of a sandpapery" texture in the Rubber of their Anti-Skid Treads. Every time the Brakes are put on, to make such Tires prip the road, the relatively hard, unyielding, and compar atively brittle, texture of the Rubber m their Treads causes these Treads to grind amy on the pavement, to WEAR OUT fast at the point of contact The sudden efficiency of their grind ingTraction also tugs so sharply on the Rubber Adhesive between the layers of Fabric in Tire as to separate these layers. There is little "give" to them just as thero is little "slide" to them. So, they gain Traction at the expense of Mileage, Naturally such Tires require a gi-cat BULK qf such Rubber in order to deliver reasonable Mileage before worn out And, therein they differ radically from GOODRICH "Barefoot" Tires. Because, the Safety-Tread on Goodrich Tires is made of "Barefoot-Rubber," a new, and exclusive compound which discards unnecessary whitish "frictional" ingredi ents that are heaviest and inert as proved by their lighter weight - H S03 FJE1.H.

S5M ERE is how it acts in Automobiling, When the weight of the Car bears on this dinrinsr "Bardoot-Rubber" Tread, and the power is applied to go ahead or reverse, the wonderful stretch in the "Barefoot5' RubBer Sole (or Tread) of the Goodrich Tire acts as a sort of Lubricant between the Fabric Structure of the Tire and the Road. Then, the Barefoot-Rabbet "Toes," of the Goodrich Safety-Tread Tire, CLING to the pavement (instead of grinding against it), in such manner as your 'Jare Foot would cling to a slippery surface without Grind, and so, with the minimum of Frictional Heat or Wear for maxi mum Traction. Goodrich "Barefoot-Rubber" is now made into Goodrich FABRIC Tires, -Goodrich Silvertown Cord Tires, Good rich Inner Tubes, Goodridi Truck Tires, Goorfrici. Motor Cycle, and Bicycle, Tires, as well as into Goodrich Rub ber Boots, Over-Shoes, Soles and Heels. Get a Sliver of it from your nearest Goodrich Branch, or Dealer. Stretch it thousands of times, but break it you can't That's the Stuff that GOODRICH Black-Tread Tires are made of. Goodrich- THE B. F. GOODRICH CO.

The mining deal over the Queen of Bronze property seems to have put new life Into the mining Interests of this section. Since the consum mation of that deal prominent min ing men are here exploiting our min eral resources. From present activities, the indi cations are that some big deals will be made In the near future, Fidler gulch property being particularly prominent in the negotiations. Among other mining activities, it may be noted that the Tennessee gulch property known as the Rose- burg group has been leased by Messrs. Husleton and Wagtfer for a term of years to a syndicate known as the Kerby Mining and Developing company. The lessees will ; InBtnll machinery and proceed with exten sive development. The development of our mining Interests and the coming of the rail road, which seems now assured, and the development of sugBr beet indus tries will serve to place Kerby and Illinois valley on the map. . , CopyrlBbt by Griffith, from American press Aiwoclatlon.

Editor Courier: Those who were privileged to hear the" recent ad dress given in this city by Bluhop Rowe, of Alaska, concerning bis work In that large field, must have been Impressed with the magnitude of Its scopo and benefits. In extent jit has been carried during the twenty years of his unfailing seal and effort ifrom Sitka to Tolnt Bnrrow, and has embraced not only the care and edu cation of the natives but that large ibody of men which has drifted to that country from all over the world, j Of the hardships, perils and haz ards encountered at all seasons In 'the establishment of mlsiitons, hnspl 'tals and worklngmen's clubs. I need 'not hero speak, but rather of the jneed of that general and generous support Bishop Row should have In I the prosecution of his arduous work. As he fittingly remarked, that while 'Alaska belongs to the whole country. It seems to be particularly Identified jwlth the Interests of the Pacific coast, .commercially as well as geogra phically, and that to the people of these western states ho naturally j looked for the support and assist ance necessary for the maintenance 'of its missions and hos'dtals. The thrill of his appeal must have starred many hearts to the Importance of this work. Under Its sMmulus the members of St. Luke's guild of this city v have already Inaugurated an auxiliary branch for the conduct of such effort as can be encouraged to respond. They feel, however, that the privilege, to be wholly effective, should be general, and not limited, and they desire through your col 'umns to give the matter greater pub licity than could be accomplished by a persons! canvass. Already the ,work of preparing a box of needed supplies Is under way. The list furn ished Includes articles of clothing to be made for the nurses and children, blankets, bedding .'and hospital or l"flrst aid" supplies. The guild room on Fourth street will be open every Tuesday afternoon from 2 to 4 'o'clock until Easter, for the receipt of contributions, either of money or 'suitable material for making the (garments required. At other times such donations may be left at the rectory on D street. I It Is earnestly hoped .that the j people of Grants Pass will be In clined to respond to this appeal promptly and In that generous spirit which can forget self for service. ' HARRIET C. FIELDING, !
