acres
would make a big farm
AT Milford, Michigan, 1168 acres have
XjLbccn made not into a farm but into
a Proving Ground for automobiles.
Long before your General Motors car is
built, specimen models are sent to the Prov
ing Ground. This fleet is tested in actual
use. It has to meet every bad driving con
dition, from heart-breaking hills to slam
bang bumps. K
But that isn't all. Other cars of American
and European manufacture are bought and
put through the same tests, so that GcneralMotors always
knows how its products compare with others.
The tests involve speed, power, endurance, braking, rid
ingcomfort,handlingcasc;fucl,oilandtirceconomy;body strength cveryphasc of carconstructionand performance.
When the specimen cars are finally able to meet every
test, they are sent back to the factory. The car you buy
is made exactly like them.
The next time you examine a General Motors car in
your dealer's showroom, think of those n68 acres. They
would make a big farm. But they make a better promise
of proved car valut.

Tires'
$1,000 Each"
A CTUALLY, if you were willing to
" pay $1,000 apiece for tires, yon
couldn't get anything better than Good
year Double Eagles.
Here's why: Goodyear builds them
without a cost limitation of any kind
puts into them the finest of workman
ship and materials that money can buy.
On top of this fact, Goodyear enjoys
lowest costs through building MIL
LIONS MORE tires than any other
company. So you get these "$1,000
tires" for surprisingly little more than
standard tire prices.
