HOSPITAL CONTRACT STILL IN DOUBT ASHLAND. OREGON, THURSDAY, The Last lire! S a iu u la y M issis i'atterso n and Wilson, a l tue new n sn - land l i r e buop, sold w uat tney believe is tue lust of the old style tires In this sect.on. When they took over the property a t their location in the form er Claycomb Oil company propery am ong some other tires, tney found one, size 20 x 400, one out of style years ago. Mr. Wilson thought tn a t 102» was about the last year th a t ta r s using th at style and size of a tire was m anufactured. Any­ way, the tire of prew ar rubber was in the stock and S aturday afternoon, came a telephone call from Medford asking If they happened to have th at size. They did and the Medford buyer prom ptly took It. Mr Wdson says It is the last for the m anufacture of this size has been discontinued several years ago. There are a few cars on the road using th a t slz< but when their present tires are gone, they likely will have to take their cars off the road. Beieve It or not, P atterson and Wilson have one older tire a used one they will sell, size 30 x 3*4. and th at does go a long ways back, to the heyday of the model T. There are a lew trailers using th a t size, they say.
