IT HAPPENED IN THE WAIKATO.
He was a farmer. And he had a motor car. The road between his farm and “town” was neither macadam nor concrete, it was pure unadulterated mud of the stickiest typo and of considerable depth. In fact, it was just an ordinary New Zealand country road in its winter dress. This farmer motorist met a kindred spirit in town ono day and invited him for a ran to the farm, “only 12 miles out.” Tlioy started and soon after leaving the comparatively clean streets of the town the stranger began to doubt his wisdom in having accepted the invitation. The car ran into mud that grew deeper and deeper, and still that fanner drove on as if he were driving along an asphalt surface. Before long they passed two of three cars stuck hard and fast, waiting patiently to he released by the aid, of powerful draught horses. And still that farmer man’s car kept going strong, ploughing through the mire without sign of skidding or sticking. ’The farm was reached in a very short time considering the condition of the road, and the visitor ha.d a look at the ear that had put up such a performance. He noted carefully that the wheels were fitted with Barnet Glass “Boomerang” Tyres, and that every cover was practically as clean as a whistle. This is an actual experience and quite in keeping with many other similar feats of “Boomerang” Tyres, which are famous for their absolutely non-skid qualities. The “Boomerang” grips the road surface at any angle and ihe unique design prevents dirt from clogging the tread. Use this Britishmade non-skid tyre if you want to travel in comfort and safely on any kind of roads.
