To a farmer, though, a tire is largely the product of the soil. Cotton and rubber, two principal materials of which tires are made, are grown by Nature. Firestone buys the finest quality cotton and in the Firestone Factories, the most efficient in the world, they produce the highest quality tires at the lowest prices, so that you may use these tires to operate your farm more profitably. To the fine quality Southern-grown cotton, Firestone adds an extra process that makes the cotton cords stronger, more flexible, and gives tires greater blowout protection and longer life. This process is Gum-Dipping and ig patented. In this process the cotton cords are soaked in liquid rubber. Eight extra pounds of rubber are absorbed by every hundred pounds of cotton cord. This extra rubber binds the tiny fibres together, k>yc? n?e euros a tacKy oase to insure more perfect union of cords to rubber, prevents friction and heat by giving each fibre a protective heat-resisting rubber jacket. All of this adds extra cost to making a tire, but not to you. In fact, it makes your tires cost you less "per mile" lixe cord enlarged showing how GnuDipping rota rubber Inside of CoM.
