Canadian Tires Best. Io an issue of the Whig reference was made to the cost of antomonile tires in the United States and Canada with this additional comment: "Not even the excessive protection seems to be sufficient for the Canadiaa com. pany which cannot manufacture for the price of the American tire plus the entire duty as good a lirgas the American." The statement; which was copied from another Canadian exchange ie fenied, a rubber manufucturer writin us from Montreal: ; "You evidently are not familiar with the tire situation in this country, ae it is the opinion of the most experi enced motor owners that Canadian made tires are thoroughly dependalsle on Canadian roads, and in cases of any tire trouble developing, it is much more satisfactory to obtain adpmst- ment from Canadian tire manofactur- ora. "Jt may surprise you to know that the percomtagef of replacements on Canadian tires, this season, is less than a tenth of one per cent. whilst the percentage of replacements on some 2 ivan tices sold in this country is as hizh as three per cent and foor per vent," Sample Hand Bags.
