Farmers Eligible
New Tires, Recaps
Farmers car oualify for new
or recapped tires, providing they
use their trucks or oars to haul
produce to and from the market.
Dean I. O. Schaub. director of
the State College Extension Ser
vice, said in discussing the tire
rationing system.
"The farmer who uses his truck
exclusively to tran.sport farm pro
ducts and food to market, and to
carry needed home supplies ic
the farm, is eligible for new tires
and tubes,” the agricultural
leader explained. "This includes
(he transportation of fuel for
farm machinery, fer'ilizers, and
feeds to the farm. On the other
hand, no new tires will be sold to
farmers for trucks that are used
to carry products to housewives
or other ultimate consumers.”
Dean Schaub said that the
term “truck” includes pick-lip'.
Farmers are also eligible to get
new tires for their tractor,? and :
other farm implements, providing
Jthey are not changing from .steel
wheels to rubber tires
Turning next to the eligibility
of farmers to receive recapped
tires, the Extension Director said
“Farmers who use their passen
ger cars to haul produce to and
from market because they have
no o'her practical means of traiir:-
pertation, are eligible to have
tires recapped or to buy recapped
tires. This eligibility also an-
plip'^ to farm workers and techni
cians who use their passenger
cars to travel within and to and
from farms essential to the war
effort.’’’
Dean Schaub said that farmers
who use the trucks tor important
purposes other than those that
make them eligible for new tires
also may qualify for recaps
