The Old-Time Prospector
—had to sink a shaft to make a test. Now he does his testing
with a portable drill quickly and economically.
Hob-nailed footwear for miners was the rule, too—until The B. F.
Goodrich Company made rubber boots and shoes with soles that Outwear
Sue/. Miners everywhere are finding that they do not have
to half-sole these wonderful boots and shoes—“Hipress”
soles outwear the hobnails themselves.
These boots are MOLDED—just like the U
famous Goodrich Automobile Tires—INTO l (
ONE SOLID PIECE. They can't peel, or crack, V,
or leak. “Hipress” is pure white in color and V
has a “Red Tine 'round the Top "to distinguish /
it from all other footwear. Look for tkaf “Red / Ij
Line’' because only “Hipress" Boots and Slices \1
