John I Hawk--Reuses Tires

On the 10th October of 1925, this article was published in the Decatur Review newspaper:

OLD TIRE IS USED TO WATER CHICKENS
Old tires have been put to many uses, their utility not being destroyed when they are no longer fit for the road. But one of the latest uses to which it has been put is found on the John hawk farm in Harristown township, where an old tire is in use as a water trough for the chickens. The tire, not quite worn through, was slit all around the middle and the halves laid flat on the ground and filled with water. it doesn't need a diagram to show how accessible and convenient this device is.
