harvest However, the truckers, particularly
those operating small farms or patches' are
wont to count upon each years productive
ness at a maximum and are correspondingly
disappointed when dame nature does not ar

had never had experience in farming OF any
kind. The tales told in recent years OF the
profifs and delights of trucking, the ease WIN
which the products can be disposed OF. and the
comparatively small outlay required for nVe
