Trying Out the Saurer Truck.

A six ton Saurer truck was recently installed by the Arizona Southwestern Copper company on the haul from Yucca to Copeprville, distance of twenty miles, and has made wonder full showing in efficiency and economy. On the twenty-seven mile haul the truck has reduced the cost per ton from fifteen dollars to less than five dollars. The Saurer truck was "a revelation to and caused considerable excitement in Mobave county by the reliable and continuous service given its installation. It has made regular trips on schedule time between Yucca and the mines without one minutes delay. A five ton load is carried from the station to the top of the Wallapai noun tain, distance of about twenty-two miles, in six hours, over a continuous up grade. Numer. ous deep sand washes have to be cross ed and seven miles of grade from ten to fifeen degrees have to be negotiated, but the truck has proven itself equal to the occasion. Where other trucks have had to be shoveled out and the road planed this truck has carried it's load over without stoppage on second speed. The heavy mountain grades are taken on first speed, the seven miles being covered in two hours and a.half. No overheating has shown in the engines on the first speed of these heavy gradients.
 The engine has shown great ef- ficiency on small consumption of oil. The following operating figures were made during the month:
 Gasoline, 19 gal. at 30 cents........5 70 Oil, quarts at 20 cents...-..........1 | % Grease. one pound.........................1 Driver one and one-half days
 at .........."...............6 % Total of visible expense. ...........12 82 Interest on investment at six per cent

 half II Depreciation at 10 per ceLt.."...2 67 RepalrS... Z 70 llreS... o5 Average cost per trip for upkeep and
 expense .........: ...22 6S Cost per ton per trip......"....... ".. 4 53 Former cost per ton. ................. .l5 % Showing a saving off,. ........... 10 46
 The saving to the company on each trip over that of the wagon haul is 52.30$. With the completion of the mill and the haulage from the mill to the railroad the truck will show a much greater saving, as practically all the haul will be on a decending grade. The showing made in the haul from the railroad to the mine could be still greater had there been loading facili- ties at the railroad, where the heavy castings had to be handled by hand.
