President Wilson receiving the dele

Improvement. John A Wilson first

Municipal Motor Trucks.
'One hardly would expect that nu~
inequalities would be the first to take
advantage of the remarkable econom-
les which the motor truck effects in
transportation" said X. r, ketchum.
branch. manager of the International
Motor company, but II is n striking
fact that municipalities throughout the
country have shown a greater alacrity
TO invest in motor vehicle equipment
than private corporations. Witness,
for example, that in one month"; May
1912. $125, 900. 600 worth of motor
truck apparatus was contracted for by
about 225 cities in the United States.
The reason for this is not far to seek.
City governments are discovering that
motorized public vehicle apparatus is
from 100 to 500 per cent more eco
nomical to maintain than horse equip
ment.
Our company has Just had two very
striking proofs Of the money earning
ability Of the motor truck from the
cities of Denver and St. Louis. The
city of St. Louis was the first city in
the United States to put in service a
motor driven, pressure regulated
sprinkler. This sprinkler has been in
service now about nine months. IT
is owned by the William r. Bush Con
struction company, which contracts
with the municipality to sprinkle a
large zone of its public streets,
Mr.. Bush. the president of this con-
tracing company states that since
this Saurer motor sprinkler was in
stalled it has averaged fifty-four miles
per day and has effected an economy
of from $40 to $25 per day over the
nine orse-drawn sprinkler carts
which this company formerly employ
ed for carrying out their contract.
"One of the principal points brought
out by Mr. Bush is that for large pc
riod of the year the eighteen horses
which were necessary to do the work
Of this one sprinkler cost So per day
to keep in idleuess, whereas their Sau-
rer motor sprinkler costs nothing out
side the nominal interest IN the invest
ment.
AN almost equally good record Of
the economy of the motor truck in
public service comes from the city Of
Denver. William Gfeary. superlnten-
dent of streets o. Denver, states that
their experience with the same type
of j. 400gallon pressure sprinkler
shows IA slightly better economy than
