MOTOR TRUCKS
TAKE PLACE IN
RETAIL 7 RAOE
One Auto Said to Have Done the
Work of Five Horse Wagons
at Less Cost.

While motor truck users generally
cease TO measure the efficiency of the
truck by the mere unit of the dollar
involved in either FIRST cost or cost OF
operation, save within certain limit
lines, after they come to know the
real function of the vehicle. and pre-
fer to regard It as an essential be-
cause 1t makes possible better trans
portation, costs nevertheless are In
teresting.
A Chicago publication has lately
been gathering certain statistics as
to the cost of motor trucks operated
in the service of retailers. and finds
some striking comparisons, measured
by horse truck standards. The fol-
lowing figures are taken from the
books of the merchants themselves:
Here is the net result of AS ex-
perience:
Four horses and single
wagons, at $500 to
Two auto delivery wag-
ons, at $1,000 :. -, 1000

which did the same work based on
these figures, would be about as fol-
lows:

COMMERCE MEN
CALL 1874 TRADE
OUTLOOK BRIGHT
Various Industries Are Adjusting
Themselves to Changed
Conditions,

Trade prospects for 1914 are bright
according 10 the report of the Cham
Der Of Commerce Of the United
States The report adds:
amy general statement as to the
condition Of manufacturing through
out the United States would at pres
ent be both misleading and inaccu-
rate, since this condition varies &C
cording TO the locality and the nature
of the product.
THE textile industry is adjusting
itself to changed conditions resulting
from the decreased tariff rates. but
the effect so far does not Justify pre-
Vious apprehensions. The paper man
ufacturing business is below normal
while shoe manufacturing is good,
with prospects of an advance in
prices. This is true, likewise, of the
leather tanning business. All man
ufacturing connected intimately with
the railroad and with the steel and
iron industries is necessarily feeling
the depression of these two great
branches of business.
An impartial survey OF the situa-
ton seems to warrant the statement
that, while the price of cattle will
probably continue high in the future,
the various agencies mentioned will
gradually work for a more abundant
supply and more reasonable price.

Runs Two Stores, One
Cash, Other Credit

An interesting experiment is being
tried by a merchant in the West who
owns and conducts two stores in the
downtown district. on the same side
of the street and within a stones
throw of each other The owner of
these two places devoted to exactly
the same line of business, has worked
out a plan which he believes will re-
suit in advantage to his customers, as
well as to himself
At one store nothing but cash"
trade Is handled, and customers are
required to make their own deliver
les At the other place the trade is
handled In the ordinary manner.
Goods may be bought over the coun-
ter or ordered by telephone. at the
customers convenience, delivery will
be made to any part of the city and
for customers whose credit is good
q charge account may be kept--the
same system that Is common with
most retail merchants in this and
similar lines of trade
The distinctive and most important
difference in the policies of these two
stores, however, is In relation to
prices. The proprietor frankly an
nounces the fact that as the cash
store will undoubtedly be conducted
at a much smaller expense, he will
make the prices at this place to cor
respond.
There will be no expense whatever
for delivery rigs and delivery men,
the expense of bookkeeping will be
virtually eliminated, the time OF the
help win not be taken up answering
telephone calls and taking orders. and
finally there will be no charge ac-
counts, with the inevitable losses that
accrue from this source.
At the other store, OF course, all
these conditions will prevail, and
while the prices for goods will be as
low as is possible to make them OPP
Grating under such system, the
prices will necessarily be somewhat
higher than at the so-called cash"
store.

Merchants and Manufacturers Bulletin
The Worlds Greatest
Cake Maker Erecting
Big Cake Plant Here
Atlanta Selected as Best Point for
Southern Factory--F. o. Stone
Operates In Several Cities.

F. O Stone, who speciaiizes in the
manufacture Of cakes and sends them
out in n package which he patented.
is erecting a plant In Atlanta. This
company now operates in Cincinnati,
Cleveland St Louis and other cities.
Mr. stone was the first baker in the
United states TO specialize on cake,
using pure butter exclusively and
marketing his entire product in II
dust-proof, germ proof package. Real
izing that the public was becoming
more and more critical, and justly so,
as to where and under what condi-
lions It's food was being produced, as
well as by whom 1t was made, Mr.,
Stone set about to perfect a conve-
nient and sanitary package in which
to convey his product, a moist, ten
der cake, direct to the consumer while
fresh.
On February 10, 1910 patent was
granted to F. o. Stone by the United
States Patent Office on the method
devised by him for wrapping and
packing his cakes.
Mr.. Stone is president and also the
active head Of the F. O. Stone Bak-
ing Company, Of Cincinnati, Ohio,
where as many as 10000 cakes are
baked daily; and to enable him to
better care for the rapidly increas-
ing demand in the South for his cakes,
Mr.. Stone has incorporated a COM
pany under the laws of Georgia, with
headquarters at Atlanta, to be known
as the F. o. Stone Baking Company
OF Georgia, where the same excel
lent quality OF cakes will be produced
and under the same names as those
which have made the name of stones
cakes famous for hundreds of miles
around Cincinnati.
Mr. Stone will be a resident Of At
lanta, and has already purchased a
home at No. PSI st. Charles avenue.
Although he expects to divides his
time between the plant at Cincin-
natl and the one located here he has
chosen Atlanta as the most desirable
place to live, and will devote the
greater part of his time here.
The f. O. Stone Baking Company
has leased the property at No. 81
Highland avenue, and Is having ex-
tensive improvements made there, re-
modelling and painting the place
throughout. Several carloads of spe-
Cial machines, built expressly for
cake making. are now being erected,
and it win be but a few days until
stones cakes will be In the mouths Of
all Atlanta
