THE TRUCK BUsINEss

Up to this time there has been a E lot of uncertainty in the truck busi- mess Each year has brought it's crop of mushroom truck factories and each syear bunch of orphan trucks has
 been dumped on the naTket Some of the largest manufacturers have stated that they feared the wildcat competition much more than that Of more substantial com mpanies- The req fson is that the investment in a truck 3tIlat is inferior to begin with and has mo responsible company back of it is 4iabIes to antagonize the buyer against tt11e whole truck proposition.

ARM CHAIRS IN AUros.

An automobile with arm chairs in stead of the regular seats is the lat est style offering of one conpany building cars. This new car has four individual seatsTvertibIe arm chairs that are deep and massive and that turn around or move forward and back at will. The advantages of such a car are obvious It permits the passengers to face one another and enjoy the same sociability while mo- tor1ng that is obtainabIe in a room at home. The driver can move his seat as near to the steering wheel and pedals or as far away as de- sired Often car drivers seat is not the correct distance from the foot pedals for the wife or daughter, al- though convenient for the husband The parlor car, due to it's seating ar rangement and it's completeness of equipment with handy reach on the pie for women to drive. There is an ais1e-way between all four seats. In the rear of the body, which is shaped like a boat and is entirely upholster- ed, in the interior is a folding extra seat that is concealed, but that can be quickly lowered, making room for one or more passengers.
 Besides being comfortable and breaking the monotony of a. long tour this parlor-car seating arrangement makes it ideal when a party is seat ed in the car at a race course or when the passengers want to remain in the car. They can sfraternize" in this car and move around and turn at will as though they were in individual chairs in a room at home.

COLOR SCHEME FOR ROUTES.

Interstate road travel has reached its highest development in the New England States because Of their early recognition. of. the fact that highway progress means many visitors and consequent investment and an in crease of temporary and permanent residents.
 Chairman William D. Somer, of the Massachusetts highway commission has come forward with a color scheme for marking the main routes, not on ly of the Old Bay State, but of all the New England comnonweaIths In a communication to the Automobile association touring board the Massa- chusetts road head sets forth a sum mary of his marking proposition.
 Chairman S. Percy Hooker fof the New Hampshire highway Commission has already put into effect color scheme of his own, which he would. have to revise somewhat in order to meet with the Sohler idea of one col- or for routes north and south, anoth- CT color for roads east and west, and a third color for secondary and diago- nal routes.
 Former Highway Comn1isaioner Chas. w. Gates. of VernontJ and now governor of the -v Green Mountain state, Sconfronts the same difficulty as MT. Hooker in New Hampshire, be- cause the Vermont color scheme, while designating through routes, also denotes the kind of road, and what civil sub division is responsible for it's up-keep- One color indicates state highways, and another color specI- des what are known as state aid roads and hence all know that a blue marked road indicates state respon- sfbility, and a red road makes clear that the local authorities are in charge.
 Chairman Bennett, of the Connec- ticut highway commission has agreed that the Nutmeg state will partici- pate in any comprehensive plan, and Chairman Lyman H. Nelson. Of the Maine highway commission asserts the Pine Tree state will accept any color scheme agreed upon by others The highway department in little Rhode Island also announces it's vote in favor of the general plan.
 A conference of the New England highway commissioners will take in the near future, and Chairman Sohier, believes a plan can be drawn up which will make clear to the road traveller the interstate complexion of the New England avenues of com munieation-

POOR ADVANTAGE OF SUCTION


 One of the successful racing drivers several seasons ago won a leading po- sition in a big Indianapolis event be- cause he took advantage of the suc- ton behind the car Of the favorite Com parisons afterward showed that this maneuver added appreciabIy to the average speed of his own ma chine. This incident is mentioned merely to illustrate how powerful is the draft in the wake of a rapidly moving motor vehicle. Racing car designers endeavor to shape the car bodies with torpedo or turtle-back lines that the suction may be reduced. On the other hand many designers of cars for every day owners service have added materially to this back draft by lenders which sweep for down behind the rear wheels. While the noh-racing driver does not ob- ject to the small reduction in speed, he does dislike the resulting swirl of dust which hangs over the tonneau in dry weather and the muddy spray which bespatters the occupants of the rear seats in wet going

going have to provide. for 1t, and do so systematically, by giving the buyer less for his money.
 The moral of all this-when- you set out to buy a new car find out what what your old car is worth, and steer clear of the dealer who offers you half as much again for it. Depend on it the car he has to sell is not worth what he asks for it. or if it is, the manufacturer will soon be out of business. leaving you with a car on your hands that. has no backing and can therefore hardly be given away when you get through with it. In business, there is no such thing as something for nothing.

SELLING THE ROUGH STUFF TO

(By r. NJ. Murphy, Division of Exten.
sion, University OF Tennessee)
There are thousands of dollars
worth OF corn stover, straw, and other
unstable roughage going to waste
every year in the state which ought
to be sold to beef cattle, Mr.. w. H.
Neal, of Lebanon, Tenn, sold his
roughage at a good price this past
winter, despite the low price of cattle.
On October 10Th he bought SO steers,
weighing 5S.6O5 pounds at SIC, to
which he fed 100 tons silage, 100 bales
OF wheat straw 40 shocks OF shredded
corn, and tons of cottonseed meal,
He sold the cattle for 7hc. The
cottonseed meal cost him s2S.55 per
ton. The steers paid him s69.6S per
ton for It, They paid him for silage
$500 per ton; for straw, s2.6S per
bale; for shredded corn 1874 per
shock. He might have sold his silage
for $500 per ton; his straw for zoe
ser bale; and his corn shocks of SOC
apiece. He had in bis manure pile an
additional value of at least $4,000,
due to having fed cottonseed meal,
and his corn slower and straw were
also there In a most satisfactory con-

Quoted to demonstrate the use of lime

One hundred tons of limestone have
been provided by the company to the

In which the Division can secure the
eficient cooperation of the County Su.

Is to effect a rather loose organiza.

can be made.
II is earnestly hoped that both Coun-
