AUTO TRUCKS NOW HAUL TRAILFRS.

w. S. Dickerson & Son own the
heavy autO-truck which hauls great
loads over the streets of Milford and
also over the good roads as far as
they will permit to the nearby towns.
Recently they have added a trailer.
large wagon, which is hitched to the
rear of their auto-tTuck, and to see
this machine with its trailer hauling
their heavy loads over the streets and
highways would cause amazement to
the people of even a dozen years ago.
From seven to ten tons or more are
now hauled as quickly between the
canneries and the shipping points as
twenty head of horses and ten wagons
could have performed the same work
a few years ago, and the crew that
loads and unloads the trucks, ride to
and fro with the loads. The brief
time between the loading and unload
ing points is the only time when ex-
pensiye labor is idle. The cost OF
maintaining the machine and trailer
is much less than the cost of keeping
the same number of horses tha would
have been required TO do the same
amOunt OF work. In a few more years
the farmers will adopt the auto truck
for their work, as they are already
CONG for the light driving in using
the automobile.

founders of the Milford Chronicle in

two years ago, he has been engaged in
business in New York, and retired to
pass the latter part of his life in his
Delaware home.
