Ten bucks in Happy Canyon are
worth nothing but fun but In
France and Germany 1t is another
story. Among the yarns which in
svitably creep out from returning
soldiers is one which centers
around a few bucks of Happy Cam

OF old troop d and later of the
146th. field artillery, carried.
last year was sent few bucks
along with some Roundup folders
as a remembrance from home.
There were several hundred men so
remembered and Happy Canyon
bucks were about the most plenti-
full bucks in the American forces.
They soon came to have a high ex-
even passed as collateral in "crap"
games.
In France American money was
pretty well understood after the
boys had been there for a year and
more and Happy Canyon money
was seldom passed on the natives.
although rumor says many a ten
buck bill was turned in for its
equivalent in food or fun. In Ger
many It was dwifferent.
Kelly and a small group of SOL
dier friends were in the army of
occupation on the Rhine and rather
distant from sources of ready cash.

HAPPY CANYON BUCKS" ANSWERED NEEDS

Question of Dealing With Nicotine Has Thus Far Not Been
Successfully Answered.

Ito take a railroad trip to nearby
villages but 1t was very cold and
luninteresting riding in the dead of
winter. Upon stopping at a little
village where there were no Amer
lean troops they found several in
teresting looking young German
girls at the station.
The four boys felt certain that
they could do no worse by leaving
the train so they stopped in the
village and soon found themselves
spending their few remaining pieces
Of change on the young ladies. 1t
was very short time until they
found themselves broke"
isn't there any money in the
bunch ?" they asked each other.
Kelley felt through his pockets
and suddenly came upon a few of
the 10 buck bills he was so used to
spending in Happy Canyon. He
knew that American soldiers were
strangers to this German village
and he knew that then was no time
for the party to be broken up. SO.
with just as little ado as though he
had a long wallet of greenbacks.
Kelley produced the bills.
The German people were little
surprised to see the American sol
diers produce so much money and
spend it so freely but they took the
good-for-fun money and the boys
declare that even on the Rhine the
bucks lived up to their slogan,
good for nothing but fun" .

MOTORTRUCK FEES DIFFER
No General Understanding Ihrousn-
out the Country as to Rate
to Be Paid

At the beginning of 1919 there were
still % states In which mOtortruchS
were registered at the same rate as
Measure cars. Recent years, however
have shown quite general tendency
70 increase the fees required for heaVE
motortrucks. This increase usually Is
based on the weight of the truck, It's
carving capacity, or combination OF
its carrying capacity and its horse
mower However. there is aS yet no
evidence of any well-dcGned general
ooaI toward which this movement Is
tanding Some states are placing
definite maximum weight which may
not he exceeded except in very special
cases. others are evidently relying ON
discouraging or limiting the use OF
very heavy trucks by making the regis
tratjon fees so large rs TO practically
nrevent the realization Of any proht !;
while still other states are making no
eorious efforts except to limit the
,,.oioht Of the wheel loads per lnch
width of tire. The terms motorruch
and commercial vehicle, moreover are
very definite. In some states the term
commercial vehicle as used Inc.uc's

FARMERS FAVOR GOOD ROADS
Recognized as Greatest Economic Need
Of Agricultural Communities In
s Eastern States.

Good roads are the greatest eco
nomic need for agricultural communi-
des. This is the answer of 200 prom
inent farmers of the state Of Maine to
which asked them to
urgent necessities to bring
their districts up to the desired eco
uomic standard.
The farmers who answered the Ques-
tionnaires were selected as those best
fitted to answer the questions, and
they were asked to furnish a digest
Of the situation In their respective COM
munities with reference to acreage,
crops, farm improvements, civic and
social conditions, etc.
The definitions of the greatest needs
covered a wide and interesting range.
The largest record Of needs was good

OBSTRUCTION IN FUEL PIPE
Various Causes for This Annoying
Trouble, but the Remedy is
Simple Matter.

Sometimes the vacuum tank OF
fuel system remains dry when there IS
plenty of gasoline in the main tank
Generally this is due to foreign matter
making its way into the fuel pipe De-
tween the two tanks and obstructing
the massage of the liquid. When TINS
IS the case the simplest remedy con
sists in filling the float chamber or the
carburetor with gasoline-usuaiiy
drawn from the main tank-and iheh
starting the engine. This will clear out
the pipe line by suction nine times out
of ten and the vacuum tank Will beglh
operating again. Sometimes it IS nee
| essary to speed up the engine some
what in order to loosen the ohStrIc-
| ton.
Occasionally the cause OF the trOuDie
| is the stoppage Of the small air mole 10
the filler cap of the main fuel tank
This should be kept open to gave p4a!

considerably more than is the cost
Of fuel and oil. Heretofore the outer
castings Of tires have been MADE up
of a combination Of woven canvas 1ao-
rjc and hard rubber. During the
past five years there has come onto
the market a new type of casing
known as the cord" tire, which Is
rapidly gaining favor with motorists
rs they claim 1t is longer lived than
Is the canvas fabric casing. In this
new tire, instead Of using woven
canvas fabric as a foundation there
IS used a series OF strong cotton cOfds
or string. The claim Is that these
cords will not break us readily under
the varying strains of country roau
usage as will the woven fabric. IL
one realizes that when the fabric Is
worn or rOtted out the tire is useless
he will see the importance or having
this foundation material Of the very
best which is available and when car
he used.-Farming Business.

ROADS AS DIVIDEND PAYERS
Where Good Roads Enable Farmer to
Save One Hour Per Week he
Makes Big Gain in Year.

If farmer saves an hour a week
by being enabled to use good roads
as opposed to bad roads, it would
mean 80 hours a year; estimating the
use of man and team as being worth
Sc a day, this means saving of $31.2o
a year.
Suppose his farm is assessed at
$4,000, and the additional tax levy
due to the issue of road bonds by the
county runs to 81 per thousand, which
would mean so a year additional
taxes as against a saving of S3l.2O on
