ADVICE ON BUYING TRUCK.

There are several sources of
information which may be
helpful to the man contemplate
ing the purchase of a motor
truck.
Previous personal experience
of the operator Is exceedingly
valuable. Experiences of other
operators may often be secured
for the asking. Motortruck man
ufacturers will be glad to fur
nish prospective purchasers with
such information of this nature
as may be available. Data Sc
cured from truck manufacture
ers very often do not indicate
the conditions under which the
figures were secured.
Information thus offered is
usually an honest attempt to aid
buyers, but almost invariably
there Is too much generalization
to make such figures a very val
liable basis OF estimation.
Many cost statements issued
by truck companies do not take
into consideration the varying
classes of highways over which
trucks run, variations in the
load, total monthly or yearly
mileage and other important
factors.
A bulletin recently issued by
the United States department Of
agrlculture's bureau of markets,
"Motor Transportation for Rural
Districts" will aid the prospec-
tive operator. 1t will be sent
free on request.

MoToRTRUcK FEES DIFFER
No General Understanding Through
out the Country as to Rats
to Be Paid.

At the beginning of 1919 there were
still % states In which motortrucks
were registered Mt the same rate as
pleasure cars. Recent years, however,
have shown quite a general tendency
to increase the fees required for heavy
motortrucks. This increase usually is
based on the weight Of the truck, It's
carrying capacity, or a combination of
its carrying capacity and its horse
power. However, there Is as yet no
evidence of any well-defined general
goal toward which this movement Is
tending. Some states are placing
definite maximum weight which may
not be exceeded except in very special
cases; others are evidently relying on
discouraging or limiting the use of
very heavy trucks by making the regis
tration fees so large as to practically
prevent the realization of any profit
while still other states are making no
serious efforts except to limit the
weight of the wheel loads per Inch
width of tire. The terms motortruck
and commercial vehicle, moreover, are
very definite. In some states the term
commercial vehicle as used includes
all trucks, while in others only those
vehicles used for hire are classed as
commercial.

Hauling farm produce to market in
motortrucks represents one means of
the successful solution Of the "short
haul" one of the most difficult prob
lens which confronts the transporta-
tion expert.
The failure Of railroads to keep
pace with the expansion of the short
haul business; the development Of the
producing areas adjoining the larger
cities In proportion to the production
demands asked Of them; and the up
building of the motortruck manufac-
turing activities, as well as the re-
Gent war emergency crisis. have popu-
larized this method Of moving farm
produce to market.
First Make Study Of Conditions.
Pioneers have made mistakes which
should teach valuable lessons for
their successors. For example, too
many ambitious motor men buy their
truck first and then make study Of

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

Good roads are the greatest eco
nomic need for agricultural cOmmuni-
ties. This Is the answer of 200 prom.
inent farmers Of the state of Maine to
questionnaires which asked them to
summarize urgent necessities to bring
their districts up to the desired eco
nomic standard.
The farmers who answered the Ques.
tionnaires We're selected as those best
fitted to answer the questions, and
they were asked to furnish 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 q wide and interesting range.
The largest record of needs was good

cessity Of adequate highways. There
were 45 who asked for more farm

better marketing facilities, and 81 for
greater credit extensions by banks.

NEW AUTO TIRE FINDS FAVOR
Claimed by Those Who Have Used u
to Last Longer Than the
Ordinary Make.

Manufacturers Of automobile tires
are keeping right to the front In the
motor car industry. Buying new tires
to replace the old wornout and dam
aged ones Is one Of the chiefest
sources of expense in the ownership
and operation of an automobile. Even
with the lighter weight cars the tire
cost per mile Of travel is equal to, II
not greater, than the cost of fuel and
oil; with the heavy weight, high
priced cars using the larger sizes Of
tires, the tire cost per mile is often

considerably more than Is the cost
of fuel and oil. Heretofore the outer
castings of tires have been made up
of combination Of woven canvas fab,
ric ami 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,
as 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 series of strong cotton cords
or string. The claim Is that these
cords will not break as readily under
the varying strains Of country road
usage as Will the woven fabric. II
one realizes that when the fabric Is
worn or rotted out the tire is useless,
he will see the importance Of having

More than s45,oOO,OOO worth Of mo-

OBSTRUCTION IN FUEL PIPE
Various Causes for This Annoying
Trouble, but the Remedy 10 a
Simple Matter.

Sometimes the vacuum tank Of a
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 be.
tween the two tanks and obstructlng
the passage of the liquid. When this
Is the case the simplest remedy con-
sists in filling the float chamber Of the
carburetor with gasoline-usually
drawn from the main tank--and then
starting the engine. This will clear out
the pipe line by suction nine times out
of ten and the vacuum tank will begin
operating again. Sometimes 1t Is nee.
essary to speed up the engine some
what In order to loosen the obstruc.
ton.
Occasionally the cause of the trouble
Is the stoppage Of the small air hole In
the filler cap of the main fuel tank.
This should be kept open to give play
to the pressure Of the atmosphere on
the fuel.
