ROB FOREMAN STORE
Peoples Store at Foreman Was En-
 tered Wednesday Night.

Foreman, Oct. 31.-The People $ Store was entered by some unknown party Wednesday night, and $9.50 in money was taken from the register or cash drawer. The sum of $50 was left in the cash register on Wednesday night, when the store was closed, and the money was in five different draw CTS. It seems that whoever the cul- prit was. he had heart, as he evi- dently did not want to take 2ll the money the establishment had, prefer ring to leave enough change to do business on the following day. He took enough out of the five separate drawers to total $9.50, leaving $4).50 in the register
 Entrance to the building was ms de by breaking out rear window. There is, as far as we have beenable to learn, no clue to the guilty party.

HELPS PAY FOR GOOD ROADS
Vehicle Tax Was Applied to
Highway Improvement.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture.)
The increase in motOrcar regfstra-
lions and revenues In the United
States during the past dozen years
represents some interesting cOmpari-
sons. This is especially true in re-
spect to the use made Of the revenues.
In 1905 the total registrations were ap-
proximately $4,000 cars, paying gross
revenue Of about $4,000, or roughly
the same as the returns from the Dis
trict of Columbia for the year 1918
Furthermore in 1905 the gross regis
tration revenues represented less than
three-ten1hs of l per cent of the total
rural road and bridge expenditures for
that year. In 1918 the motor-vehicle
revenues; represented approximately
q per cent of the total road and
bridge expenditures for that year. Fur
thermore, while in 1906 practically
none of the motor-vehicle revenues
were applied to road construction or
maintenance, in 1918 nearly 81 per
cent Of fhe gross returns, or $46,935,-
SOL, were devoted to this purpose in
46 states. and of the total amount ap-
piled to road work IT per cent, or
$3.50, 161 ,4T3, was expended more or less
directly under the control or SUPER
vision OF the state highway depart
ments.

Motor Truck Heavily Loa ded With Farm Produce.

Peddling farm produce from "side-
door Pullmans'' is market outlet
which some producers have followed,
as, by accompanying car Of their
produce Oh the road and selling direct
ly from the car door to dealers and
consumers in number of small towns
they realize remunerative return from
their marketing operations. In most
Of the places where this method of
"car peddling" Is practiced the pro-
ducers take out g license from the
authorities which gives them tempo
rary selling privileges, such licenses
costing from $40 to $25 apiece. This
system Of self-service craftsmanship is
applicable only in regions where the
growers have no cooperative associa-
ton. 1t would be extremely unwise
for the individual producer to go on
the road In active competition with
an extensive selling organization.
Cut in Profits.
The growers also must bear in mind
the fact, although the returns from
this method Of selling at first may ap-
pear large. they will be cut down to a
great extent by his expenses, the time
consumed, and the consequent neglect
of his regular business. This practice
may result also in lowering wholesale
prices, inasmuch as the grower may
be anxious to get away and may sell
at figures which the regular dealers
would not accept. Car peddling Is

more common in the West and South.
west than in any other sections Of the
country, but has decreased under re.
cent demurrage and traffic regulations.
Reaching Markets by Trucks.
Direct delivery by wagon or motor
truck is practicable only where the
farmer lives within 25-mile radius Of
the consuming center. Hence this
method Of marketing affords an outlet
only for the commodities produced in
the area Immediately surrounding the
market. Such deliveries are limited.
In the main, to country towns and
smaller cities. The automobile truck
undoubtedly is enlarging this service,
but it probably will be limited to a
very small portion of the total prodnc-
be expected to form an outlet for the
great bulk of farm crops. Again, the
development Of cities, with their con-
slant encroachments upon outlying
country districts, forces production
areas farther from the market centers
and In the larger cities makes II
practically impossible for growers to
deliver their produce direct to con:
sumers. The best examples of sue
cessful direct deliveries by growers to
consumers are found In the sale of
fresh fruits and vegetables in small
country towns and deliveries from
neighboring farms through residential
sections of most Of the larger cities.

600 soldiers being dismissed every day
from the service, and these men will
have rather a difficult time Of 1t until
the industries of the country can re-
instate them into civilian jobs. Now
Is the time to spruce up that motor
car, to put that necessary coat Of paint
on and to overhaul it generally. You
will be daing a patriotic service to the
country in getting soldier or two to
do this work for you. Col. Arthur
Woods, assistant to the secretary Of
war, recommends the employment Of
ex-service men for such reconstruction
work.
There Is no more need for emergency
economy. Minor repairs add to the
life of things. Paint adds life to the
body of the car. Spruce up your en-
CINE. Renew those worn parts. Your
car will 60 quicker, will run smoother,
and weae on it will be lighter.
Materials are expensive now
paints, machine parts, cost more than
they used to few years ago. But
they will save more than their value
In their service to the car.
Don't wait for materials to come
down. They won't. Rather is the
contrary to be expected. And If you
wait little too long, you will have to
put on an extra coat of paint, and
more parts will wear out. Spruce
up" your car now.

FROM WAR TO PEACE
IN MOTOR INDUSTRY
Automobile Trade Did More Than
Its Bit to Help Win War.
Fleet Of American Trucks Coming In.
70 Use for Additional Transporta-
tlon Facilities Needs Services
OF Released Soldiers.

AS a single industry the automobile
trade did more than it's bit to help win
the war. Not only did manufacturers
come up to specifications In quantity
and quality Of delivery, but they built
better than it was thought they knew
how. Proof of this was given the 9TH
er day when, at an auction of old army
cars in France, the French and the
English bid higher prices for the cars
than they cost the American govern
ment new. An army of men was em-
ployed to run these trucks and cars
on the firing line. They gained more
experience In a month of that sort Of
work than they could have gained In
a lifetime Of peace work.
The rolling stock will be left abroad,
but the men are coming back. They
are being released daily from the mill
tary service, and are returning in large
numbers to civilian life. There is no
lack Of work for them to do. For the
fleet Of American trucks now coming
into use for additional transportation
such men-men who have learned how
to act in any emergency, who feel al
most Immediately the idiosyncrasies Of
every motor, who have acquired an eff
cheney under shell fire that will make
them leaders in their work In peace
times.
Col. Arthur Woods, assistant to the
secretary Of war, who is in charge Of
the Unemployment work for ex-service
men, announces that a number Of such
men, are now available for private en-
ploy. The automobile industry Will
not lose this opportunity of obtaining
men who, to their pre-war ability, have
added the exceptional training and ex-
perience Of months on the firing line.
