Biggest Rubber Shipments
Moues in Special Tram

One of the greatest shipments OF
rubber ever received in America in a
single lot is proceeding across country
from San Francisco to Detroit in a
special train of 26 cars. The weight
of the shipment is 2,240,000 pounds
The rubber is consigned to the Nor
gan & Wright tire plant of the United
States Rubber company. 1t arrived In
San Francisco from Singapore on the
Siberia Maru on March /, and repre-
sents part of the large accumulations
of crude rubber held back in the Far
East by the embargo on imrortations
To the rubber expert shipment oil
this size is a matter of amazement
more than to the average man unac-
quainted with the infinitely slow pro-
cesses by which such stores of rub
Der are built up. The shipment in
question represents the entire produc-
ton of about 100000 rubber trees for
an entire year, and the labor of more
than 1000 men for the same period.
Every working day of the year the
tappers visit every tree, collecting the
latex and making fresh cuts in the
bark. From the new cuts the valuable
rubber fluid begins to drip into the
porcelain cups. Any one watching the
slow drip would marvel that go slow a
process could ever produce e, trainload
of crude rubber. Each trees contribu-
ton is less than two-tenths Of an
ounce of rubber a day, or about four
pounds a year

States Rubber company in Sumatra,
with its 70 square miles of trees and
its $4,000 employees occupies strate-
g1c position among American rubber

Ship by Truck

When the motor truck came into be-
ing a few years ago, few people ap-
pretended that truck traffic was going
to be very considerable factor in the
transport of the future. No one
thought that the railroads could be
superseded for freight hauling; least
of all did the railroads and express
companies. Some time later the idea
entered the minds of both of them;
1t also entered the minds of numerous
truck owners. Still none of them rea-
lized the possibilities. The truck own
er did not think for a moment that
he with his trucks, could compete with
the express companies and the rail
road companies. 1t was generally con-
sidered that they had the monopoly
on freight and express hauling. The
war changed all that. When Verdun
was saved, when the defense of the
great Somme valley was accomplished,
when the Chateau Thierry victory was
achieved, each one made possible by
a victory of allied motors over German
railroads, the motor truck was put on
the map to stay. In this country the
railroads were simply flooded with
traffic; they couldn't begin to handle
the volume. They were submerged.
Moreover, they discovered that their
short hauls were unprofitable; that
the only traffic they could handle at
a profit was the long distance haul.
On the other hand, the truck owner,
driven to it by circumstances beyond
his control, began to convey both
freight and express consignments by
truck. He was surprised to find that
he could do it at a profit, and that he
could run his truck on schedule time.

Dodge Is Gum Best
Agent, Says Bethard

More than 100000 Dodge Brothers
motor cars have been built and Sold"
says Fred Bethard. These cars have
gone into every state in the union
They have rendered satisfactory SER
vice on practically every road in the
country
Nothing that / might say of the
car would be as impressive as what
people think and say of it every
where. It's standing in any community
is as strong a recommendation as you
could seek
Every time one of these cars goes
into a home it becomes an intimate
part of the family life of that home.
Its goodness is alone responsible for
the unusual demand for it that has
existed from the beginning. It's repu-
tation for steady, consistent perform
ance is so we'll and universally estab-
lished that it is taken for granted.
Dealers are called upon less and
less frequently to point out to pros
pective buyers the excellence Of the
several mechanical features. Their
efficiency and the riding qualities Of
the car are generally conceded.
in the same way, the reputation OF
the car for economy is so well under
stood that the dealer rarely has to
dwell upon that subject"
