along with the great national
movement for. better highways
comes the question Of weight Of
loads, speed, and many other fac
tors" says r. E. Fulton, vice presi-
dent of the International Motor
company.
"In the solution Of the matter.
plain, ordinary common sense
should prevail. Unimproved roads,
in good weather when they are dry
and sound, can stand great deal Of.
traffic with little or no damage.
They can even bear tremendous
loads if the width of the tire is suf-
icient. When these roads are SOL
i'd, big steam traction engines. with
thrashing machines or corn shelters,
run over them with no damage; in
fact, with benefit, as they act like
rollers.
Moderately improved roads like
wise can stand much traffic in good
weather. The big trouble with these
roads is that they are not what can
be called all year round roads. They
should be improved to meet the
normal requirements of traffic, so
that full benefit may be derived from
them at all times.
Large Loads Lower Prices.
"The weight of the load should
be determined on the basis of width
of tires. Routes between large cities
or important commercial and in
dustrial centers serve an enormous
tonnage, and the larger the units in
which this tonnage is hauled the
greater the economy. These routes
are main arteries of traffic, and
which increases the cost
of transportation on them is paid
for by all the people, regardless of
how far they may be from these
main arteries. When it is taken into
consideration that 50 per cent in
crease in the size of the unit hauled
makes a Is per cent decrease in the
cost of transportation, the matter
becomes one Of great economic i'm
portance with tonnage running up
into the millions" - a&

Better Truck Drivers
VIII Be Heritage Of
America From War

"Better motor truck drivers will
be one of Americas heritages of
war;" declares R. H. Spear, presi-
dent Of the All-American Truck Co.,
Chicago. with better drivers we
may expect to see trucks give =
higher maximum of efficiency, for
it is well-known fact that motor
trucks have been and still are in
many instances abused to . point
where it is surprising they give the
results that they do. The average
truck owner must employ a driver
and that driver may be endowed
with experience while just as likely
he may be poorly equipped with
adequate knowledge of truck opera
ton and care. The truck does not
belong to him and he gives it pun
ishment oftentimes which he would
not do if he thoroughly understood
the engineering principles of trucks
in general.
"The school of truck drivers COM
ing out of the war will be great
leavening influence towards sane
truck operation. The military truck
driver is required to learn his We
.hicle thoroughly"

Nearly as Many Fords in
Use as All Other Cars

No stronger evidence of the i'm
portant fact that the Ford motor
car has become a veritable part of
the life of the people, could be
asked for than is given in the regis
tration records Of the various states
which comprise our. country.
For instance, in the month of Jam
uary there were ll,450 cars Of all
makes registered in the state Of
Montana, of which 500 were Ford
cars. This means one Ford car for
every other car Of every make and
i3o over. This proportion is very
evenly maintained in the other
forty-seven states. There are more
than 100000 motor cars in opera
ton in the United States, more than
one-half Of which are Fords, &C

What Happens II Battery
Is Run Without Water

THE simplest and surest means Of
committing battery murder is to run
it without giving It water for any
length OF time" says Elmer Rosen-
gren of the Nebraska Storage Bat
terry company.
1.-THE very nature of the plates in
a storage battery demands that they
be constantly covered with cleo
trolye. This of course, means
that any loss in the electroylte
through evaporation must be inn
mediately made up.
"Any part of the plate exposed ia
the air loses its capacity for life and
becomes covered with white sui
plate. This is the effect Of lack Of
water on the battery plate itself.
"But the whole battery shows the
effects, for the capacity Of the bats
terry is reduced, and the normal
rate Of charge is too high" .
