Good ROADS Are
fine Gas SAVERS.
Test Results Show Many
More Miles Per Gallon
on Concrete Roads.

The most important single factor
towards the greater expansion OF the
motor truck industry Is the building
Of new main trunk line roads. as well
as resurfacing and maintaining of the
existing portions Of the systems wSich
advertising manager Of the Republic
Motor Truck Company, Inc, of Alma.
Mich.
IT have just learned OF a test that
was made in Ohio recently to de-
termine the saving in gasoline from
running a motor truck over a good
road. 1t is mighty interesting to me
and probably will be to most owners
of motor trucks everywhere.
Five new army standard "A"
trucks were used for trial. They were
sent over seven different types of road
surface on practically level ground.
THE test results showed an aver
age of SIS miles per gallon over a
dirt road in good condition. 7.19 over
fair gravel, 9.S9 over good gravel.
about the same over fair bituminous
macadam and good brick roads. 1l4A
over extra smooth brick and ll.7s
over good concrete
Here is a gain of over six miles
per gallon between the best and the
worst type OF road with unloaded
trucks. The trucks loaded showed
that the poor road took seven times
as much gasoline per mile as the
good one.
This being the age OF tho automo-
bile and the beginning of the motor
truck as a real factor In transporta-
tion, these figures speak louder than
words on the sound economy of good
roads. Furthermore, into these figures
enters no calculation of the wear and
tear upon an expensive machine In
going over rough roads. nor the time
lost. They are only to show that the
saving in gasoline alone must be fig-
ured as going a long way toward
paying for the construction OF good
roads throughout the country.
The opposition of farmers to the
building OF roads suitable to motor
truck traffic, which naturally costs
more than merely dumping gravel or
sand on such roadways and allowing
general travel to make a good road.
has, to a great extent, been overcome,
especially where good roads exist. In
such localities the farmer has found
that although his tax has been raised
to help pay for the roads he had been
able, by having good roads, to haul
his products to market in fewer loads
of greater weight and at a consider
able saving of time.
Everyone knows that motor truck
freight and express delivery is not
only the logical outcome of good roads.
but that the motor truck is the means
of building afterwards maintaining
the roads. And every bit of work
done to improve road conditions is a
boost for the motor truck industry
and business in general"

YANKS' RETURN
AIDS BUSINESS
Spirit of Welcome Causes
Trade Optimism, Says
Mitchell Official.

There is something infectious
about the spirit of welcome with which
our boys returning from the other
side are being greeted every day in all
cities. large and small. all over the
United States" says Vice President
r. C. Rueschaw. of the Mitchell Mo-
tors Company, Inc, Of Racine, Wis.
NO man can leave his desk and
make himself a part of the cheering.
welcoming crowd as the boys march
past on review and then go back to
his work without taking something of
this whole hearted spirit OF welcome
back with him And when he does,
the spirit finds its way into his work
and he looks on the future with a
more optimistic eye
THE infection spreads to all lines.
There is a general easing up as We
realize that the hard, pinching days
of war are past and We are rapidly
getting back to a peace basis. Natu-
rally business is bound to feel the
effects of this and certainly the record
of the automobile business shows 1t to
be the case
Auto Trade In Fine shape.
Zone of the signs of the return to
normal is a big demand for passen-
ger cars. 1t takes a long time for any
automobile factory to get back into
production, so that with only normal
demand there was a marked shortage
OF cars this spring.
1T is n popularity OF such a short
age that instead of dampening the
desire OF the people to own cars. il is
increased when they find difficulty in
getting them. Thus. as production
increased, demand increased even
faster, so that the shortage has not
been relieved and the outlook now is
that it will not be for a number Of
months to come.
Then. too. the best part OF the mo-
toring year is now with US. so that
many people who were in doubt as to
whether they wanted a car at once
are anxious to get one Immediately.
to take advantage of the beautiful
weather. All this helps to swell the
demand to a point where it is becom-
ing increasingly difficult to take care
Of all comers.
Naturally. that is a very healthy
condition for the automobile industry
to be in. and while we are making
every effort to bring the production
Of New Mitchell skies up to the de-
mand for them, we know that unless
the demand drops off sharply, we are
going to be comfortably oversold for
at least year to come. Our best ad-
vice to any one considering the pur-
chase OF car is to get his order in
early"

BIG INTERURbAN
TRUCK DEMAND
Business Men Realizing Its
Possibilities as Transpor-
tation Medium.

There is a strong demand for mo-
tor trucks among those business men
who are realizing the tremendous pos
sibilities OF motor truck transporta-
ton, from country to city and be-
tween cities" says W. L. Kissel. sec
retary and treasurer of the Kissel
Motor Car Co.
This urban and interurban motor
truck transportation idea mas gripped
the country to such an extent that II
is receiving recognition by the gov
ernment and I do not believe IL will
be long before this tremendous factor
will be recognized as being of more
importance than we now realize.
When the interurban electric rail-
way companies purchase trucks as
feeders to bring in freight and ex-
press to the stations at the end OF
their tracks. as they are doing In sew
eral places right now, il looks as IL
there is no limit to the adaptability
OF motor truck transportation"
