Europe has not been crushed by the war and her

ear and the threshed grain to the bin.
1t will haul live stock to market, thus

Many Advantages.
A motor truck offers the farmer the
advantage Of prompt delivery Of his
perishable produce, thus reducing
waste through decay, as when han
died by wagon or railroad, and turn
ing into cash crops which would other
wise be lost. Through its speed It en-
ables him to run his farm with less
help, It increases the radius Of land
profitable for market gardening and
small farms around the cities, and will
pay for itself in the first six months
Of use through the actual net saving
It will make on any modern farm.
With oil these advantages and with
the absolute certainty Of successful
operation. there is no good reason why
the American farmer should hesitate
to purchase motor trucks today.

MOTOR TRUCK ON
FARM IS USEFUL
OF Utmost Importance to Get
Various Foodstuffs to Mar
ket in Quick Time.
Big VEHICLE IS efficient
Increased Number Of Trips Alone
Places Car In Lead and Proves
Its eonomy-Heavy Truck
Has Many Advantages.

Time Is the farmers capital. The
difficulty of employing adequate help
has discouraged more than one prac-
teal farmer from raising the crops
which would pay him the greatest
profits.
Always he has realized that to mar
ket the crops was of such prime i'm
portance that he could not afford to
stub his toe" by growing foodstuffs
which he would not be able to get to
market on time.
Frank Andrews of the department
of Agriculture, bureau of crop esti-
mate, has made very careful inves-
on the farm and the results he has
arrived ut are amazing. Mr.. Andrews
says In part, "thc estimated cost Of
hauling In wagons from farms TO ship
ping points averaged in 1918 about 30
cents per ton mile for wheat 80 cents
for corn and IS cents for cotton; for
doing the same hauling in motor
trucks the averages are Is cents for
wheat or corn and 1S cents for cot
ton. The motor truck will make an
average of "a round trips per day
over an average route from farm to
shipping point Of 11.3 miles, while
wagons will make but IL round trips
over an average haul of o miles. The
increased number Of trips alone will
place the motor truck in the lead ana
prove its economy The fact Of the
matter Is that. taking wheat as an ex-
ample, the average wagon load was
SO bushels. while that of the load of
the average motor truck was 81
bushels" 49,

Found Most Efficient.

Not only are the heavy duty trucks
used exclusively on farms, but in
many sections where market garden
ing Is done the trucks of IN to two
ton capacity are found most efficient
by the truck gardeners. Where the
farm Is big, and the crops are staples
the heavy-duty truck is most effective.
but for the smaller farms the IN to
two ton truck is found most desirable,
and every investigation made In re-
cent years has proven that this size
Of truck Is the one best suited to use
on the farm.
The most important points for the
man operating a farm Of any size to
consider are these: Primarily the
truck saves time; the farmer cnn get
his breakfast ut home, so to market
and be back In time for dinner, which
was an utter impossibility when horse
and wagon we're used.
Releases Five Acres.
It takes FIVE acres of land to raise
bedding and feed for every horse on
the farm. When the motor truck sup
plants four horses II releases 20 acres
Of valuable land. which may ut once
be utilized for the growing Of crops
which will pay substantial profit
When the truck is idle 1t doesn't cost
n cent. When the horse isn't working
he must eat just the same.
Against he possible 100 miles day
which the truck can travel under load
good average team of horses can
travel 20 miles In ten hours-that Is

empty over good roads.
Think of the uses to which truck
can be put on the farm! 1t will haul
produce to market and bring return
load of supplies to the farm. 1t will
haul water TO the live stock; II will

ments to and from the fields; haul ma

with them and OF meeting claims and

take little interest. At the same time,
am Of the opinion that the confer
ence has made two mistakes because
they did not take the force OF public
opinions sufficiently into account. Not
al the representatives of nations in
Paris have been able to shake them
selves free OF the old traditions OF di-
plomacy and statecraft, and they have
not understood how necessary 1t was
to explain what they were aiming at
and how they proposed to achieve their
ends.
The conference has been widely ac-
| cused OF dilatoriness and lack of sys-
| tenn, yet the most favorable estimates
I could obtain in Paris, when the con-
ference first met, from responsible per-
sons qualified to express an opinion
was that the preliminaries OF peace
with Germany would be signed early In
May, and that the complete treaty

value in this world of sin. Yet if we
look at these resolutions we will see
that they define the first object Of the
league as the promotion of interna-
tional cooperation; that war is not
mentioned until the third object is de-
fined, and then the purpose OF the
league is said to be not the abolition
of war but the provision of safeguards
against war.
This shows clearly that the founders
OF the league are under no illusions.
They do not expect TO be able TO pre-
pare a document which will inaugurate
the millennium and make war impossi-
BILE. They hope TO arrive at that goal
by gradual stages. They realize that
all history teaches us that it Is i'm
possible TO prevent men from fighting
4 they are set upon It; that attempts
to stop nations preparing for war by
repressive enactments have always
failed in the past and will very proba-
bly, fail in the future. They hope 20
prevent war not so much BY reducing
ornaments as by removing the causes
which have made ornaments neces-
sary In the past, and they look chiefly
TO this.
The third of the resolutions makes
it clear that the foundation of the
league is to be permanent organiza-
ton and secretarial. that is to say.
there will always be in existence ma
chinery for bringing together round a
table to discuss international problems
the experts in each country upon those
problems. This is in Itself resolu
ton the full effects of which it is hard
to realize. 1t means that the doors OF
communication among nations will be
! flung wide, and that broad road
opened TO every country which cared
to tread Il, will replace the old tor
tuous channel of intercourse through
Foreign Offices and Ambassadors.
The effect OF these resolutions was
reflected in the very next business OF
the conference. which followed on their
adoption, for the plenary session then
appointed eight committees, and halt
OF these committees had TO consider
questions Of future international CO.
operation rather than questions arts

by the terms OF peace. Commissions

problems one day. African the next,
Asiatic questions on the third and
gone back to Europe on the fourth.
Later when tine committees had be-
gun TO report and it was possible to
get on with the vital question Of the
settlement with Germany. the Council
of Ten in order to expedite progress
split itself into two. the Council OF

taking over the drafting Of the peace
terms to he imposed on our enemies,
while the Council OF Foreign Ministers
went on with the remaining business
which had been dealt with by the
Council OF Ten. Japan is not repre-
scented in the Council of Four because
her Prime Minister Is not in Paris and
she is less directly interested in the
terms OF peace to be imposed on Ger
many than are the remaining four
great Powers. There has therefore
been some method in the madness Of
our representatives. but they would
have saved themselves a great deal OF
trouble II they had explained more
fully what that method was.
The second mistake which the Con-
ference made has brought even more
criticism upon il and was due to fall
ure to appreciate the psychological
effect OF their actions. All the peo-
Piles of the allied and associated Pow
ers are desperately anxious to get back
to the ways OF peace quickly and have
made up their minds that this will not
be possible until they know how they
stand with Germany. The Conference
has created the impression that it has
delayed the settlement with Germany
| in order to press forward the framing
OF the constitution of the League OF
Nations, which public opinion regards
as a matter requiring careful and de-
liberate consideration.
am not by any means certain that
attention to the League of Nations has
caused any real delay in the settle
ment with Germany. 1t certainly had
not done so up to the beginning oil
March, when left Paris. The com
mittees concerned with the prelimi-
naries OF peace had not reported, and
until they had done so It was diff

with the others and had its repor
