M0T0RTRUCK FEES DIFFER
No General Understanding Through
out tho Country as to Rate
to Be Paid.

At the beginning of 1919 there were
still % states in which mOtortrucks
we're registered at the same rate as
pleasure ears. Recent years, however,
have shown quite a general tendency
to increase the fees required for heavy
motOrtrucks. This increase usually is
based on the weight of the truck, its
carrying capacity, OF a combination OF
its carrying capacity and its horse
power. However, there Is as yet no
evidence of any well-defned general
goal toward which this movement is
tending. Some states are placing a
definite maximum weight which may
not be exceeded except In very special
cases; others are evidently relying ON
discouraging or limiting the S OF
very heavy trucks by making the regis
tration fees so large as to practically
prevent the realization of any profit ;
while still other states are making no
serious efforts except to limit the
weight of the wheel loads per inch
width of tire. The terms mOtOrtruck
and commercial vehicle, moreover, are
very definite. In some states the term
commercial vehicle as used includes
all trucks, while in others only those
vehicles used for hire are classed as
commercial.

local conditions and the prospects for
the development Of a profitable and
permanent hauling business In their
communities. They neglect to inven-
tory such critical conditions as the
volume Of farm products produced
along the contemplated routes, the vol
m Of miscellaneous hauling supple
mentary to regular loads; the cOmpe-
tition Of other carriers and the char
acter Of the highways yer which the
trucks must run. A motortruck route
established in a sparsely-settled or
~nonproductlve region is foredoomed to
failure. At least a potential supply
Of commodities must be available for
hauling IL there is to be sufficient bust
ness to make the route a paying one.
A region devoted to the production Of
n few staple crops which move to mar
ket during a comparatively brief sea-
son, will not provide business for a
permanent route. For successful op-

considerably more than is the cost
Of fuel and oil. Heretofore the outer
castings of tires have been made up
of a combination of woven canvas fab
ric and hard rubber. During the
past five years there has come onto
the market a new type Of casing
known as the cord" tire, which Is
rapidly gaining favor with motorists,
as they claim 1t is longer lived than
is the canvas fabric casing. In this
new tire, instead Of using q woven
canvas fabric as a foundation, there
is used a series of strong cotton cords
or string. The claim is that these
cords will not break US readily under
the varying strains Of country road
usage as will the woven fabric. II
one realizes that when the fabric is
worn or rotted out the tire is useless,
he will see the importance Of having

be used.-Farming Business.

OBSTRUCTION IN FUEL PIPE
Various Causes for This Annoying
Trouble, but the Remedy Isa
Simple Matter.

Sometimes the C tank of a
fuel system remains dry when there is
plenty Of gasoline in the main tank.
Generally this is due to foreign matter
making its way into the fuel pipe be-
tween the two tanks and obstructing
the passage Of the liquid. When this
II the case the simplest remedy con-
sists in filling the float chamber Of the
carburetor with gasoline-usually
drawn from the main tank-and then
starting the engine. This will clear out
the pipe line by suction nine times out
Of ten and the vacuum tank will begin
operating again. Sometimes II Is nee
essary to speed up the engine some
what In order to loosen the obstruc.
ton.
Occasionally the Gauss Of the trouble
is the stoppage Of the small air hole in
the filler cap Of the main fuel tank.
This should be kept open to give play
to the pressure Of the atmosphere on
the fuel.

ADVICE ON BUYING TRUCK.

There are several sources Of
information which may be
helpful to the man contemplate
ing the purchase Of a motor
truck.
Previous personal experience
Of the operator Is exceedingly
valuable. Experiences of other
operators may often be secured
for the asking. Motortruck man
ufacturers will be glad to fur
nish prospective purchasers with
such information Of this nature
as may be available. Data Sc
cured from truck manufacture
ers very often do not indicate
the conditions under which the
figures were secured.
Information thus offered Is
usually an honest attempt to aid
buyers, but almost invariably
there is too much generalization
to make such figures a very val
liable basis of estimation.
Many cost statements issued
by truck companies do not take
into consideration the varying
classes Of highways over which
trucks run, variations in the
load, total monthly or yearly
mileage and other important
factors.
A bulletin recently issued by
the United States department Of
agrlculture's bureau Of markets,
"Motor Transportation for Rural
Districts" will aid the prospec-
tive operator. 1t will be sent
free on request.
