will lure the birds to meet and rest.
At the base Of the tree will be a large
concrete bath to provide the guests

DISCUSSED AT CHICAGO

for the Highway Transport confer
ences to be held in conjunction with
the National Motortruck show at chi.
cage during the week January 24-31 in

augural sessions of the conference.
will take place On opening night when
the speakers will be men of national
prominence and the general subjects
of highways and motor transportation
will be discussed with special refer
ence to the economic aspects.
Afternoon and evening sessions will
be held daily during the remaining
six days of each show. Afternoon ses-
sions are intended primarily for those
engaged in the motortruck business
including manufacturing, distributing
and service. Discussion will center
upon such subjects rs merchandising
and advertising, legislation for high.
way improvement, sales plans, service,
the motor transportation idea, and Cd
portunities in rural sections.

THOUSANDS OF
FARMERS TO ATTEND
TRUCK SHOW
Rural Districts, Where $4,000
Motortrucks Are in Use, to Be
Represented at Chicago.

While thousands of merchants, man
ufacturers, dealers and others inter
ested in motor transportation are 60
ing to Chicago from all parts of the
country for the national mOtOrtruck
show, to be held in the International
amphitheater, January, 24-31, the in
terest already displayed by farmers
in the show indicates that very large
portion Of the visitors will go
from the rural districts. They are
going not only to see the several hun
dred trucks to be exhibited by leading
manufacturers, but also to attend the
big transportation conference which
will be a feature of the show.
Farmers are the greatest truck u.s.
ers in America, and it is but natural
that they should be interested in this
ence. Last year more than $4,000
trucks were used in hauling farm pro-
ducts. In the past farmers were dis
cOuraged frsm producing anything
that they could not sell in large guam
titles and from attempting to market
the surplus of perishable products
they may have had above their own
needs because they lacked means of
transportation. Today all this is
changed through the use of the motor
truck.
Motor transportation has furnished
reliable and adequate means for the
production OF large quantities of PRO-
oocts at small cost Of shipping. The
motortruck furnishes rapid transrsur-
tatlon for the farmer and brings FRO
DUCTS to market in condition ITO
command the highest prices. It
serves time and labor of men and if
permits profitable expansion of side
INES furnishing wider marketing area
MOI only in the delivery of garden
products, but also in the matter of
delivery of dairy products and live
-stock has the motortruck proven its
worth on the farm.
1t was Herbert Hoover, vino said
tnat 5o per cent of perishable food
stu1ls IN this country could not leave
the place where it was grown because
producers are too remote from mar
kets. With the motortruck at the COM
mand of the producer there is little
reason for permitting foodstuff to rot
in the field for lack of transportation.
The success of the mot0rt1.uc]z in
the rural districts, however depends
to very large degree on the charac-
ter Of the roads Bad roads increase
the operating costs. At the motortruck
conferences the subject Of good roads,
motor express, trucking efficiency, and
practically all of the problems that
confront the operator, user and owner
Will be discussed by experts. Confer
ence sessions will be held each after
noon and evening.
