DRY Mill have purchased a Duplex 4
wheel drive, 3 1-2 ton truck from
the Duplex Truck Co., Lansing, Mich

hauling in Kentucky. Tennessee or
Virginia. wherever needed. The
truck will carry sixteen foot logs

for lifting the logs on to the bed of
the truck. The apparatus in Ques-
tion is placed well back under the
seat. so that when the logs are put
in place the weight is evenly divided

be opened at various places around

seem to be prohibitive distances.
