Now the "FIivver" AirpIane.

The perfection of a small, simplI-
led airplane with a purchase price
and upkeep within the reach of the
average man, has often been at
tempted in both Europe and America.
One of the latest American attempts
has resulted in the completion of a
little monOplane, says Popular Me-
chanics Magazine, that measures
only twenty-five feet eight inches in
span, weighs only $50 pounds when
empty, yet is very satisfactory in per-
Torrance. The single-seat body is
of the monocque, shell type, with the
four struts of the pylon rising In front
of the cockpit. Bracing wires stretch
from the pylOn TO eight points
on the spars of the right and left
wing. Ailerons are of the wing tip,
unbalanced variety. A twin cylinder,
opposed engine drives the machine,
giving it maximum speed of seven
ty-tive miles an hour with load of
$50 pounds.

Now that farmers are buying motor
trucks in large numbers, it is desirable
that these trucks show not only an
economical performance but also that
they pay as big returns on the invest
ment as is possible to make them. As
one power farmer expressed it not
long ago, the motor truck takes the
last drudgery out of farming. This is
whole lot to say, but many owners
are finding it true. Not only that
they are also finding that the truck
makes money by saving money In re-
ducing production and marketing costs.
Advantages of Truck.
One of the big advantages of the
truck is that it brings the market
many hours, and even days. nearer the
farm; and another factor in this con-
nection which operates to bring farm
and market still closer is the trailer
behind the truck. Where conditions
are favorable to its use, the trailer
should be considered an essential part
of truck equipment.

Every Standpoint PneumatcTIred Truck Is Superior

Contrary to the general supposition,
Il is more dangerous to be In advance
Of, than behind, the procession In the
matter Of introducing improvements
in a motor car" said r. Fl. Akers,
sales manager of an eastern motor
car concern.
II am reminded of this by the fact
that just at this time all manufactur-
ers are either eQulpping motor trucks
with pneumatic tires or making 1t
optional with the buyer.
after the most exhaustive compars
alive tests with several trucks of the
same model, some equipped with
pneumatics and others with solid tires,
our engineers found that from every
standpoint the pneumatic-tired truck
was infinitely superior.
"First-It was more efficient for the
reason that 1t would travel at nearly
twice the speed and thereby make
twice as many trips in a given time.
upkeep Cost Less.
"Second-The upkeep cost was al
most unbelievably less, due to the
TACT that not only did we obtain more
mileage on set of pneumatics than
on solids, but that the air cushion eff
tects wonderful saving on the
shassis.
"Not only that, but after 1900 or
5000 miles the resiliency In the rub
Der has been exhausted or, as the mo-
Eorists say, the rubber tires (not a
pun, but meaning fatigue) and &C.
Juires more the consistency of wood
Than of gutta percha.
"Also our engineers found that the
Pullman herald. [volume] (Pullman, W.T. [Wash.]) 1888-1989, 1920-07-16

fuel consumption was less for the we'll
known reason that any pneumatic-tired
vehicle requires less power.
Another factor that was much in
favor of the pneumatics was the alb
sence of injury to loads of fragile ma
terlals. Perishable goods suffer less
in a pneumatic-tired truck than they
do In solid-tired vehicle, even though
the latter go at half the speed.
Lighting was another problem.
First we had kerosene lamps and
then came the carbide tank.
with some reason there was OBJ
lection to this on the ground that it
was dangerous.
"a lot Of people had to be convinced
that If the car got into smashup the
gas tank would not explode.
at sounds ridiculous at this late
date, but 1t is fact, that although
every motorist wanted to get away
from the drudgery and the danger of
cranking his car there was tremen-
dous opposition to every form of self
starter.
1--WE expected and were prepared for
a battle when we decided that the
right thing for a light, high-speed
truck was pneumatic tires, but we have
always believed it was our duty to give
the buyer the best our experience die
tated and so we went through with 1t.
Everyone now admits the pneu-
matic-tired truck Is inevitable, because
1t is the solution of most of the truck
ing problems, so we feel well repaid
for our missionary work"

Advantages of Truck

Trucks are usually equipped with
motors having considerable reserve
power, which is provided for pulling
heavy loads up grades or over bad
roads. If hauling to and from the farm
is over fairly level, improved roads, as
Is the case in great many instances,
the motor truck even when loaded to
capacity is capable of hauling a trailer,
thus being able to handle nearly twice
the normal rated capacity of the truck
without overlooking 1t.
Danger In Practice.
There is a danger, however, In this
practice of hauling trailers behind
trucks, because some owners are sure
to use them when highway and other
conditions are not favorable. The
harm In doing this comes in overload
Ing the truck motor beyond the ca
pacity at which II will work econom-
ically and efficiently, which is prob
ably the worst punishment that can
be given truck.-Power Farming.

 The case is that of the state against Joseph M. Crawford and Frank Mel son. It dl Il is by he superior court of Pinal county on the theory that even though the defenats might have attempted to produce liqour they did not succeed and hence had committed no crime, and anyway they were engaged in the manufac- ture of denatured alcohol which is ex- empt under the law.
 The higher court couldn't see mat ters this way, however, so the case has been remanded to the lower court and the defendants vii have to face the court for sentence.
