steadily increasing number of
shippers are looking toward the motor
truck for the solution of their trans
portatiOn problems. Farmers are in
cluded in this category, and 1t may
therefore be well to point out, as the
result of actual experience of others,
the things they should consider in con-
nection with the use of mOtOrtrucks to
haul their produce to market.
In very few instances, say experts of
the bureau of markets, United States
Department of Agriculture, it is advis-
able for a farmer to purchase and OPP
crate mOtortruck solely for his own
needs, as tile initial investment, cost of
upkeep, and the limited time the truck
Is likely TO be in use make the venture
expensive and disprOpOrtiOnate ts the
convenience secured.
Where trucks are operated by pri-
vate individual for profit the OWL r of
the truck usually operates between
certain points on fixed schedule. The
farmer assumes no risk. He simply
pays whatever the rate for carriage
may be, and may find the use of this
means of transportation an advantage
over the railroad or over hauling his
produce to market himself by team.
At the same time it has often occurred
that when the farmer had learned to
deFend upon this service, the rates
would be raised to point that the
farmer could iii afford to pay, or that
another mOtortruck operator would
enter the field with the result that both
operators were compelled to go out of
business, leaving the farmer without
any truck service at all.
One Successful Venture.
1t may be well to consider the basis
upon which a farmer may secure mo-
t0rtruck transportation at a nominal
cost and create service upon which
he can place full reliance.
There are several cooperative mo-
tortruck associations in existence of
which perhaps the Farmers Co-opera-
tive company Of Hartford county, Nd,
has had the largest measure of sue
cess. The territory served by the as
ISOLATION is a very productive agricul-
tural region. Many of the farmers
ship milk to Baltimore, some raise
truck crops, and others practice gen.
eral farming.
The association rates on many COM
modities are decidedly lower than
those of the railroad. The members
say that the saving of time In market
ing their produce is a big advantage,
also. For example, when the farmers
hauled their produce to market by |
wagon they had to start out at mid
night and did not return home until
nine o'clock the next morning. Now, |
at least eight hours of that time is
saved for other work.
But while the Hartford county COM
pany has had considerable success, II
would not have been possible had the
conditions not been favorable for the

Factors to Be Considered.

A careful survey should be made to
determine the adequacy of present
| transportation facilities, the reasOna-
bleness of the rates charged, the ap-
prOximate daily tonnage available, for
| movement in each direction, the char
acter of the roads over which the
trucks must be operated and the gen.
eral sentiment of the community to-
ward such an association. The dis
lance from market should not be more
than 40 miles and there should be suf-
ficient volume Of produce to warrant
reasonably constant operation of the
trucks throughout the year.
1t having been concluded that the
cooperative enterprise will be a decid
ed advantage, only men who have dem
onstrated their business ability IN
handling their private affairs, and who
exercise a good influence among the
members of the community should be-
selected as directors. The secretary
should be a man with energy, tact
business ability and q high apprecia-
tion of the farmers interests. The
capitalization Of the association should
be large enough to permit the issuance
of enough stock to pay for the trucks
In cash, to assure sufficient amount
Of cash on hand as working capital
and to have enough unlssued stock to
provide for future sound extension of
the business, as we'll as depreciation
fund to replace wOrnOut equipment.
Make Service the Watehword.
The trucks should be selected only
after a thorough and unbiased ccnsid-
Grafton Of the various makes. Records
of performance, of cost of operation
and maintenance, furnished by actual
operators of trucks rather than by
agents of truck manufacturers. should
be carefully considered i'm he light of
present aud prospective needs of the
association.
In employing operators merit should
be the sole consideration. Rates should
be based on a careful analysis of COM
plete, adequate and accurate informal
ton regarding costs. Accounting meth
DDS should be simple but sufficiently
comprehensive to show the exact finan
cial status Of the association at all
times.
In determining matters of policy the
interests of the members as a whole
rather than as individuals must be CON
sidered. Service must be the watch
word. And to make the association a
real success, each member must fee
that 1t is his association.
