system of distribution; that is, it costs not less than 65 cents to handle 35 cents worth of foodstuff
 Tt has been mentioned in several reports that the California Fruit Crow CTS association has received on an average during the last four years $1.60 a crate for oranges. During this same period the average paid by the consumer has been $4.s0 a crate.
 In most parts of the United States at the present time we who drink milk
 must pay about 14 cents a quart for it. The farmer, as a rule, receives from , to cents a quart. There have been many instances of farmers selling to-
 matoes at 50 cents a bushel, while the l sterekeeper is selling them to you and me for s. The same general imitation
 of values between producer and con-
 sumer seems to apply in most items
 that go to make up our daily meals.
 Tt was not very long ago that the | mayor of Indianapolis bought potatoes
 from jobber in a town about 100 miles from the city for 50 cents and sold them to the people of Indianapolis for 1 75 cents. At the same time potatoes were selling through regular channels 1 for S2. The mayor handled the sale at a cost of 26 cents a busheI The farmer had received 40 cents- In other
 words, the jobber, the commission
 rouse and the retailer were receiving
 S1.60 on each bushel of potatoes for
 transportation and their share of the profit.
 Ut looks to the Firestone ship by truck bureau as if the solution of this very vital problem lies in the motor
 truck and the development of good
 roads, If the farmer could put his
 bushel of tomatoes, or potatoes or
 other products of his labor and his
 fields, on a motor truck, which would drive up to his door every morning, and this motor truck were to deliver direct to the consumer or a group of consumers, the farmer would not be able, without serious danger to his con- science, to charge us $1 or $2 for haul ing that bushel of food to our doors.
 Doesn't this sound reasonable?
 ''The railroads handle their ship ments in just about the same manner,
 so far as results are concerned, as the present-day marketing system handles our food. They have a lot of short and | expensive branch lines which it costs them considerable money to operat tss since there is not enough business to keep them busy continuously, and since there is necessity of transferring the shipments from one line to another and from one car to another.
 If the motor trucks operating on the route I have already mentioned
 were to haul shipments over good roads to the main-and paying-lines of the railroads, the branch-line business could be done away with. The loss it represents would go toward decreasing freight rates on the main lines. The ultimate consumer should benefit. s'Ship by truck, as advocated by the | Firestone ship by truck bureau, would remedy lot of things that are causing 1 a great deal of worry and rgument today

ESSEX MOTOR
 |S PATENTED

An interesting fact which has put Essex in class by itself according to Dulmage & Dunbar, is that the Essex motor is patented. Essex performance is therefore patented, for it is pro- duct of that exclusive invention. The patented Essex motor, no larger than many which produce only 20 to 30 horsepower at limit. develops 55 horse power And yet it is one of the small est automobile motors. Despite its un- usual power it has all the small car advantages of economy in fuel, oil and tires. It gives the big-car kind of performance and riding ease, with the reliability, distinction and luxury of the costly cars.
 These are days when men are talk ing a rigid account or car expense. WaSteful types are passing; factors of economy, heretofore little considered are now of first importance. In the case of the Essex, owners have found it's greatest saving is not merely in fuel, tires and oil. Conspicuous as these are they find it's endurance and consequent freedom from repair ex- pense constitute the greatest economy.

by E. Farr, chief of the Firestone ship oy-truck bureau of Akron, which has branch in Phoenix
 The system at present used in mar keting food is glaringly expensive ana, therefore, wrong,'' says Farr. New and better-conceiyed methods in the distribution system are necessary. The problem involved without doubt sur passes every other in the economic field at this time of general business reconstruction.
 The trend of the times is to give the producer greater share of that which he produces. This applies to the farmer as well as to the mechanic, At the same time, the chief effort is put forth to reduce the cost of living to the consumer. Between producer and con- sumner lies the distributor A study of the facts and statistics shows that he and those who assist him are taking an undue share of the money thrown into the market at the expense of producer and consumer.

 To secure a permanent union of one piece of rubber with another, vulcan ization is necessary. It is for this req son that small vulcanizing outfits are found in every tire repair shop. In view of the intricacies of the vulcaniza tion process it is remarkable to what degree of efficiency many of these repairmen have attained

PRICE IF FOOD T0 BE CLIPPED ] BY MOTOR TRUCK

If 65 cents out of each dollar the ultimate consumer now pays for food goes to those who have handled this foodstuff since the producer was paid his 35 cents for it, can this charge for handling be reduced in a great degree by requisitioning the motor truck on a larger scale in the present system of distribution?
 Ship-by- truck advocates are em- phatc in answering in the affirmative. The facts they muster to their sup port are set forth in a letter sent out

TO STUDY FOREST PROBLEM

Albuquerque, N M.-The Un- ited States Chamber of Con- merce has become actively in- terested in the present forest conditions, the future timber supply of the United States. Through it's committee on Ma tional Forest Policy, it is .at- tempting to get first hand knowl- edge as to present forest condi. tions in the United States in order that it may determine more closely the present and future forest needs of the country.
 This committee is holding a series of meetings throughout She United States at which it. in- terviews lumbermen, foresters and others who can give it in- timate knowledge of forests and forestry. The first meeting was held in New York on June, 27 and 2S to discuss eastern forest problems. From there the com mittee left for the Lake States where several meetings were held. The Rocky mountain, re- zion was next visited and at the present time, meetings are being held at Pacific coast points. The last meeting on the coast will be held at San Francisco, August 3 4, where the forest problems of the sou uthwest will be discussed.
 The United States Forest Ser vice is giving this movement it's support both by allowing the committee access to it's files and through it's mem bers, some of whom are appearing before it. District Forester Pooler,. in charge of the local office, who is to tell the committee of south western forest problems, will ap- pear before the committee in San Francisco, August 3.
 As a result of its studies the committee will make report to the chamber which may be the basis for referendum.
 The importance of the work of this committee to the United States is exceedingly great both because of the thorough way in which it is attacking the pro- blem and because of the large in- fiuence which the United States Chamber of Commerce has. The committee report is. therefore, awaited with a great deal of in- terest throughout the country.

CROP CONDITIONS GOOD.

General crop conditions in Arizona were better than one month ago. according to the government crop report just issued by l.. M.

Cotton prospects im- proved five points during the month. Pasture conditions con tinue very poor, though showers have been beneficial. The grow ing condition of Arizona crops on July l, expressed in percen tage of their 10 year averages (nos tke nOrmaD on July 1, was as follows:

GOV, STILL INVESTIGATING.

\ Phoenix, Aug. 1.-Gov. Thos. E. Campbell gave no hint today regarding what action he will take on the petition of a com mittee of taxpayers asking him legislature to consider reduc tions in the appropriations for the various departments of the state government next year. The governor, however, did con tinue his efforts to determine whether a special session of the legislature could make worth while reductions in the states expenditures.
 Letters were sent to all mem bers of the state legislature and | to heads of state departments not specifically mentioned in the | petition asking their opinions in the matter. The governor yes | terday sent letters to the heads of departments mentioned in the petition asking them to report on the possibility of operating on the smaller appropriations re- commended by the committee.
 The governor today asked heads of departments not men, tioned in the petition to advise him what economies they could make in the expenditures of the states money. He asked them to bear in mind the urgent need for reduction and savings in the expenses of the state govern ment.
 The governor asked the legis. latOrs to give the matter of re ducing state expense careful consideration and advise him regarding their views on the feasibility of the measures of economy suggested. in the peti- tion.
