TO FIGHT FOR TWO JOBS
H. r. Kline of Wakeeney May Face
Custer Proceedings.

IA f. EAAAkkG Oh W8A0G1scy May MT
Custer Proceedings.
It looks as tho Representative n F.
Kline Of Wakeeney may have to fight
both for place on the Republican
state ticket and to retain his job as
mayor of his home town. Kline has a
contest for the legislative nomination
in Trego county. He may also be
compelled to face custer proceedings
in holding his mayoralty job.
Kline has represented Trego county
in the legislature during the last three
terms. Peter De Boer Is now contest
ing Kline's nomination and has filed
proceedings before his county board.
Kline. who was in Topeka this week,
told friends that he anticipated custer
proceedings for his removal from the
mayors office. The trouble is reported
to have grown out of the primary
campaign for the Legislatures nomina-
ton.
Kline and De Boer are Republicans.

T IERBERT HOOVER says: "The motor
1 | truck has given every town an extended
radius of food supply by some so miles,
and thereby protects such vital matters as milk
and perishables."
Formerly 10 miles was as far as the farmer
could proftably haul his produce. The increas-
ing number of motor trucks on the farm is
making the farmer more and more independ-
ert of other forms of transportation. It is
extending primary market five times, giving
the farmer greater security and doing much
to insure him the full profit from his crops
and produce.
E. E. La Schum, Superintendent of Equipment
of the American Railway Express Company,
says that while the average mileage of trucks
is about 40 miles per day, they are capable of
making 100 miles without undue strain
This means that in every truck there are go
unused daily transportation miles, which can be
used when emergency calls.
The farmers of the 10 states served by the
Standard Oil Company (ndiana) own 1852
trucks. These represent unused, potential trans
portation of 2,794,92O miles per Iday-quite
enough to make the farmer feel reasonably in
dependent and to make the city dweller secure.
The value of these trucks to their owners, and
to the community, depends upon an ample sup
ply of gasoline and oils, instantly available
when needed.
The Standard Oil Company Qndiana), recogniz-
ing its duty to the public, has organized its dis
tributing facilities to a point where only
complete breakdown of public utilities can pre-
vent its supplying these trucks with oil and
gasoline needed, no matter in what corner of
the 10 states they may be.
In the cycle of service to which the Standard
Oil Company Indiana) is committed, the truck
plays just as important part as the automobile
and the tractor.
This entire organization is working as one man,
to perfect complete service, and to maintain
this service at such a maximum of efficiency
that no piece of automotive machinery in the
Middle West need ever be delayed single
moment of usefulness through lack of suitable
petroleum products.
