Motor Trucks and Good Roads Equally Necessary“Anyone who works for good roads is working for everyone’s interest, including his own,” says Mr. C. M. Dunn, local dealer in the Chevrolet and passenger and commercial cars.“The producer and the merchant ne:d good roads so they can transportmore goods to their customers and so make more money.“The consumer needs good roads to link him more surely and efficientlywith his source of supply and to afford him a wider selection of better goodsfor his money.“Herbert Hoover, international food expert, said that fifty per cent of theperishable food raised in the United States never reaches a mgrket.“Motor trucks are enabling more to reach more markets with products in better condition. They are making it profitable for the farmer to raise alarger quantity and a wider variety of perishable produce. This results inequal benefit to the consumer.“But the motor truck has proved its economic value in this respect in spite of road conditions—not because of them.“In the few years that automobiles have been a perfected unit of transporta-tio ntheir benefits to everyone have made good roads a necessity. They have proved that if the fullest benefits of motor cars are to-be enjoyed there -must be good roads for them to travel on.“The better the roads and the more of them, the greater the benefit whichmore communities will derive. Every new road, every improved road connects new markets with new sources of supply. And the more closely andefficiently supply and demand are link ?d together, the better it is for everyone.99c.BARNESVILLE AUTO CO.DUNN, ManagerBarnesville, Ga
