Truck Doing Double Duty in Quebec Farm Trade
Neighbors of Raoul Dupuy in Quebec pay the farmer to keep his Model J Reo truck running for market deliveries. Dupuy uses the truck to haul farm produce to Montreal then returns with milk and goods for neighbors, averaging 20 hours a day of use. The Waterloo Auto and Supply Co notes the model’s versatility and efficiency. In Michigan a farmer uses a similar Reo for haying and harvesting duties. Robert Jackson failed to appear in police court after being cited for traffic ordinance violations and profane language, with a $10 bond forfeited.
