It is always ready and quick trips may be made on very short notice. Every merchant knows full well that on an average of almost once a day an emergency arises where goods are wanted in a hurry. 11 a truck was handy the delivery could be made and a customer gained. Right notthere is a strong demand for a delivery service around Medford that is impossible bv wagon. Some firm will cover this service sooner or later WHY NOT YOU, AND WHY NOT DO IT NOW? TSti' We invite you to have a look at our new Buiek Truck. Let us demonstrate for .you show you what may be accomplished and give you the operating cost. REMEaLBER, when the truck stops, expense also stops. You'll find that a Buiek will be in service every day towing will not have to be resorted to, and you can do more satisfactory delivery service at less cost. HERE ARE SOME INTERESTING STATISTICS OF WHAT HAS BEEN DONE WITH DELIVERY TRUCKS Where Delivery Service Is Taxed. The four Oranges in New Jersey, together with neighboring villages, form a community with nearly 150,000 inhabitants, and yet are practically a suburb of Newark, covering a territory about five miles square. There is only one large store that of R. H. Muir in East Orange, N. J., and no wool dress goods nor women's garments are handled in the "De partment Shop of the Oranges," but quite a line of house furnishings, and, of course,, the ordinary smallware lines. "Comparatively few of our customers," said Mr. Muir to an Economist representative, "take their purchases with them, so we probably have a larger demand upon our delivery department than most suburban stores. "To handle our 300 deliveries dailjr we use gas oline cars. Each of the machines cover's about 56 miles a day on an average, uphill and downhill, on macadam, asphalt, stone pavement and ordinary roadway. Points to Consider. Tho chief point to consider, in my opinion, is to be sure and got a reliable driver who can take care of the car. Next comes the question of garage. Prom my own experience I advise merchants to store their own cars. "A car which has to stand the hard knocks that ours gets will need a thorough overhauling at least once a year, and you will get off cheap if tho expense of this is less than $100. Then, too, there are the in cidentals, such as punctured tires, renewal of bat teries, broken parts, etc., all of which greatly depend on tho driver. If he is careful your incidentals will not bo very large, but if you want to save a couple of dollars a week in wages you aro mor'o than likely to pay twice as much for ropairs. So better get a good mail and pay fair wages to begin with." Bonus To Chauffeur Their garage expense eo far exceeds the ordinary operating cost that it seems altogether out of pro portion. One merchant solved tho problem by mak ing an agreement with his chauffeurs to the effect that if the repairs and breakages on their cars averag ed less than a certain amount for six months they would get a bonus. If the amount was exceeded more than twice, he simply discharged them. A Quick Performance. Last Saturday, about half past eight in the eve ning, an Economist representative had a practical demonstration of the quickness with which deliveries can be made. The head of the housefurnishings de partment in Mr. Muir's store came upstairs where the Economist man was discussing automobiles with the proprietor, and asked if it would be possible to deliver two lawn swings that night. The man in charge of the delivery department said that both chauffeurs had gone homo, but he would run the ma chine himself. At 8:40 he went to the garage, three blocks away, got the car out, and at 8:55 had the swings loaded and started on his joiu'noy. The two places of delivery were about a mile and a half apart, the nearest over a half mile away from the store. By the time the car got back to the store it was 9:18. Such a performance would have been al most impossible with a horse and wagon. Here Is Actual Proof. As a proof of what these commercial motor vehicl' can do, the other day a car did thirty miles in rogul work and then was sent out at night on emergen service and covered twenty miles more in Staten land. Still more recently, another car did forty'ri miles in a single day. In the near futuro, tho Macy gasoline trucks be reinforced by six more, one a largo three-ton ery truck, to bo used for taking goods from the : store to the distributing station at Woodlawn. other cars aro 2500 pounds delivery trucks.
