(Prepared by the t'nltod Btatea Depart

n.'inllns farm produce to market In
motortruck represents one mean of
the successful dilution of the "short

Method It Popular.
Failure of railroads to keep pace

When bolting parts together, do not
try to make the nut pull the bolt
through If the latter sticks. Tuke a
hummer and drive the bolt Into place.
Otherwise the threads are likely to
be ruined.
