The trucks set out from London, come as far north as Kincardine and netuyn, visiting towns by the way where Silverwoods have a 1opai branch and they carry away the cream the chickens or whatever other ' form of produce the'locat man has 'coll- ected. On the out trip they carry a sup ply of ice cream (in a refrigerator, of course), empty cream cans and empty boxes and crates for the fowl.

Al present they have only three, With the development of good roads on erence, wa a view the country, thls means of ,, transportation will doubtless increase, and it may be that a large portion of the long-distance hauling will be done with the motor truck. At the same time there will be a corresponding develop- ment of automobile traffic taking the place of the railway passenger traffic. Here is a means of relief from the oppression of railroads monopoly that people little looked for a few years ago. It is fortunate for the public that such an avenue of escape has opened up, , for the railways always unaccommodat- ing and extortionate promise to become more rather than less abusive. Traffic rates upon the public roads can never become extortionate because the roads being free to all any man who feels that he is being unjustly charged can put on a car or truck of his own. A serious handicap to motor trans- portation in this northern country is the snow in winter, There always. will be a season during which the rail- Ways have a monopoly of the long haul; but nevertheless, the mdtor truck and the auto most exercise a most sal- utary effect upon traffic, both passeng- er and freight.— (Lucknow Sentinel). 1v received and the minis- • dt' has. also been requested by the nference that where a horse is kept b the minister of a circuit that $150 bjeadded to his stipend for the keep of the horse, 1f this is given the country and city clergy will bbth be working on the same financial 'basis. .
