HOGS STAND THE TRIP BETTER IN TRUCKS

"Farmer* living from 20 to 80 miles from stock markets now haul most of their hogs to town by motor truck,” says Mr. WangeUn, local distributor of Parry Commercial Bodies and Ford Trucks. “The hogs stand the truck trip much better than in a wagon. Besides, it takes less time on the road and they lose less weight. It always meant a considerable weight loss when hauled to market in a wagon. In the summer, the farmer wants to make a night trip to market with a load of hogs, he uses his truck. The truck is unlike a team of horses. It’s never tired—always ready for service.
