One of the simplest problems in truck operation is the | '* of coal by motor, for the delivery of fuel com- ¢ fewer problems than almost any particular line of operation, because of the narrow variation in types ‘ A miscellaneous delivery business may have a load of weight, bulky materials one day, and the next be tired to handle a big shipment of machinery, heavy lic cargo of little bulk. The coal delivery problem, ™ r, is confined to the best manner of distribution of ied orders of a standard weight cargo. roa big adva efficient se neces >» pat up with ays tn get ship-b “ b ng the shown to be less costly than rail iou hing can b few different types of coal delivery fleet are with a stand Ss In the coal delivery prom-| 4rd three-ton truck, with additional | five-ton machines for handling de liveries to big consumers, and the five-ton trucks are needed, usually, }as automatic dump trucks.

Balanced Fleets There are comparatively few deliv eries to be made where the total load is leas than two tons, At times there | may be an emergency delivery of a small quantity, but this is seldom the case for the larger bulk of a coal company’s clients. | In one of the big cities of the Unit: | ed. Staten a typically well-operated | coal truck fleet is balanced about as | follows: | Oneand-one-halfton trucks, | Three-ton trucks, tour. Fiveton trucks, two. All of the fiveton trucks are of the automatic dump type, and the three-ton trucks were originally half |dump and half solid body. The re placements of the three-ton trucks, however, have all been of the dump j type, om the theory that when it i# possible to use the dump apparatus the time saved in cost of labor of coal handling is so great as to muct more than balance, in the long run the additional cost of the power-hoist ing machinery. This fleet is comprined of about 40 \trucks. In other words, with two of the oneand-one-half.ton trucks, the 0 company finds that it is covering one quarter of its total business, the two trucks being the ratio to the total in the fleet. FE of the comp: " business is with the three-tonm type of trucks, the balance being distr ib uted between the light and the STEAMER ORATOR TO heavy models, for #mali retail and the bigger heavy buyers Dump Types The company, however, is often | Ora forced to throw its three-ton trucks M into the five-ton field, and then uses f' the dump type excl handling of big sh | The tonanda-half truck is used her The Barney Oldfield | for the small consumer, whose cash | Ferr Tire on hand is not sufficient to enable 000 fe him to buy his winter's supp!
