For  the  Smith  Form-a-Truck  added 
to  the  price  of  any  Ford,  old  or  new, 
or  any  1916  Maxwell,  and  your  one- 
ton  truck  is  complete. 
Smith  Form-a-Truck  places  farm  haul¬ 
ing  upon  the  basis  of  machine  efficiency, 
hauling  loads  to  the  nearest  town,  doing 
work  in  the  field,  and  accomplishing 
every  other  form  of  hauling  that  you 
are  now  doing  with  horses,  at  a  great 
saving  of  time  and  at  a  tremendous 
money  saving. 
Smith  Form-a-Truck  gives  a 
hauling  cost  of  5  cents  a  ton  mile 
— this  is  about  one-quarter  to 
one-fifth  what  it  costs  to  do  the 
same  work  with  horses.  And 
when  you  use  Smith  Form-a- 
Truck  you  save  three-quarters 
of  the  time  wasted  on  the  road 
by  slow  horse  drawn  hauling. 
Time  costs  real  money.  Figuring  $2.50 
a  day  as  the  average  wage,  the  three 
hours  out  of  every  four  that  Smith 
Form-a-Truck  saves  you  in  comparison 
with  hauling  by  horses,  represents  a 
daily  saving  in  regular  service  of  $1.50 
or  $450.00  each  year. 
In  place  of  starting  away  at  3  or  4 
o’clock  in  the  morning  in  order  to  be  in 
the  city  markets  early,  farmers  using 
Smith  Form-a-Truck  now  start  at  6 
o’clock  and  still  arrive  in  ample  time.

1  road  late  at  night,  they  come  back

M  spare. 
Working  in  the  field,  hauling  grain,  hay,  fer-
