Some years ago there appeared ac-
counts of the use of traction engines for
hauling freight on the road and for
plowing. Tho reports then were that on
a few hard and level roads in dry
weather these engines did fair work.
We often see these engines running
about at fairs, and we have wondered
whether, beyond the work of hauling
thrashing machines from place to place,
they are of real service on the ordinary
country road. The leading American
manufacturers do not appear to be able
to give case where traction engines
are practically useful for road work.
The following candid letter from the A.
B. Farqnhar company to The Rural
fairly:
''We do not recommend traction en-
gines for either plowing or road pur-
poses, and have never known q single
engine to be used for either purpose any
length of time with satisfactory results.
Purchasers like them for the first year
or two, and then they begin to find that
they cost more than they come to. So
far as our knowledge goes, there are no
traction engines today in the United
states used successfully for road work
or for plowing. We consider our traction
engine as good as or better than any
other, but we write any one who wants
traction for either road purposes or
plowing that traction engines are not
adapted to this sort of work.
The great interest now being taken in
"horseless' carriages in Europe will
most likely start some sort Of boom
for steam freighting in this country.
of course there are many places where
steam wagons for hauling freight would
provo of immense benefit to farmers. 1t
must be understood, however, says the
journal quoted, that tho country roads
must be greatly improved before steam
engines can do fair work ON them.
From every point of view the farmers
are interested in better roads
