THE AUTOMOBILE FOR THE MIL.
IONS

Gasoline is cheaper than oats when
compared on a mileage basis. Prac-
tical people like doctors, and farmers,
and, in fact, anyone who has much
driving to do are buying motor bug
gies to save both time and expense
Inventions such as the automobile
never disappear after coming into use,
but find and retain place Motor ve-
hicles will settle in the place where
most needed and each year do a wild
err variety of work, until finally they
will be recognized as the worlds great
est and most profitable means of trans
portation.
The motor buggy is fast taking the
place of horse and buggy The illus
tration herewith is of motor buggy
weighing only $50 pounds. 1t is a
practical machine for practical people.
1t will go anywhere that an automobile
will go. The wheels are 38 inches
high, fitted with solid rubber tires
Therefore the machine is adapted to
rough country roads as we'll as city
streets.
1t costs less to maintain than
horse. 1t consumes fuel only when in
actual USE If you do not use it for a
week you do not have to exercise, feed
or care for it.
1t will run from 20 to 80 miles on
a gallon of gasoline at speed of
from to Is miles per hour. In max
ing long, hurried trips there is no
danger of the machine firing out like
a horse. There is no danger of it's
overheating. When you reach destina-
ton you don't have to stop and hitch
or blanket it. 1t is so simple that
woman can run it,
1t is fitted with ten horse power
engine with double opposed cylinders.
1t is mechanically air cooled; there
fore, no water to freeze.
The machine has two speeds for
two chains from the countershaft with
differential. Is oiled by four sight
feed oilers, has jump spark vibrator
coils and six dry cell batteries. The
frame which is the part that carries
the engine is made of angle steel, is
fastened on either end on top of two
elliptic springs.
Mr.. Black, Pres of the Black
Manufacturing Co., 1875 East Ohio
Street, Chicago, ILL.,, manufacturer of
the Chicago Motor Buggy, reports that
they sold 1853 machines at the Chicago
Auto Show. About one-half were sold
to farmers, the balance were about
equally divided between doctors, trav-
cling men and other classes of people
who have lot of driving to do.
This substantiates the belief that
the time has come when the farmer is
going to ride in motor driven buggy.
The above company issue a catalog
which gives full information in regard
to this particular vehicle and three or
four other styles that they manufac-
ture. Full information can be had by
addressing Mr.. Black or his Company.

INCREASED PROFIT IN CROP Rails

ING.
The cost of living is today higher than
it ever was before. 1t has advanced
enormously in the last few years and
the farmer is one of the chief benetc1-
aries He gets more and more for his
products right along, and, thanks to up
to-date methods and labCr-saVlng de-
vices, he can produce more; with less
work and with less hired help,
than he ever dreamed of few -
years ago &A
One of the chief agencies GKA
tending to ameliorate his con- IA
dition has been the advent of 81 el
improved farm machinery. III

seed, and it usually saves its cost in
few months.
The Planet Jr tools are adapted to
garden as we'll as farm service. Some OF
the most successful market gardeners
find them indispensable and add mate
rally to their incomes by using them.
All of the Planet Jr. tools-there's
whole lot of them-were invented by
farmer, S. L. Allen. He used them first
then patented them, and finally put them
on the market. In this way he had
chance to demonstrate the practicable
ity of the tools and to perfect them; and
today, after 35 years of exploitation,
they stand, in point of quality and eff
cheney, absolutely unrivalled in the agri-
cultural implement field.
S. L. Allen & Co. issue very inter
esting catalog about the Planet Jr. tools,
and they are sending it to everybody who
writes for it. 1t is literally illustrated,
not only with pictures of their tools but
also with Photographic scenes showing
how the tools are used in the different
steps Of crop raising. Write for one of
these catalogs, whether you want to buy
