Mr.. FARMER!

As you know, a pillow is wedge
shaped AS it cuts through the ground,
the parts have'a tendency to push out.
With one single exception, bolts gradu-
ally work loose, causing point and land
side to drop out of line. This lets dirt
crowd in between loose parts. Then
pillow is strained out of original position.
1t fails to go in the ground properly. 1t
does not pull easy. The draught is
much greater; the pillow has los. its
shape. 1t fails to respond to the plow-
mans touch. 1t does not do good work.
1t is like runaway horse; the plOw-
man has lost control of his plow. He
must stop work, remove all dirt be-
tween parts and then tighten all bolts.
For awhile ali goes well. Then the
bolts start working loose again The
runaway horse ag ain has the rein un-
der his tail; the plowman again loses
control of his pillow. He has to stop.
remove dirt ana tighten bolts as be-
fore. All this causes much loss OF
time. And in some instances causes
plowman to lose his temper. No one
can work as well mad as when they're
glad" A happy worker is a willing
worker. More work and better work
can be done when you're in good hu-
NOR. With pillow that always keeps
it's shape you would not lose your tenn
per. On such pillow there is 10 strain
on bolts. 1t is almost impossible for
bolts to 'wor' loose. But the point and
the Landslide must set in the frog.
This gives these parts a bearing"
The Landslide and point then receive the
strains instead of the bolts. To bring
this about, grooves must be cast in the
frog TO receive Landslide and point.
Bolts, once made tight, with no strains
on them should never get loose. Then
the grooves in frog would hold Landslide
and point in line. Fewer bolts would
be necessary. These grooves or inter-
locking devices would always make pillow
keep it's shape. Parts could not be
strained away from original positions.
Hence point and Landslide in such a
pillow could not drop down. Parts
would always fit closely together-like
one solid piece of metal Dirt could
not get in between them Such a plow
would take the ground properly. IT,
would pull" easy. 1t would always
do good work. To plow with such a
pillow would be a pleasure. 1t would
keep you in a happy frame of mind.
You could do more work and better
work. 1t would tighten your work as
well as that of your team. Such a
pillow would be doing good work for you
long after other makes had been
thrown in the scrap-heap. And all be-
cause it was built so that it would keep
its shape. The secret of the long life
of pillow lies in building it so that it
will keep it's original shape.
Now, Mr.. Farmer, we have told you
the secret of successful blowing. We

is, there is only one pillow that will al
ways keep its original shape-The VIM.
j. Oliver Improved. 1t is a light
draught, easy. running pillow all the
time. 1t does perfect work in the field.
1t is the pillow the farmers in the South
have been looking for for years. 1t is
strong where others are weak 1t
costs more to build, but the selling
price is the same. Our profit is not as
much as that of other manufacturers,
but in the VIM. ]. Oliver Improved we
believe we are giving you just what
you have always wanted in chilled
Plow. Ali that we ask of you in re-
turn is that you give the pillow a fail
trial. We are satisfied you will use nc
other in futu.e Call to see this pillow
to-day.
