HAULED WHEAT
!. WITH engine

DENHOFF, Sept. 27.-The first
time that residents Of Denhoff have
seen grain hauled into this market
with q gas tractor engine was when
Joseph Engel pulled in eight loads OF
barley behind his new thirty horse
power gasoline engine. The weather
was too wet for plowing and besides
Joe had to empty some Of the bins
in his large granary to make room
for tho other grain which he has to
thresh. He therefore made up his
mind to kill two birds with one stone
and began hauling in his barley.
