MOTORCYCLE NOTES

The motorcycle is gradually creep
ing into general use on the farm, and
is rapidly becoming invaluable to the
progressive farmer, especially in times
of emergency.
Recently on an Ohio farm an import
ant piece of machinery gave way in
the midst of some rush work for which
the farmer had called in number of
extra laborers The farm is located
outsider it appeared that everything
must be held up for several hours
while someone went to town for re-
pairs. However, as quickly as the ex-
tent of the break was ascertained the
son of the house appeared with his
motorcycle and in an instant was
speeding toward a repair shop. In less
than half an hour he was back with
the necessary parts. and in short
time everything was in working order
again.
Another incident showing the value
of the motorcycle on the farm, hap
pened in the same community.
4 farmer boy had met with an acct
dent and was bleeding to death. The
farmer tclephoned the doctor to come
| immediately. He then thought of the
time it would take him to drive from
/ town and decided he could not ge:
there in time to save the boy, if he
drove his horse and buggy. So he was
again telephoned and told not to start
| for the farm. but to be ready and sons
one would call for him. The other
son then jumped on his motorcycle
and was able to bring the doctor back
| in time to save his brothers life
