If you travel around your state and the neighboring
ones you will find many farmers who are handicapped
by lack of nearby tractor service They will surely buy
their next tractor from well.organi1ed concern like
the Case Company which has had "a years experience
in the agricultural field. You will also find farmers
owning Case tractors who do not worry. As you talk
and compare, 'your business judgment will make you
think of price and performance but also Of reputation
and experience behind the tractor. Price isn't ALL nor
quality. Yet Case leads in these two features just as
it leads in service Most farmers appreciate the work
done by us in their interest since we started in l842.
But sentiment alone is not making men choose Case
tractors They are coming to Case BECAUSE OF the
combination Of good polns-iow price, performance,
reliability and service

Says South Is
For Wilson And
Preparedness

T. R. Porter, staff correspondent
of the New York Sun, was in Jack
sonville Saturday, for political ar
ticle for the Sun. Mr.. Porter is
touring the South, feeling the pulse
of the Southern people towards
President Wilson, Mr.. Roosevelt, Mr.
Bryan, preparedness, neutrality, pro-
hibition,. and any other feature
which will have a bearing on nation
al politics. He has been through
Kentucky, Tennessee, Alabama,
Louisiana, Mississippi and Georgia
and is now covering Florida, after
which he will look into conditions in
the Carolinas. and the Virginias.
There is only one Democrat spoS-
en- of in the States l have toured so
far" says Mr.. Porter. HE. of
course. is Woodrow Wilson. There
is no second choice, with Wilson
eliminated, and that would come
only of Mr.. Wilson's own accord,
Southern Democracy would not know
whefe to turn. But certainly, from
what 1 have heard during my tour,
Southern Democrats will not turn to
Mr.. Bryan.
Pledged to Wilson
"Yet Mr.. Bryan has many friends
in Alabama. The Democratic State
Committee. which met two or three
weeks ago and demanded that all
delegates to the Democratic Nation
al Convention be pledged to Wilson,
is composed Of three-fourths strong
Bryan men.
'In the matter of preparedness
the South will undoubtedly stand by
Wilson. Especially does this seem
to be the case where the navy is
concerned. The South seems to be
willing to stand for a policy that
will give America the strongest
navy on earth. AS for an army,
that is something different. Each
Southern State talks adequate prep
aration,' whatever that may be, but
they leave it to the military officials
to decide upon the size of the mill
tary establishment.
No Roosevelt Sentiment.
II find mighty little sentiment for
Mr.. Roosevelt. Over in Louisiana
there is a live Progressive party {.
And Of course the members are for
Roosevelt. They have a candidate
for the governorship in Roosevelt's
