FIRST-Avery Tractors have
a special sliding frame on which
the engine power plant is mount
ed. This sliding frame makes
possible the elimination of the
intermediate gear, shaft and box
iDgs. Engineering authorities
say that each gear contact mean
a loss of from eight to ten per
cent of the power in the trans
mission, all of which is saved for
use at the drawbar in an Avery
Tractor. Because of this sliding
frame an Avery Tractor has the
least gears, the least shafting and
the least bearings of any two
speed, double-speed tractors
built-which means more power
and longer life.
S~ECOND-AllA Avery Tractors
have two rear drive wheels-no
single drive wheel construction
is used on any Avery Tractor.
Furthermore, all Avery Tractors
are regularly equipped with two
speeds-a great convenience
over a one-speed tractor-a slow
speed for blowing and other
heavy work and a fast speed for
light loads and travelling on the
road.
THIRD-Avery Tractors have
slow speed, heavy duty opposed
motors--not high speed light
automobile motors.

Not Our Views
The Pioneer Press has this
week opened its columns to
a propaganda from the Mon
tana Commercial 6 Labor
League, an organization that
seems to have mapped out
for itself the herculean task
of defeating prohibition in
Montana this year. / h e
matter is marked advertising,
with the name of the Asso-
citation signed to every ar
ticle, so no one need be de-
ceived as to the origin or re-
sponsibility of same.
The Pioneer Press accepts
this matter with the en-
phatic declaration that in no
way does it effect this papers
views or position on the issue
in question. This matter rep
resents one side of a legiti-
mate controversy. To shut
it out of newspaper because
it did not coincide with the
editors views would be mar
row and arbitrary and might
imply that the argument adj
vanced was SO logical and ir-
REPUTABLE that it would be
harmful to the other side to
publish it. The leaders of
the prohibition movement
in nation and state are pre-
pairing an assault on the wet
literature and it will be ad-
mitted to our columns with
out question. Our own views
will not be colored by the
controversy in the advertis-
ing columns. Our position is
pretty we'll known and it
will be restated with perfect
frankness a little later.

All Is Amity ~

The Cut Bank Pioneer Press in
quires whether the democrats of
Teton county are going to east in
their lot with the Stewart wing of
the party or the Walsh faction.
This newspaper does hot pretend
to speak for all the democrats of
Teton county, but so far as we are
able to learn there is no Stewart
wing" nor Walsh faction" The
republican newspapers of the state,
the Press included. are endeavoring
to engineer a split in the democrat
ic party. but they + not making
much hesdway. The democrats of
Teton county will express their in
dividual choice for the various an
didates at the primaries, and when
the ticket is named they will get be-
hind that ticket and work for sue
cess at the polls. This will probab-
ly be true of democrats all over
Montana. This bitter factional fight
we hear so much about exists only
in the minds of republicans.-Con-
rad Independent.
The Pioneer Press is glad
to be corrected by Brother
Busey, who seems sincere in
his assurance that democrats
all over the state are a big,
happy family, as loving as
little birds in their nests and
with only one thought upper
most; the perpetuatio1 OF
pristine democracy in power
at Washington and Helena.

SIX REASONS FOR AVERY
TRACTOR SUCCESS:

~FOURTH-Avery crankshafts
are one-half or more than the
diameter of the cylinder. There
has never been a broken Avery
crankshaft.
FIFTH-Avery motors have
removable inner cylinder walls.
This makes it possible to replace
the part which is most subject
to wear in a motor without the
expense of having to buy an
entire new cylinder.
SIXTH-Avery Tractors are
entirely free from all pumps and
fans. AL such easily broken and
troublesome parts are done away
with in the construction of an
Avery Tractor.

that one was Peter Rabbit. l an
afraid il wasn't quite the right KIM
OF sorrow. You see, he wasn't SORT!
because OF what had happened 10
Jimmy skunk and Reddy Fox. but
because OF what had happened TO
himself. There he was, down IN
the bedroom OF Johnny Chuck's old
house. smarting and aching all over
from the sharp little lances OF the
ellow.jackets. who had driven him
down there before he had had
chance 10 see what happened 70
Reddy Fox. That was bad enough
hut what troubled Peter more was
the thought that he couldn't get ou'
without once again facing those
hot-tenpered w-jackets. You
see. their home was right mp In the
hall OF Johnny Chucks old house.
Peter wished with all his might
that he had known about II before
ever he thought of hiding there.
But wishes OF that kind are about
the most useless things In the world
They wouldn't help him now. he
had so many aches and smarts that
he didn't see how he could stand a
single one more. and vet he couldn't
see how he was going TO get out
without receiving several more. All
AT once he had comforting
thought. He remembered that
Johnny Chuck usually has a back
door. II that were the case here
he would be all right, He would
find out. Cautiously he poked his
head out OF the snug bedroom.
There was the long hall down which
he had come.

And then he bumped his nose.
Yes. sir, Peter bumped his nose
against the end OF that hall. You
see. il was an old house, and. like
most old houses. II was rather a
tumble-down affair Anyway, the
back door had been blocked with a
great stone and the walls OF the
back hall had fallen In. There was
no way out there. Sadly Peter
backed out to the little bedroom. He
would wait until night and perhaps
then the Yellow-iackets would be
asleep and he could steal out the
front way without getting any more
stings. Meanwhile he would try TO
get a nap and forget his aches and
pains.
