BIG BULL DOES JOB
I'm RECORD TIME

Another record set up for the Big
Bull tractor, went into history yester-
day morning, when at 10 o'clock ex-
actly 50 acres had been plowed, the
work having been finished in forty
eight hours by two machines.
The piece of land, being rented this
year by j. w. Burch, lies on the east
and west road just east Of Fort Lin
coin. Two Big Bull tractors were start
ed plowing with Case gang plows, at
10 o'clock on Tuesday morning. These
machines ran constantly day and night,
stopping only occasionally for oil and
fuel. And at five minutes to 10 o'clock
yesterday morning the machines had
finished their work in the field, having
SO acres to their credit.
In the first thirteen hours Of work,
one of the machines had made 1S laps,
averaging some over two miles to the
lap, and the other Bull had made 10
laps averaging the same.
This demonstration to show what the
Big Bull could do on the farm, was
staged by the Bull Tractor company,
represented in this city by the Schibsby
Bull Tractor company. Referring to the
record made by the machines, Mr..
Schibsby made the statement to The
Tribune yesterday morning: II am not
surprised in the least at the outcome
of this demonstration. l was confident
that the machines could do the work.
They are the only thing for the mod
ern farmer, and the day is not far dis
tant when every farmer in North Da-
kota, will not think Of running his
farm without a Big Bull to do the
heavy work. The feature Of the ma

as in the field we have just finished,

made being for fuel and oil. Practical
demonstrations mean more to us than
anything else as selling arguments

II have condemned all kinds and makes Of tractors

"Your Bull Tractor agent at Bismarck, N. D., per-
suaded me to let him take Big Bull Tractor out to

and started in to plow in my field at 10 o'clock Tues

BoRpERLANp FIRE.

The fire which occurred at the Bor-
derland Coal Co.'s No. 2 plant yester-
day proved to be one of the most dis
astrous mining fires that this coal field
has ever witnessed The fire broke out
in the tipple shortly afternoon and had
gotten under considerable headway be-
fore being discovered. A large crowd
of men soon assembled and the fight
to extinguish the flames began, but it
proved to be a losing fight. The flames
gradually extended and from the tip
pie they soon spread to the electric
power house where the vast and costly
electrical machinery, together with the
building, was entirely destroyed.
When the flames once got into the
chute through which the conveyor runs
from the Kentucky to the West Vir-
ginia side, heavy draft drew the fire
furiously to the Kentucky side and for
a while threatened the powder mag
azine located near the incline on the
Kentucky side. The fire destroyed the
incline up as far as the first headhouse.
The commissary, located on the West
Virginia side, is some distance from
the tipple and escaped.
While the loss is close to $4,000, II
is almost entirely covered by insurance
which we understand was placed thru
a local agency. 1t is expected that the
Borderland people will begin the re-
building of this plant at ohce.-Will-
