marvel of the tractor industry. The
manager says:
Last year the Bull Tractor COM
pany made fifty-seven sales on the
grounds at Fremont, shipping 20
Fremont a trainload of fifty-five
Bulls. This year, on account of the
demand being so heavy it is impos-
sible to get together at one time so
many tractors for shipment.
THE prediction that we made in
January is being verified. Every light
tractor factory in existence or that
Was in existence, will sell their entire
output and the farmer is going to ask
what tractor he can get instead of
deciding on what tractor he wants.
We feel that this is going to prevent
many farmers from getting the Bull
tractor who have already decided
that it is what they want. We are
planning on staging a twenty-four or
mont at the power farming demon
torty-eight-hour nonstop run and
have secured forty acres of ground
near the demonstration grounds at
Fremont for this purpose"

feature is especially appreciated when
operating in trashy ground, weedy

1t will not be necessary to get off

John Deere Company's Line

1t is now readily conceded that the
small tractor blowing outfit is econo-
mical even for the average farmer.
A one-man outfit-one that is en-
tirely controlled by the man on the
tractor-;s the one that proves most
popular.
One of the great considerations in
Unsuccessful operation of the one
man tractor outfit or in fact any sort
of tractor is the efficiency of the
plows. The ease and effectiveness Of
operation are the cardinal features,
taken together with action of the
pillow when in the ground.
The John Deere Pillow company
has given many years study and
effort to the development OF their
tractor plows and the John Deere
Pony Tractor Plow No. 3, otherwise
known as the High and Level Lift,
is in high favor with tractor manu-
facturers and users.

TWo-PloW Tractor Efficient

The fundamental facts which every
farmer of today should know are the
costs of operating the farm and the
receipts and profits from each source
on the farm by lessening the cost of
labor of humans and horses. If these
things are known it is certain that
the farmer will increase his profits by
the addition of facilities that reduce
labor costs.
While it is we'll known that the
horse cannot be entirely eliminated
from the farm the small farm tractor
can and does lessen his labor which
he does but slowly and which wears
him out.

are getting considerable attention to-

Recently in some tests made at
Springfield, Neb., by the T. G. North
wall company of Omaha, the Happy

to convince the farmers and dealers
that it is practical for that district
of hills and grades.
The Happy Farmer tractor is a
"two-plow" machine. Its front and
rear wheel on the right side are on
a line permitting them to run in the
furrow. Lightweight per cent OF the

it pulls thirds of its weight on
