Knute Knutson from Livingston

with the loader. 1t does the cleanest
work and runs easier than any other
loader Oh the market. Two horses
handles it as easy as four on the old
fashioned loader, and makes a clear
job of it, for it will rake the hay up
clean where the other leaders will
miss it. Knute says that he would
not have any other kind of loader
on his farm Mr.. Finnegan sold two
car loads of this brand Of hayloadel
