CASE TRACTOR
DEMONSTRATION
DURING SHOW
THE NEW CASE 40 CAR WILL AL,
so ATTRACT MUCH ATTEN-
TON NEXT WEEK DURING THE
AUTO SHOW.

The Case car may be seen at the
local salesroom of the j. I. Case
Threshing Machine Co. Owing to the
fact that the entire corps of employees
are busy preparing for the heavy
spring trade, the manager concluded
that the merits of the Case car could
be as effectively demonstrated at the
warehouse where the visitors might
be interested in an inspection of the
ever on exhibition in the city. AS a
matter of business policy, we believe
the results will amply justify this de-
cision.
Case Tractors, for years, have been
considered the standard. The models
displayed this year are far superior
to the models handled in previous
years, owing to the fact that this con-
Germ keeps a large staff of experts
constantly employed improving their
tractors in any particular that may be
considered faulty, or by experiments
frequently demonstrate the practical
bility of some new idea.
Their most popular all-purpose trac-
tor is the 1920. This tractor is no ex-
pertinent. It's certainty was known to
the Case people long before they plac-
ed it upon the market. For blowing,
discing, narrowing, seeding, cultivat-
ing, reaping, threshing, etc., the farm
er with comparatively few acres I'M
der cultivation will find this machine
a profit producer. 1t has motor that
is wonder in economical consumption
of fuel as we'll as in the accessibility
of every part. The valves are located
in the head, a feature which insures
higher efficiency from the fuel used.
The cylinder head is removable, max
ing it easy to clean the combustion
chamber. of carbon and to remove the
valves for grinding. The frame is
built from one piece of channel steel,
bent into form by means of dies. This
gives it a rigid framework of enor-
NOUS strength and eliminates the
great number of riveted joints found
in frames built up from separate
pieces. The framework is construct
ed of 5-inch channel, cross braced and
the corners fitted with gusset plates
to prevent DETECTION. The rear axle is
made of 3-inch 40 to so carbon steel,
and operates on three Hyatt roller
bearings. The 1920 tractor is an ideal
machine and it's introduction at this
time is most opportune as the major
ity of tractor users, taking one season
with another, prefer the light tractor
because they consider it gives better
service and is more dependable.
The Case 1925 h. p. tractor is built
to pull four plows under normal con-
ditions. In construction design it is
similar to the 1920, the only differ
ence being in it's larger size and high
err power. By many operating on
large scale it is preferred to the 1920
type.
The era of gas tractors for heavy
farm work is here. Not that the trac-
tor will ever supercede the horse, gen.
orally speaking, but the utility of the
tractor in comparison with horse pow
er is unquestioned. There is another
phase of this question that must be
taken into consideration, and that is
the increasing price Of good horse.
flesh and the advance in the price OF
rations. The European war, OF course,
is a great factor in these elements OF
expense. The American farmer who
takes the cost of his farm work into
consideration finds that he must have
less expensive power. This means
reliable tractor-with special empha-
sis on the reliability.
The Case 40" touring car is one
of the most superb automobiles on the
market today, and that statement re-
quires no qualification. It's car that
commands admiration. You are bound
to envy the owner of Case 40" A
ride in one is delight, the immense
cantilever springs suspended from the
rear axle by means of universal joints
give the occupants the greatest posi-
Bile degree Of comfort. When the
splendid, not to say luxurious, ap-
pointments of the Case car are taken
into consideration, coupled with me-
chanical features that only those IA
miliar with the superiority Of Case
products can realize and appreciate,
the price of this splendid car is
matter of establishment. The Case
$40" touring car, seven passenger, IS
sold fully equipped for only $1,000, +.
