With reference TO the labor prob

The best results.
$4,000 Tractors Available.
Accurate statistics collected by
the bureau of farm management OF
the department of agriculture show
that there are now available in the
different states Of the Union APP
proximately 30, 900 tractors.
The limiting factors today in the
production OF tractors are snort
ages Of materials machine tools and
labor. The government has been
asked by the tractor standards
division Of the Society Of Auto
motive Engineers. Of which II. i.
Honing Is chairman. 10 devise
means whereby the tractor manu-
.facturers can be furnished with the
materials. machine tools and labor
required in suitable quantities. 1t
is demonstrated that skilled labor
can serve the country in no better
way than by participating in the
production of tractors
Many agricultural colleges and
commercial schools are training
tractor operators. They have Quilt
the foundations which will enable
them 10 enlarge their operations TO
any degree required under a proper
plan.
Pres't George w. Durham OF the
Society of Automotive Engineers
and his co-laborers have presented
arguments that it is entirely feas-
ible through the proper use OF
tractors 10 furnish almost any
amount Of small grains required Tor
the worlds food supply The neces-
sary land is available in almost un-
limited quantity and capable Oper-
atOrs for tractors can be supplied
through the conduct of properly
coordinated systems of application.
Through the furnishing of proper
vision the operation of the $4,000
tractors now in use can be increased
greatly. The increase in the pro-
duction of small grains by increas-
ing the efficiency Of these tractors
already available will be no incon-
siderable item. The greatest in
crease in the small grains crop is,
however. Obtainable through the
employment of tractors yet to be
manufactured. The present manu-
featuring equipment of the country
is capable of producing at least
$4,000 tractors year under gov

TRUCK TIRE PLAYS
IMPORTANT ROLE IN
EUROPEAN CONFLICT

Truck tires have played a far
more important role in the great
European conflict than is generally
accredited 10 them" says c. j.
WEIGH. manager of the truck tire
department of the United States
Tire Co.
The real test of a truck tire
comes in war" says Mr.. Welch.
The success with which armored
motor trucks have been used in this
war is already a part Of history.
Already this success is usually at
tributed to the efficiency OF the au-
tomobile engine but the strength of
the tire is of very great significance.
AS long as a tire can run on
smooth road, durability is only a
question of time. but when a tire
must force its way over bitches,
entertainments. then comes its real
test
Not only must a tire be subject
10 these hazards of the road, but il
must continually bear the enormous
weight of the metallic car and its
ornaments everywhere At the
close of the war undoubtedly many
books will be written on the armor-
ed motor car, but 1 am sure that its
success has been largely made pos
sible through the unusual durabil-
ity and strength Of the modern tire.
"A large proportion of the tires
now used in Europe has come from
this country, and the renewal of
orders only illustrates the great
faith the warning nations have
placed in their contracts with the
American tire manufacturers.
European representatives of the
United States Rubber Export Co,
Ltd, which company handles the
export business of the United states
Tire Co. frequently report instances
in which United States tires fur
nished by the company have played
an important part in the success of
some remarkable automobile feat.
Truck tires have been great assets
in many other services of the war
ring nations and wherever the real
tests nave been made, their share IN
success has been most pronounced"

II has become a truism that the

All conservation and distribution

OF several important crops has for
some time been decreasing with re-

and the war has Of course aggra

10 the farmers in planning their
operations the government will
probably set a minimum price on
some crops for a term of years, as
has been done in England
The present inability OF farmers

Of sufficient farm power and the
scarcity Of farm labor For farm
power the farmers are dependent
upon either horses and mules or
tractors. The animal power on the
farms will Of necessity decrease
