Six Reasons for Avery
kerosene Tractor Success

The design and construction of IT tractor is mighty important.
Study these special features in the design and construction of
Avery Kerosene Tractors and you will understand WHY thev ire
making good on any size farm-large, medium or small.
Fnst-Avery Tractors have a special sliding frame which
makes possible the elimination of the intermediate gear, shaft and
boN1ngs. An Avery Tractor has the least gears, the least shat
t1nsand the least bearings of any two-speed, double drive trac-
tors built which means more power and longer life.
oecond-Avery Tractors have two rear drive wheels and
TWO speeds-a big advantage over single-drive and one-speed
tractors.
~lhird-Avery Tractors have slow speed, heavy duty oppos-
cd motors not high-speed, light automobile motors.
Fourth-Averyc rankshafts are one-half the diameter of the
cylinder or more. You don't need to be afraid of having a
broken crankshaft.
rlfth-Avery motors have renewable inner cylinder walls.
These wearing parts can be replaced without buying an entirely
new cylinder.
olxth-Avery Tractors are entirely free from all pumps and
fans. All such easily broken and troublesome parts are done
away with i'll the construction of an Avery Tractor.
All features are fully described and illustrated in the 1918
Avery Catalog. The valuable information which it contains
will make it well worth your time to read over. Ask us for one

Probably hundred Mexicans have been secured for Alaska by way of San Francisco. They are offered in ducements by agents of the Alaska Packing company.
