tractors now sold in the State of Geor-
gia.
A limited amount of field demon.
strations will be given, so as to enable
the students in this Course to be able
to set and adjust plows, and to use
the different bitches for different farm
work such as blowing, narrowing,
seeding and harvesting. The tractors,
plows and an operator will be on hand
so that a careful study can be made
of all of the outfits by the students by
handling these outfits in the field.
1t has been proven that the greatest
factor, making for the success OF
failure of the Tractor, is the operation.
Consequently, the College of Agricul-
ture is now offering this Course so to
insure the, successful operation of all
tractors.
