COST OF FLOWING
 BY FARM TRACTOR


 of the University of Arkansas Ex- tension Department, sends out the following information relative to the cost of blowing with "a tractor. Farmers who contemplate this me- thod of cultivating their land can get some information from the experi- ments made:
 Many requests for information con- cerning the tractor are coming to the institution. The data gathered from blowing test recently conduct ed by the college may answer several questions in theminds of interested persons. st:
 The object of the test was to de- termine the actual cost of blowing land with the tractor, and incident ally to test the efficiency and stay ing powers of the engine, in order to know what extent night and day shifts are possible in hastening the work in the stress of planting sea- son.
 The land chosen was a tract of about fifty acres on tho farm of Allen Davis, about l 3-4 miles north of the University. The tract is gently rolling. The soil varies from q slightly sandy loam to clayed loam There were few loose stones on the land. In places there was. dense growth of weeds about three feet high. At the beginning of, the test the soil was suitably supplied ; with moisture. The plan was to continue after beginning. without stpoping the engine, until the field of fifty acres was plowed.
 The tractor drew three fourteen inch blows that ran at an average of six inches deep. At the end of fourteen hours work rain forced stop of one-half hour-the engine kept running Occasional stops of four or five minutes were made to put in gasoline and oil but the engine did not stop.
 At the end of 32 1-2 hours of ac- tual work, rain had softed the land to such an extent that the work had to stop. The tractor was then run to Fayetteville and the engine kept running until 4S hours fro mthe time of beginning were up. At the end of AS hours continuous running the engine was still cool.
 The following were the tangible items of cost:
 Nine quarts oil, at 25c. ......$ 2.25
 65 gallon gasoline, at 25c.. 1887
 32 1-2 hours labor,
 driver, at soc ..... .....-.. 1925
 Total ......--...-- .S34.97
 The amount of land plowed was a l little over 34 acres, which makes the cost following about $10O per acre. There were no repairs and no ef- fort was made to compute depreci- ation.
 The test is fair measure of what can be done with tractor in the line of blowing. The land was thoroughly plowed and the weeds were we'll covered. The information may be of value to farmers who are considering the purchase of qtrac- tor. There are many makes of good ! tractors and for this reason the name l of the tractor will be given only upon request.
 The figures given above offer a substantial basis for computing the | savings of cost of land tillage by the use of the tractor and of deter ! mining whether the size of ones farm will make tractor a paying investment.
