STATE SAVING
FARMERS MONEY
Tractors Are of Real Service
to the Raisers of Corn
and Vegetables

Men connected with the State De-
that the commonwealth will save
the farmers of Pennsylvania many
thousands of dollars. and at the same
time do their plowing for them with
out much trouble or labor. by means
of the tractors, which have gone in
to service in some sections.
A statement issued by the depart
ment says:
THE tractors will be sent into
nearly. every county in the state and
will go especially to those localities
where they are needed to insure
large corn and oats acreages. The
charge for tractor service has been
placed at three dollars per acre for
plowing and one dollar and q half
Per acre for discing and sixty cents
an acre for narrowing. The costs
cover all expenses incidental to the
work, but the farmer in addition to
paying the acreage fee, must board
and lodge the operators while they
aye engaged at work on their farm.
MANY applications for tractor
service have been received by Sec
retary of Agriculture, Charles E.
Patton and he has been receiving
hearty cooperation from the Coun-
ty Farm Bureau Agents, who are
assisting in mapping out the timer
aries of the tractors in their respec-
tive counties. In order to get a
tractor in any specific district it is
necessary to have enough farmers
combine to contract for at least 120
acres of work. Little trouble has
been experienced in this detail, as
there seems to be an overwhelming
demand for assistance in plowing
this year.
1T is estimated that the tractors
will average twelve acres of plowing
n day or $50 acres for the forty trac-
tors. 1t is also figured that there
will be sixty full working days in
which work can be done in prepar-
ing the soil for the seasons crops
and that in that time 2S,SOO acres
will be prepared. Most of the work
will be done in counties where there
are big corn yields and it is estimat-
ed that the fields prepared by the
tractors will yield at least a million
and half bushels of corn with a
value at present prices of $780,
10000.
'"To accomplish the same amount
of work that the forty tractors and
eighty operators will do it is esti-
mated that it would take three hun
dred and twenty farmers using nine
hundred and sixty horses steadily
for sixty days.
when the spring plowing is done
the tractors will be turned to help
ing with the harvest and in prepar-
ing the fields for the crops of winter
wheat and rye. 1t is expected that
the tractors will be kept busy dur
ing the entire summer and late into
the fall. Farmers desiring service
should get in touch with Secretary
Patton or their county farm bureau
agent at once"

NEW SW EATERS

Of course we are buying little
enough wool for new sweaters in these
days. We all feel that wooden yarn
ought to be either gray or khaki
colored, so that it may be knit into
army and navy garments and we all
feel that our knitting needles ought
to click. exclusively to patriotic ends
But nevertheless some of us have on
hand wool for a, sweater or two.
Others of US have old sweaters that
cen be ripped and formed into skeil
washed and dried, and then wound and
knit up again into money-saving gar
ments to defy the winter weather
Hence we are interested in newest
things in sweaters.
Some of the new sweaters are made
with satin sailor collars and cuffs
and satin sashes to match. On one
such sweater the satin pieces were
embelished with circular designs at
tho four corners of the collar at the
ends CT the sash, and at the front of
the cuffs done in embroidered wool
Particularly popular with the young
girl who wishes to make a patriotic
sweater is the military coat that is
knitted in a smart ribbed design. with
double-breasted opening that closes
with a double line of military buttons
The Jacket is fairly long and the
waist is held in place by ratehr
snug wide leather belt finished by
large metal buckle.
