THE TRACTOR SAVES LABOR

A large increase in the manufacture
and sale Of tractors is expected this
year. There are today only 10000
farm tractors in use. In land of
100000 farms, this is certainly not
many. But the movement has Just
started.
Manufacturers have estimated that
the 1919 aggregate production of
farm tractors will reach 314,963, this
figure being based on reports made
to the United States department of
agriculture. The tractors manufact-
ured in 1913 numbered only 132,697.
The reports indicate that this figure
will be more than doubled this year.
The significant thing about these
figures Is that the application OF the
gasoline motor to farming Is plainly
on the eve Of great expansion and
development. All sorts of changes are
predicted as a result. The horseless

GOVERNMENT On ADVERTISING

The volume If advertising in the
last few months, through tho United
States as q whole, has been unprece-
denied Statistics collected from
number of SOURCES show that greater
use of advertising Is being made than
ever before.
The information and education ser
vice OF the department OF labor COM
mends heartily the present use of ad-
vertising as a most patriotic public
service. During the war the depart
rnent and other governmental agen-
cies were compelled to ask people not
TO buy anything not actually essen
tial. because the war had to go on. but
now. when II Is OF the greatest i'm
portance that the wheels of industry
start running smoothly. advertising
and buying are the processes most
necessary 10 start them.
BY advertising extensively the seller
informs his market what goods can be
bought Ia advantage BY careful read
ing of the advertisements the pur-
chaser ~ enabled to choose discrimi-
natingly in order that his own needs
may be best met and In order that his
money may be utilized TO best pur-
poses.
| The information service is doing
what it can 70 cooperate with news
papers. advertisers, ard the consum-
! ing public. in order that the interests
OF all three may he served through
the stimulation of advertising It In the
view OF department officials that the
effect of the advertising already pub
lished has been marked in aiding the
restoration of business to normal, and
thath though the consistent use Of ad-
serusing much can DO done to achieve
