DR.. Ladd adopted the federal

The Embden Farmers Grain conf
pany, through iAttorneyS Sycinbjofn
suit to test the constitutionality of
the act. 1t was this suit which was
argued before the federal court in
st. Paul. ~
It-was. shown that the farmers
elevators III the state. were dissatis-
fled with the act, claiming that it
.interfered with the act OF congress.
Congress had passed(a grain grading
act and all grades for grains had
been fixed by the properly consatut-
ed authorities. The test action was
law of the United States governed or
whether the law Of the state of North
Dakota governed.
The main objection to the state
law was that the federal government
was doing the same grading and in
speeding as the state under the state
law and the state couldn't make any
different regulations.
Nonpartisan leaguers have made
much of the dockage, which they
claim the farmers have been paying,
and they said that >the new law
would do away with this. Farmers
elevators, it was pointed out. howev-
er, Railways have been paying dockage.
If the restraining order is made
permanent, the state will be saved
thousands Of dollars. The salaries of
many deputy inspectors will be elm
mated, and there will be a huge saw
ing in other respects.

err over $50 acres, disced 400 acres,
listed $50 acres and drilled 600 acres
all at total cost for repairs of only
$500 and that was for the magnetic.
Some of the details of Mr.. Berry's
Wallis Tractor experience follows:
Using a 1917 foot drill he drilled 20
acres in four hours and ten minutes.
He listed 65 acres in and and one-half
days. Using a 3 PIG J. l. Case Disc
Harrow he disced IS acres in day
and a half. He plowed 20 acres in II
hours using j. l. Case three-bottom
tractor pillow. And he listed 1870 acres
in so hours using double disc j. I.
Case 14-inch lister.
Another story covers the experiences
of 4. w. Cudney, located not far form
Mr.. Berry According to the account
of Mr.. Cudney's experiences, as relat-
ed to us, he began using his Wallis
Tractor pulling a IL foot combined
harvester-thresher over $50 acres. Mr..
Cudney is reported as saying: "Our
best run was SO acres in day. We
could have made this average if the
thresher would have handled the
straw.
after harvest we pulled an 8-foot
j. |. Case Tandem Disc over about $50
acres at the rate of 1-3 acres an
hour, and used only fraction more
than R-gallon of gasoline per acre.
We listed, with gang lister, $50
acres, using ITO Of gallon of gas
oline per acre and averaged about
three acres per hour. Our best run
was 100 acres in As hours, only stop
ping for oil and gasoline. have plow-
ed better than 100 acres and drilled
with an 18-disc drill about $50 acres
and my Wallis Tractor is still 'rarin'
to co."
Several other experiences of an
equally startling nature with reference
to records made by the Wallis Tractor
were told by Mr.. Bacon. Surely, with
modern tractors performing in such
dependable way, the day Of the trac-
tor has arrived. And, according to
Mr.. Bacon, the farm does not need to
be larger than 100 acres to make the
tractor profitable investment.
