EX-PREslDENT OF URUGUAY
 KILLS ADVERSARY IN DUEL

Montevideo, Uruguay, April (By the A. P) ).-Washington Beltran, ed- itor of the newspaper Fl Pals. was shot and killed in duel today by Jose Battle y Ordones, former president of Uruguay.

 The weapons used were pistols Bel tran was shot in the breast and died shortly afterward.
 The morning newspapers today printed announcements of the impend- ing duel.

 Battle twice has been president of Uruguay. His last term was from 1906 to 1910.
 Yesterday was not the first time that Jose Battle y Ordones met an adversary on the field under the code of honor. On Jan. 13 last Battle was twice wounded in the arm during 2 duel with swords fought with senator beonel Aguirre. He was rendered in capable of continuing the fight a few seconds after it started. and the due was suspended.
 It was said. at the time. that Battle had sent his seconds to Aguirre be- cause of an article printed in Ell Pals [ of which Aguirre was co-proprietor charging that the former president was seeking to acquire predominanct in the chamber of deputies to further ! his personal ends

TWIN-CTTY TRACTOR WELL
 ADAPTED TO ARIZONA USE

hen A. G. Dulmage and Donald .Anoar became partners in the new 4etropolitan garage which is now un- ger construction at Central avenue and -Ha1ison street, they wished to select a tractor suitable to all needs of the L~ncher or the Salt River valley, as a necessary part of their automotive line. With only one purpose in view, that oi finding a tractor that would be best aospted % Arizona soil and climate, anu would at the same time answer the purposes of the Salt River valley farm tr as Co power, economy, and all round. usefulness. the two well known local men finally decided upon the Twin City 4L-2o kerosene tractor.
 These tractors may now be invesi- gated and inspected at the temporary location of the Dulmage and Dunbar company. at the Dunbar Spring Service company's headquarters. at the inter section of Fourth avenue and Adams street.
 The Twin City 1920 was built to fill a real need, under conditions such as the farmer has Co contend with in the salt River valley. Its manufacturer, the Minneapolis Steel and Machinery company, is a S15.0O0.OO0 corporation which has been building tractors for 15 years. Thus. the Twin City tractors arc no longer in their experimental stage. but for many years have been proved to be a successful and necessary product, for power agriculture.
 Kerosene. the fuel for which the en- sine of the Twin City was specially constructed. may be used in this tractoi with tho most excellent results, an6 with tremendous saving in fuel costs The 16 valve, four cylinder, AZ by 6 valve-in-head motor means a vast TO. serve power, and about 25 per cen greater efficiency. Provided with re movable cylinder walls, the Twin Citl motor does away with tho necessity O. re-boring tho cylinders.
