COLONY BUYS FORDSON
TRACTOR TO AID HARVEST

The policy Of the Llano Co-opera-
tive Colony has always been to use
machinery as much as possible, to
avoid the hard drudgery of its work
ers.
To this end. the Colony last week
bought from the Ford agency at Lees
vile, a new Fordson tractor, and it
has already proved itself a good CO.
operator. 1t is being used to cut the
ensilage for the big siIo, and its steady
purring can be heard all around Sum
day the silo-filling was continued be-
cause much cane pulp and ensilage
had accumulated on the ground and
was drying out. A volunteer crew
worked in the morning and another in
the afternoon, and much feed was
stored in the silo. This siIo holds
about l20 tons, and will soon be full.
1t becomes apparent that another
small silo will be necessary to accom-
modate the feed at the horse barn, and
building on this will be begun immedi-
ately.
The Fordson can be used very
largely by the colonists in the woods
when the harvesting is over. This lit
tie power demon can be used to haul
and skid logs from the woods, for
wood saving. and all kinds of heavy
hauling, thus making life easier for the
boys on the farm.
The colony has about two hundred
tons of ensilage in the three silos. and
more will go into silo number four,
which will be begun Immediately.
The syrup making continues with
great ferver, the cane mill running ev-
cry day. The syrup cookers report
an average of nearly 50 gallons of
thick syrup day, and there is lots Of
Texas Blue Ribbon sorghum which will
keep them going until next week.
1t will be six weeks before the Lou

The Colony Diary
Being Daily Report Of Colony Life At LANG.

Wednesday, September 22-The big
event of this day is that | have reach
ed another milestone in my age. Of
course, this is important only to my
self, and was remembered only when
some of my friends dropped few re-
membranes on my desk and received
a grouchy thanks, until | looked into
their packages and saw, then remem-
bered. The cutting Of cane in the
fields, hauling it to the mill where it
is topped and run thru the press to ex-
tract the juice which is boiled down
into syrup, is the chief order of the
day. The silo is to start again. We
bot Fordson tractor today, and its
first job will be to run the ensiIage
cutter at the silo. Arrangements were
made for the new tractor to be brot
down from Leesville tomorrow. Men
began haul the cane pulp to the dairy
farm to be made into ensilage.. Sew
eral shipments of groceries and feed
kept Dad Crawford busy hauling from
Leesville. DeBoer and Carron made
their shoe trip to Neame, Pickering,
and Ludington and return with a full
car of work for Comrade 'Stuersel at
the shoe shop.
= = - *
Thursday, September 23-Ole Syn
oground and | went to Mansfield to
look over some more brick machinery,
with intention of buying to enlarge our
plant and economize on human ef-
forts. 1t was hard trip, but worth
the effort; for we found what we want
ed, although not completing the deal.
The tractor arrived at the dairy ranch
today, but did not start to work; as
many small details had to be worked
out before work could begin. The
syrup mill ran steadily to-day and the
cutters in the field have gained on the
haulers, until quite a lot of cane is on
the ground waiting transportation.
Two comrades from Pennsylvania,
Thomas and Robertson, arrived and
are looking over the ranch, with the
intention to join us as members. They
talk like co-operators and are much in
terested in the Colony. They say it.
is much better than they expected to
see.
