within her borders. A diplomatic

OF TRACTOR
ON USE OF HORSES

The number of horses displaced
by tractors In the corn belt Is largely
determined by the number 1t is
necessary to keep for corn cultiva-
ton, and other work current at the
same time which the tractor can do.
This is, perhaps, the most important
of the facts brought out by an in
vestigation recently made by the
United States department of agri-
culture in seven corn-belt states.
relative to the influence Of tractors
on, the use of horses, the results of
which have been published in Farm
ers' Bulletin 1898.
The department has drawn on the
experience of 1871 tractor owners, in
the preparation of this bulletin,
which is designed to enabl ethe corn
belt farmer to answer for himself
the following questions:
For what operations can l use the
tractor? FL
In what operations will 1t displace
horses in whole or in part?
How many horses will it displace
on my farm?
It was found that the number Of
horses disposed of by the farmers in
question after buying tractors was
between two and three farm. The
average number of acres tillable by
horses was increased twelve and the
average size of the farms by total
of twenty-five acres. Several op-
orators displaced horses entirely on
blowing, disking and narrowing. Few
operators allowed their horses to
stand idle while the tractor was in
use. g.I5
The horses remaining on these
farms are doing rs per cent of the
tractive work, and the tractor the
remainder. a
The tractors were used for an
average of 20 1O-hour days a year
on the home farms, no records be-
ing taken of custom work. A three
plow tractor on these farms does the
work of eight. and half horses in
blowing, disking, narrowing and har-
vesting.

In world politics, there will be but
