HOW stupid manv of the high ON
Gals of the railroads are-thev seem
utterly unable to comprehend a sub

point. Daniel willard. president OF the

railroad freight rates. TUESDAY IuiA
Jus Kruttschnitt. OF the Southern Pa
cific Railroad, went Mr.. willard one bet
ter and asked that Congress bar the
use OF public highways to trucks carry
ing goods in competition with the rail-
roads. What could be more ridiculous
than such a proposition.
The fact is, the increased rates IN
sisted upon by the railroads have simply
smothered business, and instead OF IN
creasing have diminished their IN
comes. Every man of ordinary intel
lieence knows that nobody has any
freight hauled by the railroads il 1t car

idents are very like ostriches' as tar
as seeing the point is concerned.

International Sic Kerosene Tractor

This strong, lightweight tractor is especially
adapted for the average farm. In the field on the
road at the belt it busies itself getting work
of the way in record time.
To be sure your farm work is kept up-to-the-
minute and to guard against costly delays place
your order now for an International. Think Of
the of jobs it do for you at a satisfying
saving in time and labor how well they will be
done and at what little expense. Your tractor can
be delivered when you want it if you place your
order soon.

A Practical Farm
Machine

THAT Observation-Disclosures tractors
are practical farm machines has been
demonstrated beyond doubt by the records of
International tractors on thousands Of American
farms for the last fourteen years. Not only are
they dependable, but as compared with gasoline
driven tractors of the same rated horse power they
show clear saving of from 50 to 80 per cent on
cost of fuel used.
