D.GORDON Exclusive Undertaking Phones 121 and 814 Chilllcothe, Missouri Published Every Thursday VOL. 1 Chillicothe, May 20, 1927. No. 2 WORK UP TO OFF-SET LATE SEASON The statement that "Power farming is more pleasant- and profitable" was made by a tractor user formerly farmed entirely animal power. His opinion is substantiated by experience and facts.

Since he started power farming he has had less hard physical work to do. It takes only a small part of the time to care for his tractor that it took him to take care of the horses. At noon he stops the tractor. There are no horses to unhitch, water and feed. Instead of having to work during the noontime, he, too, can rest longer.

The same is true at night, and it- takes less time to put in the fuel water, and oil up than to feed, curry, harness, water, anc nitcu up a number of horses or mules. After he is in the field there is a bigger difference, because a tractor is much easier to drive and to handle. It goes just where he wants it to. and at the speed lie desires. He doesn't have to constantly urge it on.

Its speed is the same at quitting time as the first hour of tlie aay. This all helps to make power farming more pleasant. Not many farmers care to drive more than four horses because of the and trouble involved in getting to and from the field. But put the same man on a tractor and he can easily control 10 to 15 horse power on the drawbar. With this extra power he can accomplish three times as much.

While a man is plowing 3 or 4 acres in a day with horses he will plow 8 to 12 acres with a tractor and do it all atvthe proper depth. Not only is this true of plowing, but of all other field operations. More and more we are all realizing the full importance of getting the work done on -tinie; and especially of taking advantage of favorable weather. This can be done only when there is plenty of dependable power available.
