In these arid times, however, the spilling of ten thousand gallons of wine is an unusual occurrence; one that is calculated to cause more or less jubilation and some dizziness. The cause of the wreck is not stated, but possibly carrying that much wine made the wheels unsteady, like the pedal extremities of 'man, when he tries to carry a lot of it, and becoming wobbly, simply stepped off the rails, and fell by the wayside.

The wreck at Van Wych of a tank car containing upwards of ten thousand gallons of win last week, furnished, we are told, the means for more than one glorious drunk. We haven't yet the details, but we venture the assertion that the staunch old moralist, J.

M. Yoder, wishes that wine has been wrecked nearer the Catawba river and had flown into the stream to make the fish dizzy, rather than the men of his section and county. They do say the chain has been strengthened as a result of the wreck and also some heads patched up with court plaser and bandages.

BOOKS OPEN. s30-2w There are many Tractors clamoring for the patronage of the fanner. The' very air is charged with the noise of claims. One would think that all the farmer had to do was to lniy a Tractor and he would enter into the Millennium. Well, consider this fact there are a great many different makes of Tractors.

Tractors have been on the American market for twenty years. In that time some three hundred thousand Tractors have sold lo the farmers in the United States. The Fordson Tractor has only been on the market two years, and in that time more than one hundred thousand Fordson Tractors have been sold to the farmers of the United States. Two and two make four. Two and two always will make If the Fordson Tractor had not delivered more good work, more satisfactory work, more economical work, than any other farm Tractor, it would not have sold in the ratio of anywhere from five and more to one.

The proof of the pudding is in the eating." The proof of the superior merits of the Fordson Tractor is in its larger sale and use. The Fordson Tractor then asks you to buy it because of what it has done for your neighbors. It asks you to buy it its merits. It asks you to buy it, Mr. Farmer, because you have use for it every day in the year.

All the uses for the Fordson Tractor have not yet been uncovered because new places where machine power can take the place of human power, where machine power can supplant horse and mule power, are being found every week, and wherever such discovery occurs, the Fordson Tractor will fill the bill more satisfactorily than any other form of power. The Fordson is simple in design, and it is very strongly made of the highest quality of iron and steel. It is the product of the greatest mechanical genius the world Iras ever known, and it is most economical in first cost and after expense. The Fordson Tractor on your farm will increase the value of every foot of ground that farm. It will put more dollars and cents into every hour you put into the farm.
