It pulls the usual S-horse load will do as much work as 7 horses, owing to its greater speed and endurance. It can be used for plowing, harrowing, planting, cultivating, haying and harvest ingin fact, all field work, and will deliver 12 horse-power on the belt A Real One-Man Outfit The Moline-Univcrsal is easier to handle than a team of horses, weighs about the same, turns in a 16-foot circle and will back with the implement attached. It is com pact, simple, close-coupled, a wonderful Euller and carries no dead weight. And est of all, it is operated from the seat of the implement attached. This permits one man to operate both tractor and implement. Cut the Cost of Horse Labor The cost of horse labor is almost one half the gross operating expense on the average farm. A farm horse averages only Vi hours work a day through the entire year, and tires in six. It costs from 12 to 14 cents per working hour to maintain a horse, and requires 23 minutes a day to care for him. or fourteen ten-hour days year. And yet there isn't enough power to prow as deep as scientific methods require; to harrow more frequently, so that organic matter will be utilized, moisture con served, and a good state of soil tilth main tained; to cultivate more frequently; and to harvest at the proper time. Let us te) you how the "MoVme- Universa) Tractor can reduce the coat of power on your farm. It will pay you. REDMOND LUMBER & PRODUCE CO.
