On lew gear tho engine Is capa bit of pulling a wulght bolilnd it of 2500 pounds, at u speed of 2 Vi. miles per hour, ploughing tho soil ' at tho rate of about one acre pur hour. . v , pn medium goar that generally iise,d !n actual work the. tractor will carry a dead , weight of 1,800 pounds, at tho rnto of 3 miles per hour, plowing' at tho rate of about 1 'A acres per hour. On the road, for Instance, in going from one field to another, the tractor fairly made the dust fly at ten miles an hour. ' One main point of the "Fordson" Is that it only, weights, loaded, ready for work, 2,700 pounds and has quickness of action. Another distinction is- that' the rear wheels, 43 Inches In diameter, with 12 Inch broad' tires, are rib bed about six Inches apart with "gouters" 3 "4 Inches high from tho surface, of the wheel, which in addition to plowing a furrow from 0 to 10 Inches, pulverizes the sub soil In the furrow that much deep er, , performing two operations at the i Bamo time, which all farmers appreciate. The, tractor has a. two gang plow 14In. wide, especially for it, It Will also drag a 7-fool disc oyer the plowed ground aftor tho field has been plowed, while going once ironud a field at tho ruto of 3 miles per hour and a quarter acres en hour. Compare; the work of thlB trac tor, plowing about 11 or 12 acres a day with a 7-h6rse team, and any farmer can readily ee the difference in time In a busy sprin season. Mr. Vick said yestorday that he is now receiving weekly supplies of ''Fordsons" of four car-loads, each car containing seven tractors. lr t " $ i 'r r l " Physical Exortlon and Heart T.-oublo. ' The only way of surely determining whether n sufferer from an Irritable hoiirt can bear extensive exertion Is to put him through a series of grad ually Increasing exercises, states the British Judical Journal, with careful exuuilnti'Jon after each exercise.

In what wo moderns call the early history of Europe much that was lovely was done with pel I ry. And further buck, when artificial heat was not known, when men and women lived In damp huts or pnluces, when life was crude and raw und self-sacrificing In a wny that we may .never know, peltry was the true means of covering the body und making one's self not only beautiful, but comfort able. , Best to Face Facts In Life. There are very few of us who find life all that we pictured It In our youth. Often It proves very hard for us, be cause we Insist upon Idealising It In stead of taking It as It Is. AVe must not refuse to face facts. It would be very satisfying and beautiful, perhaps, If life could be what Wo want It. I'.ut -the truth Is that we cannot tulte It and make It over to our own ends. How ever, wo can' take ourselves In band and lit ourselves to life, If we will. Exchange. .
