fit"
eihibitirn of tho machine.
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.

Use of Peltry In History.
;ln using peltry we walk backward
In history. 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.

House Sparrow In England.
In tho course of n campaign In Ene
" land ngalnst the swarming nnd nils
chlevnus house sparrow "the services
of children nnd "sparrow clubs" wero
solicited. Bad results were the eonse
quence, since little discrimination was
used, und every, port of small bird
was mistaken for the proscribed spar
row, and thousands of useful insect
eating birds were destroyed, so that
exactly the opposite of what was lu
'tended was accomplished.
