intendent Hawthotne early last fulf;
purchased a Cleveland tractgr from
the American. Automobile Company.
Two heavy teams were sold after the
tractor got on the job. The trattor
can replace three teams.
The $40110 saving rosulted in part
from the difference between the cost
of feeding the two teams and provid
ing them with harness, and the pric;
of buying gasoline and oil for the
tractor and keeping it in repair. How
ever, the greater part of the $4,000
saving resulted from the fact that

Highways.
This decision follows one of the big
engineering lessons of war experience,
thntit is possible to build light-weight
that It is possible a higher quality of
performance and reliability, lighter
weight coming from the elimination
of the many unnecessary parts used in
tne water-cooling system.
The decision of the Nebraska legis
lators gives the scientific light
weight car the recognition due be
cause of its greater utility al admits
that the lighter vehicle is ontitled to
lower tax rate because the wear on
highways is so much less and con
sumption of natural resources, like
gasoline and tires is also a minimum.
