Klmer Lee was talking of plowing
No matter what the service may require, the STOVER is equal to the occasion!? The farm
service is perhaps the most exacting service for which a gasoline engine cdyrfbe used.
Here the engine is subject to intermittent duty, one day the engine will he tinted to its
full capacity and the next day the work will require but part of its power. The farm
owners, as a rule, know very little about gasoline engines and they are not in position
to have an expert on the ground every time the engine become balky, consequently they
need and demand an engine which gives no trouble and which when given ordinary at
tention runs smoothly and steadily. Such an engine is the STOVER. We have placed
over 2,000 of these engines in the Northwest, the greater number being used on farms,
and the fact that we have had no complaints to speak of indicates that the Stover fully
meets the demand for a reliable gasoline engine for farm use. We have them in the fol
lowing sizes: Vertical, 3 to 9 H. P. Horizontal, 5 to 50 H. P. Don't fail to ask for
