Inasmuch as It seems lo be tho In

Plowing with a steam or gasoline
tractor Is not nn unalloyed picnic,
particularly If those In chnrge of the
work do not understand the business
thoroughly nnd do not have things
properly ndjusted. One farmer we
read of the other day speut two days
with three men nnd a boy getting ono
of these plowing outfits equipped and
after making four rounds gave It up
as a bad Job and finished the field In
tho old fashioned way four horses
and n gang plow.
Since the tiller of the soil does most
of tho grunting and sweating In con
nection with produce consumed by the
millions of mouths of the country It
Is an Illuminating commentary ou the

gets but 35 cents of tho dollar which
tho consumer. pays for his produce. It

There are thousands of farms the
country over whose owners do not
think they can nfford a manure spread
er where more than tho cost of a good

nures. A ton of fresh manure 13 worth
$2.25 lu crop production, but loses 50
per cent of this value if allowed to

how quickly tho value of a spreader
