If you want the best in PLOWS buy We feel sure we have just what you want in wire fencing n 11 The fanner who buys either the New Deere Ga.n or Sulky now gets absolutely the finest, most servkable implement of its kind ever produced. Before buying such a tool you'll want to know how it's built, how it works and what it will do for you. As to quality of the material and workmanship the name Deere on it is a sufficient guarantee for you on those points. For ease of operation and light draft the New Deere will be a happy surprise to you. The many new features which enable the operator to do work with it he never could do before, with a sulky or gang plow, are marvels of simplicity and effective ness. It takes a whole book and a lot of illustrations to explain them all, and we know you will want, to read the book.

She is a show j cow, too. The Messrs. Stump realize that there was a prejudice against Noble Peer as a produc ing sire. But practically all his heifers have been good producers. several in other herds, that have not been tested, being heavy milkers. The number of sires with two-year-old heifers making official records of over 500 pounds is very small, so Noble Peer must be a good sire. The heifer had no advantage over the balance of the cows.
