The farm tractor and the »tatjonary farm engine have brought mechanical power to the farm; the coming of abundant power mean enormous thing» in the way of better and cheaper farming; it enable» larger tract» of land to be cultivated effectively, and at a much lower eoat of operation. The C reeping G rip T ractor will "handle every operation on the gTain farm from soil to market. The Creeping Grip Tractor Compels attention; it has no equal any where. The C rctping T ractor is made here in the west at Chico, Cali., and is rightly named “The California Giant.” This machine is absolutely the l>e8t on the market. It is the only machine adapted to the'all-around service that the Sher man County farmer needs. It is used for breaking sod and plowing, discing, harrowing, and drilling, without packing the ground; harvesting, threshing and general stationary power work, road grading, ditching, and freighting. I t stands the daily grind and wears well. It uses kerosene or distillate more economically than any of the so-called “oil fuel” tractors. . Why don’t you come in and let me talk this matter over with you.*1 I am agent for Sherman county for this machine and I am backing-» it with my own guarantee and I am anxious to see this machine on every farm in Sherman county Geo.
