The Fordson cuts the cost of preparing land almost to half of what it cost with horses. But even more important is the fact that the Fordson saves from thirty to fifty per cent of the farmer’s time. And time saved—getting fields in shape to plant in the proper season, getting things done when they should be done—means money to the farmer. Besides it helps greatly in solving the labor problem. As ever, the machine way is proving more efficient, faster, easier than the old hand way. In the factory the machine increases produc tion, saves labor—produces more at less cost. And that is what the Fordson does on the farm. The Fordson way is the machine way of farming. Besides it helps the labor problem. The Fordson’s first cost is low; and the after or operating cost is low It is a compact, easily handled tractor, backed by the great est tractor service organ ization in the world. We are Fordson deal ers. Not only do we sell Fordson tractors, but we * -«.V. 1 carry' a stock of fordson parts and employ Ford son mechanics to help the farmers get the best re sults from the Fordson. Let us demonstrate the = Fordson on your fa rm. kO£ J - f RAKER & SON CiRESHAM PLEASANT VALLEY R. D. May of Pom ona.

The Miracle Wrought With STUMPING POWDERS D u P o n t an d R ep au n o B ran ds (Pacific N o rth w est P rod u cts) FIELD of stumps and boulders, lying idle, unproductive —bringing money to the tax-collector and no one else. Next season a smooth, fertile field waving with wheat or com or filled with fine potatoes. Such is the miracle being wrought every year on hundreds of farms in this state through the use of Du Pont or Repauno Stumping Powders CEDAR AND VICTORY A The P aren t-T each er association of Victory will m eet a t th e schoolhouse Friday, March 18.

Main 6749.— Adv. “ Clear More Acres—Make More M oney” —that is the slogan of the progressive farmer of today. Last year was one of the biggest land-clearing yea- this state has ever known. This year will be a record-breaker. Simply because it is sound business to make unproductive land produce. You do the job only once and pay for it only once. The first crop usually more than pays the cost. Then every future year each crop will add to your profits. See our local dealer and order your season’s supply. Always specify Du Pont or Repauno Stumping Powders. They are always dependable, high quality, low-freezing and no dyna mites are cheaper. Saturday, March 2 6 1921 at 10 o’clock A.
