Otherwise, except for a few nippy mornings we would not know that December is just around the corner. Strangely, too, we have not been reminded by weather prophets. No one has mentioned yellowjackets in the woods or dug into a gopher stock of roots and corn, nor has spoken of fur on the wild animals or feathers on the game birds. No old Indian seer, while smoking his pipe in his wickiup, has warned us to beware of deep snows. One man sprung the story about the hog melt, but it is hoary in its failures. We dropped in on the old white haired man at the end of the road a few days ago to ask him. Thought maybe he might know when winter comes. His coal bin was full. The cellar was well stocked. He had gathered up in the dry a great pile of sagebrush for kindling. His overcoat hung well repaired by the door and a neighbor, woman had kindly darned his wool socks. As he pressed tobacco into his corn cob he remarked that he had a good supply on hand. He said that his bills were all paid and that winter had no worries for him, come what may. Winter, he phil osophized, as he ran his slender fingers through his hair of many seasons, it what you make it. On the way home we passed a tent under a shade tree. Three children illy clad were playing about. The washing on the line was light and patchy and the mother was splitting some slab wood at the door flaps. Winter will be something that some one else has made or will make for this little family. How ever softly nature tempers the southwest wind, or however shrill and cold the snowy blasts from the northeast pierce the canvas, winter will be winter to them. Young in experience, unfortunate in circum stances. and perhaps profligate in ways, winter be comes winter to hundreds of people in our broad land, no matter what temperature the breezes blow. With a little advice from the white haired man at the end of the road, we can say that while the weath er is mild and wint r yet ahead, it is wise to enter the preparedness program. Get ready for what may come and have peace of mind and comfort if or when the crystalline particles begin to fall and fall. Or else follow the waterfowl to the swamps or valleys of a warmer clime. "Get the Feel of That Wheel There's No Other Tractor Made That Handles Easier Than a JOHN DEERE. " YOU’LL DO BETTER WORK AND FEEL FRESH AT THE END OF THE DAY VOU don't have to put up with the hard, dis- - agreeable job of handling a horse-drawn cul tivator—no, sir. not as long as we're selling easy-steering, accurately-controlled John Deere General Purpose Tractors, and the integral equipment that's made for them. A John Deere has to “toe the mark" even when operating in extremely rough conditions, because the irreversible worm and gear won’t let it get out of line—you couldn't get backlash and whip of the wheel if you tried. When you drive a John Deere down the rows, you'll know what we mean by effortless steer- 'ng, easy dodging. You’ll get this same easy steering in a John Deere for years to come because, should any wear occur after long usage, a simple ad justment enables you to take care of that.
