At this time I have two tractors 'rated at 12 h. p.. which have an excellent reputation nnd which have) boon sold in largo numbers through out tho United Stales., v, . I had n great deal, of difficulty In keep ing these tractors operating, and kept a very careful account ngainst them; upon balancing thene accounts. I was very much surpr'sed to learn that tho ropalr expense was double tho operating expense: In other' words, if the driver's wages and cost of oil ,. -.nnd gas uniountcd to 1.00per aero for . I. ; 'plowing, the repair -cxpenso at tho end of , the year wa.i at' least $2.00 per aero ad- "' . ditlonnl. . 'i 1 ;';-. y At first I onsldored his tho fault of my , J a llien, 'lint, by careful examination. I found j ' that, vh'ln. there wifs some fault there, by ' far the largcrv portion could be charged to ' faulty, design, .poor material and poor-' workinanshlp. . iW'ith'these facts in mind, I selected your " tractor, took it to my orchard nnd worked it by tho side of tho two tractors that I al ready had; used It' on exactly the same . too! wh'ch was being operated by my other ' tractors, and found this: Each of the ol her tractors used from 2 5 to 30' gallons of distillate per shift of ten hours nnd eon- , sinned tbount two gallons of lubricating oil. Tho KAOKOI., fllowmg In tho. next furrow, operated on a "little under ton gal lons of distillate and less than n pint of oil. The othor tractors 'lost on an .avcraRo over 25 per cent of opbratlon time, exclu- -sivo of days laid off entirely, and, In uddi- ' i tion. about an hour per shift was used for oiling and greasing. The PAGKOb oper- . ateil .continuously ten hours each shift, with' no time whatover lost oither for. 'repairs-or' Cling. - In'additir.n. I found that I could work practically the sa,mo tools on the hills that 1 could on the flat: that I reuld work tools on the- hills whero my'pthpt Inlctors could not opefato at all. ;1 aih-so well satisfied that 1 will use your tractors on iny place in future. 1st Prize, Rural World Tractor .

I am entirely satisfied with yiils machine.

Mil. E. W. CAIUTOX, Central Point, Ore., ' Ocd. i!l, 11)2(1: My FAGEOL- tractor Was put in u3e the," latter part of February and has run 825 hours. The operator Is ' a careful man, though not a' skilled driver or mechanic. He has followed directions with great care;., and takes great pride in his machine. The oil consumption Is between a pint and a quart per day of ten hours, which means . phout nine hours of actual running. In the-., same time the fuel consumption is nine ' gallons. Tho cylinder oil Is changed once a month when running on gasoline, and once a week on distillate. This fall the valves, were ground and tho plBtons clean ed. We found it unnecessary to renew any' rings. The only ronewal during the sea- -. son was one spark plug. Twice we have . called In a. .magneto expert to make, ad justments wo felt unequal to. The work! Jvas been mostly in the or chard of. 60 acres. About 20 1 acres of rover crop '1)8. to 26 inches high was turn-, ed under anil covered with an Oliver 3-10 ) orchard plow so that nonoi Bhowed. We were able to plow as close as six Inches to the very low trees ' when plowing awayi Trom them. The limiting factor Is the 2 6-Inch plow wheel passing under tho low limbs. The cultivation was done; largely with n Tloderic Lean 7-foot disc, spread' out to ten feet, and It has run all sumer with the sharts buried in the soli mulch; The traction is perfect and there is no., side slip, with a tremendous side hitch. This is, ,ln my mind, the cardinal point ,In a tractor, and tho FAGEOL far outclasses anything I have knowledge of. The cool running engine, the lack of dust, the com fort of. the driver, the. few oiling points and the case in handling are all -Import-. Knt points which stand out strongly in this' tractor. From what I know of other makes' In-; the way of oil and fuel 'consumption', re- pairs, time consumed in oiling, and dlB-"' comfort to tlie driver I consider, my, choice of a FACiEOI. a most fortunate one.
