The John Deere No. 26 Disc Plow
To Meet Your
Orchard Plowing
Requirements
A plow must have an adjustable hitch which
satisfactorily permits off-setting the plow to
right or left, and the plow must be low and
narrow to permit safe work under the limbs
close to the row. Other qualities being equal,
the plow that runs steady when widely off-set
and that, requires the leaslj room to do the
work i's the most satisfactory to use. The No.
26 is the plow that successfully meets your re-
' quircments.
The No. 2G can be used with any tractor. It is
. just the right size and weight for tractors of
six, eight and ten hourscpower. ' Though espe
cially, designed for orchard plowing, it also
gives excellent results in vineyards and in
general field plowing.

EVENT ON FRIDAY
AT LI
One of the notable musical events
of the winter and spring will be the
pipe organ and vocal concert to be
given at the Presbyterian church on
Friday night of this week at 8 p. m.
by Mr. and Mrs. James H. Shearer.
These choice Bptrits with their bril
liant abilities and genial Scotch ami
Canadian brogue and humor, have
captured the audiences . and have
pleased mora than before at their re
turn engagements all through south
ern California. They have played and
ung In many of the largest churches in
Canadla and Buffalo, N. v., and thru
the large churches of lower California.
After ten minutes trial in the Mormon
tabernacle, they were asked to give
their concert there and did so to a
largo liudlence. Few musicians are
permitted that privilege'.
Many fine expressions of apprecia
tion from a large number of the people
who heard them last fall in the Pres
byterian church bespeaks a full houso
tomorrow night. It is nn Inspiration
worth while for every boy or girl,
man or woman studying music or who
is interested in music. Mr. Shearer's
explanations of the different numbers
enables' one to follow the meaning of
the master spirit who wrote them.

the end of 1922, it amounted to 52,580 H. P.
The Company's high tension lines at the end of 1922 were
over six hundred miles in length.
