FOUR MEDFORD MAIL-TRIBUNE Wednesday, Oct- i. 19 Olive :M (35S!, Barber's j -2. Letter t.MJ . Qr J Twenty years ago the little house with the now sagginK doon and (alien porches had been a sturdy cottage, sheltering a pair of sturdy little boys and their parents. In other words the Barber family. Then we pur chased Hillside and as the years passed the little cottage being un occupied, It grieved me to see Its gradual decay. The windows were stolen: windows I had loved to make shining and white-curtained. The once so-gaily fig ured wall paper fell from the walls In mouldy strips and there was nothing to show that the pan try shelves had once sagged with their weight of preserves, pies and roasts. Yet each spring the plum tree spread sweet sprays of bloom over the eastern end of the house and daffodils glowed in a golden defiance of the decay going on so near them. Underneath the riot of brambles banking one side of the cottage, violets sent up the same perfume they had when there had been those living there to appreciate it. The pink ram bler rose, once so nicely trcl llsed, also refused to surrender and fell about the porch posts in a cataract of feathery green. Sometimes I would visit the little deserted house and In imag ination, on that porch I saw again the two little boys and their small white dog, the pet Tlenty of fine, soft TISSUE Coming 3 Rolls 20c MEN'S KARAKUL WOOL COATS and MACKINAWS on lale in Banquet Room Holland Hotel. 11p PEAE WAOTEED TOP WAGES O LEVEL GROUND SNOWY BUTTE RANCH CENTRAL POINT Telephone 4691 or 4848 Flyer Executed (Acme Ttltphoto) Lt.

Oh, I would sorrowfully re member, that little house had had its share of laughter and Christmas trees, feasting and friends and woodshed discipline. Its idleness and silence reproach ed me. I wanted to start ronring fires and once again give life to the still staunch chimney. I wanted to hang pictures on its walls and fill the rooms with real people, not just imaginary ones.. Two years ago this spring, I said I would never go again; to do so was too harrowing. But the other day I did go, and could scarcely believe my eyes. After twenty long years, some one had seen the possibili ties in the little place, with Its sweet spring water, fuel all about and the fruit trees which needed only a little care to be made productive; some one not afraid to grub out a few berry vines and do a little fussing with a saw, hammer and nails. For the yard had been cleared, the porches mended, new shingles made a bright new roofing and once again window pBnes gleam ed In the sun. And to complete the picture, a small white dog dashed out, barking furiously. Yet something was lacking. Oh, yes! I must, 1 saw, make my new neighbors the present of a duck to wake them mornings; and a hen to lay In the wood box.

The modern world of science and technology passed hira bjr. The same principle applies to farm tractors. The tractor that does a wide variety of jobs unsatisfactorily can't possibly pro duce the greatest results at the leajt cost in any job. But that's what the farmer particularly the small operator has got to do to meet postwar competition: he's got to prvjuct tbi most JooJ possibli u ilb tbt least effort W. nnsenetitly, at the lowest cost. The farmer with 10 acres in truck crops needs one kind of tractor. The farmer with 100 acres in wheat alone needs an other kind or, as is usually the case, two or more different tractors. The trac tor which does a good job Gret Plains may be useless USTSN TO "HARVEST OF STARS" IVTOT SlNrATt KICNTIWCU , SE TOUS NaWSTAPSK Ft STATION AND T1MI INTERNATIONAL HARVESTER TOR SALE IB White Leghorn pul lets Soon be laying. 1 25 each.

Conditions of climate, the lay of the land, and the character of soils In the different parts of this vast country, together with wide variations in the nature of crops and the sue of operations, combine to pro duce wide differences in the requirements for tractors. Harvester's policy is to meet all these requirements. That is why Harvester's postwar line in cludes a great variety of Farmalls and other specialized tractors and attachments rather than a single tractor with a single system of tools. Every tractor in the line was de veloped after scientific research and testing under actual operating conditions showed the specifications needed for efficiency ana economy.
