WE'LL DEMONSTRATE!
YOU probably believe in the old saying,
"Seeing js Believing --well, we do too!
Thousands of words have been written on the
tubjeqot "wheels,versus tracks on the farm"—
we admit 'we've done our share.
Now, at the beginning of this new season, we'd
like to • SHOW you what Caterpillar* tracks
will do on your farm. You are -under no
obligation to buy when we demonstrate—but
we 'sincerely believe that you must see to
believe.
If you'd like to see plowing, subsoiling, pasture
renovation, pond -building, terracing, land -
clearing or any other heavy-duty farm applica-
tion—we'll show you how you can do it with
ONE MACHINE — a CATERPILLAR Diesel with
Tool Bar and Dozer.
At the, same time, we'll prove how economical
CAT'power farming really is; thanks to low-cost
diesel fuel and Caterpillar built-in long....life.
Also, how you'll be dollars ahead because your
.track -type tractor can work in all types of soil
conditions—earlier in...the spring and later into
the fall.
Fill in the coupon below and mail it to us.
We'll get . in touch with you immediately to
arrange for a FREE demonstration—right on
• YOUR own farm. '

Too much emphasis cannotOe
laid en taking gardening slowly,
.
Nothing is gained and Often con-
siderable is lost by rushing in too
much, too soon. In the old, old
days everyone would get the whole
garden, both' flower and vegetable,
planted on the first fine ,day and
then, providing it escaped the last
frost, there would be a big display
of bloordaand a feast of vegetables,
for a week or so in the summer.
And that would be about all. ,
Now the present generation is
supposed, to be always in a hurry
but they don't garden in that hap-
hazard fashion. They plant grad-
ually .and they plan to have a suc-
, cession of bloom and a succession
of flowers all through the summer
and fall. But while it is not ad-
visable to .rush things, everyone
with any • interest in this fascinat-
ing hobby wants to have a few
extra early things too.
The main thing is not to risk
all plants or seeds at once. 'Just
.put a few of the hardiest in, a
week or so ahead of the regular
time, and if thess, come along with-
out damage then we have gained
considerable time and we . can
boast to the neighbors. To speed
these very early plantings, we can
boost with- a little quick acting
fertilizer. We can also use start-
ed punts from greenhouse or nurs-
erymen. We can also protect a
few extra early hills of cucumbers,
melons or half a dozen tomato
plants with glass covers or paper
caps. These will ward off any
late frosts and give us a week or
a fortnight extra start.
Wait Until Ready •
It's a great mistake to do any
general sowing or cultivating while
the ground is the least bit muddy.
Heavy soil is . injured and later
trouble results when it is dug or
worked too soon. 'A good test is
to take a little earth and squeeze
it in the hand. If when released
it crumbles but does not pack it
is fit for the spade or plow.
Frequent Mistakes
. Planting too close and too deep
are probably the' most common
mistakes. One should forget all
about the tiny seeds one is sowing
and think only of the size of the
plants those tiny seeds will grow.
Even little fellows, like alyssum
or portulaca, or leaf lettuce and
green onions, require some space
to develop properly. The 'safe
rule is about at least half as much
space between plants as they will
be Jjgh when full ,grown. With
srnW flowers and vegetables "this
means at least 'a couple of inches
between and with zinnias, peas,
beans, etc., at least four to six
inches. With dahlias and corn this
should be 12 to 18 inches.,, The
