TRACTORS ir4 BROCE °
Big news in the summer of 1917
was the announcement that tractors -I,
had been introduced in Bruce
County and four had arrived in
different parts of the county. The
district agriculturalist, N. C.
McKay, was demonstrating_ their
use as a motive power in plOwing.
Coal oil was used as fuel but the
engine was so constructed that
either oil or gasoline could be used.
It was felt that tractors would have
also been busy in Huron, if Huron
County Council had not voted down
the district agricultural repre-
sentative.
