CASTO IA For Infnats and Chdepiii In Use For Over 3frfiiiirs Always boars aiemfigis;the Signature of r..y.a.. • MOTORI?ING TH FARM THE horse has been declared by Thomas Edison to be the most inefficient machine in the world. In return for the amount of food and care needed, the horse returns less in work than any other machine. The average team of farm horses costs $400, a good set of double harness $100, a wagon without box $115, making a total of $615. A Ford Truck costs $750 at Ford, Ont. A Fordson Tractor costs $850 at Dearborn Mich. The initial cost of motorizing a farm is slightly gCeater than the cost of a horse outfit, but the lower cost of operation and upkeep of the tractor and truck and the greater amount of work done easily put the horse out of the running. Government experiments have proved that the cost of feeding a horse is 8.7 cents per working hour. A team of horses cannot plow more than two acres in a ten-hour day. At 8.7 cents per hour or 17.4 cents per hour for alteam, the cost would be .$1.74, rr 87 cents an acre. A Fordson Tractor plows on an average of seven acres a day. The 'cost per acre averages not more than 75 cents per acre for gas and oil. The Fordson does three and a half times as much plowing in a day at a .smaller cost per acre. Suppose you are hauling produce to market or bring- ing out supplies. If the town is twenty miles away it will take you a whole day to make the return trip • with horses. If you have a heavy load and the weather is hot it will take you two days. If it took you twelve hours, the cost at 17.4 cents an hour for your team would be $2.09. The average cost of run- ning a Ford Truck, for gas and oil, ii 4% cents a mile or $1.80 for the forty miles. But with the Ford Truck you can make the return trip in four hours. The truck enables you to make three times as many trips and at a lower cost per trip. But this is not all, If you motorize your farm you can get up an hour later in the morning. , You, have no horses to feed, groom or harness. You start work after breakfast. When dinner is ready you stop at the end of the field,' drive your tractor direct to the house, eat your dinner, and rest till it is time -to go to work again. " In the afternoon,yourmotor works just as well though the sun is hot and the flies are bad. And at night when work is over you are through for the day,—no horses to rub down, feed or water. You are always free to leave y-our•farm for picnic or vacation—no worry about horses left behind to be cared for. Mvery way you look at it the motor has the advantage over the horse. It eans shorter hours on the farm, more work done in less time and at less cost. Mild Snell, Dealer, Exeter >: I0
