A Range of Choice From the Best Gars Made in the World to the
Best Cars Made at the Price.
t m mfTfr.
There arc many definite reasons for the
soothing restfulness of the Cadillac.
Not the least of these is the element of phy
sical and mental ease.
The Cadillac V-type engine is so free from
sound and shock that those in the car are
actually unmindful of its mechanism.
The power impulses, Merging one into an
other, result only in a smooth glide or a
swift spurt, depending upon the mood of the
driver.
Everything in the Cadillac contributed to make its passengers feel pleasantly
remote from mechanical operation.
They are freed from any harsh and nerv racking reminders of machinery and
are conscious only of an exhilarating Rense of motion.
To ride and be unconcious of the power which bears you forward is one of the
great joys of Cadillac ownership.
This is one of the qualities for which the Cadillac has come to be known as '
the standard of the world.
CASE r.t
Ask the man who owns one as to what kind of service it has been
Riving him so far this season. There are several in this territory
With the late spring we are having it is going to be impossible for fanners
to pot their" crops in with teams, and get them in when they should be
gotten in.
The farmer who trots his breaking done and crops in NOW, will be the
farmer who will CASH in this fall, and it will be on account of his having a
TRACTOH, in order to get the greatest amount of work done within the least
possible time.
Checking over and comparing the several tractors you are considering will
guide you in a satisfactory, money-saving purchase.
This Case 15-27 is conservatively rated. While rated at 15 horse power
on the drawbar it can deliver more than IS While rated at 27 horsepower
on the bolt, it can deliver 3:1.
Come in and look this tractor over, we have a limited numbor on hand,
and can make immediate dolivery.

VALVE-IN-HEAD
EIGHT
Why Valve-in-head Improves the Eight.
The merging of these two greatest power principles the Valve-in-IIead idea and the Eight-cylinder
idea, brings to the Eight its greatest development. It marks finality in Eight construction. It overcomes
the heretofore shortcomings of the Eight and means that you now get with the smooth-powered flexible
Eight astounding economy and unbelievable simplicity.
This result is not in the theory of engineers or seienticts. It is the decision of the motoring public
50,0(J0,000 mile test 5,000 Jackson cars in the hands of users, averaging about 10,000 miles a year.
Jackson's tremendous power was further increased 20 per cent. So motor of the same ' piston dis
placement and weight delivers or even claims to deliver as great power.
Jaskson Valvc-inllead Eight economy is amazing-Mhc average is 17.7 miles per gallon. The acces
sibility of the Jackson Valve-inilcad is most surprising. Anyone in 12 minutes can make tappet adjust
ments. Oiling the motor while running was another groat problem of the Eight-cylinder construction that
hasLeon ma.sterod in the Jackson in this way: Your foot throttle automatically regulates the oil supply
ns you foel your engine. "While running, your flow is distributed in proper relation to the speed.
Jackson Valve-in-llead eliminates carbon troubles, carbon deposits in the cylinder barrels are abso
lutely prevented because the Jackson pistons over-travel. Spark plug troubles, too, are practically elim
inated, being placed farthest from the exhaust manifold and out of the path of the burnt gases.
The easting of the entire 'V" with the upper half of the crank case results in the ending of vibra
tion. A special Jackson lubricating device for the looker arms gives silent operation.

A Satisfying Car to Own
You can't find anywhere a better satisfied group of car owners than those who drive Elcars. You don't find
them making excuses that "Its a good looking car, but " You find them 100 Vr enthusiastic.
The new model Elcars we are putting out for 1918 have been called the "beauty" cars of the season. All the
newest ideas in body designing. Graceful lines. Exquisite finish, put on to wear.
You'll find the designer didn't forget comfort. Each of the four Elcar models is roomy. The upholstery Is
deep. The springs suspension is wonderfully efficient. You get jolt-free riding such as you get only in cars of the
best-built kind.
The construction of the Elcar is as noteworthy as its appearance. Every part is made 150 strong. That
means dependable service and freedom from repairs. The motor is a great combination of power, speed and en
durance. That means driving pleasure. The upkeep is ex-ceedlngly low, in tires, in gasoline and In oil. That means
genuine satisfaction.
Yes, the Elcar challenges them all. Lots of cars cost more, but here a car that will satify you in appear
ance Inperformance and gratify you in its low upkeep.
