A' Mogul 8-16 kerosene tractor saves its own price in fuel bill saving, as com pared with a gasoline tractor. Until April 1st the price remains at $675 cash f. o. b. Chicago. Fortunate early purchases of ma terial still allow you this low figure. After April 1st the price will be $725, same terms. At cither price the Mogul 8-16 is by far the most eco nomical tractor because it operates on cheap, common kero sene or coal oil. Gasoline to run the gasoline tractor costs over 100 per cent more than the kerosene a Mogul 8-16 will use. Which is best for you? You know what gasoline costs you, and jrou know what you -pay for kerosene. Figure it out yourself, or see your dealer. This is a saving you can't afford to miss.
