You prhai know that the, N'Ortti
Platta Chamber, of Commerca.-t'hrough
its Board of Directors, aalurod -the
Government thru Mr. Dunphy, that
North Platte would provide a Hold nnd
a hangar. A lottse has been loourod
for a tlrm of five years. The hangar
is to bo built by subscription. Com
mittees have been nppointod and to
nay the lonst thoy have had vory good
succesji. Up to date a quota has boon
allotted to oach firm, business and
professional mnn, and tho quota in ,
oach case is the minimum amount, 1
Which, if it is given by oach porson.
will bo onotfgh to orcct and equip thb
hangar ns well as pay the lease for
one year. The cost of tho hangar
will bo a direct cost this year without
cost next year, as tho Government
will pay tho nmintainanco expense.
Aviation is whoro tho automobile
wns flftoon years ngo nnd It will nd
vanco much faster. So it Is up to tho
North Platto peoplo to securo funds
nnd start tho erection of tho hangar
this wcok or we will lose out. If tho
business peoplo pay tho quota nlloted
them by tho commlttco It will ho 1007o

RAIDUM MYSTERY.
Get Full Plow Value Behind
Your Tractor
No matter how good your trac
tor may be, you have to depend upon
the plow behind the tractor for the im
portant, direct work of seed bed-making.
It pays to be especially careful
in choosing your tractor plow.
We offer you the opportunity
to get a John Deere Tractor Plow the
plow that has more than 80 years of suc
cessful plow-making experience behind it.
If you will come in and investi
gate this plow we are sure you will agree
with us that it is the best tractor plow for
you to buy that it will last longer than
any other tractor plow and will give you
better resuits while you are using it.
Especially, we would like to have
you investigate these important features:
particularly adapted for thorough seed bed
making and longer service.
Why the John Deere Quick Detachable
Shares save time and labor and stay close
fitting. How the simple, dependable power lift
device, that raises the bottoms high and level,
works without troublesome chains or
sprockets.
How the bottoms reach full plowing depth
immediately when lowered and are locked
down to this depth while plowing.
How the unusual clearance assures steady work
in trashy land.
How the simple, strong construction through
out assures maximum length of service and mini
mum repair costs.
How the hitch adapts it for successful use with
nny tractor.
We can furnish this plow in two, three or four
bottom sizes.
Remember you need the best tractor plow you
can net. -
