New 800 FORD TRACTOR dnd FORD ECONOMY PLOW Ford's new 3-plow 800 Tractor and the easy handling Ford Economy Plow really take tough plowing in stride! With them you can do 6 days’ plowing in 4. And you’ll find that the job goes easier, too. Save plenty on share costs! “Razor Blade” shares for Ford Economy Plows cost so little you can replace for less than the COSt Of With a front wheel in the fur row the Ford Tractor almost steers itself. At headlands, just nudge Ford’s Hydraulic Touch Control lever to lift the plow out of the ground. You adjust plowing depth on the go with the same lever. On tough plowing jobs you’ll appreciate Ford’s new Tailored Traction. As always on a Ford, traction increases automatically on heavy pulls. And now, new easy-on, easy-off wheel weights are available to give you still more traction. A phone call to us will bring a new 800 Ford Tractor and Economy Plow out to your farm for a demonstration.

Weather Balloon Creates Interest What is believed to have been a large-size air force weather* balloon was the ob ject of considerable interest in the sky northwest of O’ Neill. Several jet aircraft left long “con” trails in the vicin ity while looking over the ob ject. A mammoth balloon slipped its leash last week at Iowa City, la., and led flatfooted scientists on a 700-mile chase across the northern United States. It finally dumped its load of precious research equipment near Buffalo, N.Y. Where the wayward balloon which appeared here was headed is a source of consid erable conjecture. Large bal loons when inflated are sever al hupdred feet in diameter. Sun’s rays glinting on the ob ject tended to distort the angles.
