.J.Heider 12-20 63c.
The depth of plowing was agreed
upon as seven inches, no more, no
less.
J.The Titan had the ill luck of
having plows that would not scour
well. The Heider had a piece of
ground part of which was fall plow
ing and this prevent plows scouring
well at first.
This was a spring Demonstration
and was valuable in answering the
question that has prevailed as to
whether tractors were adapted to
spring plowing. There was no
doubts left in the minds of any but
that the question was answered in
the affirmative. In this Demonstra
tion also, all of the tractors were
given a test of hillside plowing
which proved very satisfactory to
all who are interested in the tractor
proposition.
One of the outstanding results of
the meet was the showing made by
all of the tractors of a much small
er fupl ronsumntion than in the
meet last fall. This is an item that
all are intcersted in. It is because
of this interest in fuel consumption
that we print the table in connec
tion with this article. It should be
understood of course that a table
like this is not. to be relied upon as
an absolute showing. In the nrsi
plae it is not to be taken as the
real fuel usage under actual work
ing conditions for the reason that
the lands plowed were short and the
extra amount of turning increased
fuel consumption probably 25 per
cent over what It would be under
actual working conditions. Anoth
er fact to be mentioned is that the
fuel was uot measured absolutely
accurately, no graduate measure be
ing provided. Other circumstances
two of which are mentioned in
starred foot notes are to be taken
into consideration.
There was a big crowd present,
men being there from all parts of
the county and the Demonstration
proved a success in every way. The
county agent says that the tractor
dealers in the county should be com
mended for their spirit of co-operation
in making the event a success.
Tractors entered in the meet were
as follows:
CASE: George Domingo, Weeping
Water, dealer. Operated by Do
mingo; Also by J. M. Chalfant, Un
ion.
FOKDSON: Harry Williams, Elm-
wood and T. H. Pollock Auto Co.,
Plattsmouth, dealers. Operated by
Williams and R.'C. Hitchman.
HEIDER: Wallace Philpot. Weep

WATERLOO BOY: Gollaher Bros.
Elmwood and Johnson Bros. Imple
ment Co.. Weeping Water, Nebr. Op
erated by Gollaher and Henry
Christensen.
A feature of the meet was the
largo display of tractor equipment,
tandem plows, ets.
The following trucks were al
Maxwell. Dodge, Dc
fiance, Ford, Master, Republic, San
dow and International.
Mpn who have attended Cass
county's two tractor shows say they
get more good out of them than out
of the big ones like those Jieid in
times past at Fremont. N'ebr. Here
they can see tractors under actual
plowing conditions; also the crowd
is not so great but what one can get
close up view of the tractor at work.
It is interesting to note in this con
nection that at the National Tractor
Show held at Atlanta. Georgia, a
short time ago one of the head men
there in a speech said that the ideal
tractor Demonstration was a county
Demonstration "like that held It
Cass eounty, N'ebr."
