TTIKBEK: OMA1IA. FHIIUY, AUGUST 13, 1913. 11 WALLIS COB SHOWS SPEED AT START jBretki World's Record for Plowing Three-Acre Tract on First Say of Show. FAMOUS FOE ITS LONG TRIP The world! record fop fast plowing wss mashed Into atoms on the opening day of the. Fremont demonstration. The Wall's "Cub" tractor, of crone-country lame, lowered the. record for plowing three acres with a four-bottom plow from 7tt minutes to 77 minutes. Coupled with this remarkable perform ance, was the fart that the land the "Cub'' was plowing had a depression half filled with water across it and the plows had to be dragged through this. Other tractors filled their wet spots with straw and Iirted their plows across, but the little "Cub" pulled Its four plows through without lifting them onec. T The rats of speed maintained by the Wallls tractor was greater than la gen (rally necessary In farm operations, but It shows the reserve energy and surplus power to be expected In this machine. ., Two and one-fourth to two and three fourths miles per hour Is the speed or , dinarlly used, but the Walks people be ' lieve that more power should be on land when needed. The wonderful flexibility and power of the motor In the "Cub" was well shown several times during its famous thousand mile durability run. At times mud holes were found In which the drive wheels sank to the hub, but a Judicious use of hains and lugs nd ths great power of the motor made recovery of firm ground ay. In One bad stretch of road just west of Atlantic, la., one drivewheel was deep in the mud, and the whole tractor Inclined at an angle of thirty-five de grees, and yet the engine righted and pulled out under its own power. The J. I. Case Plow Works, general dis tributors for. the. Wallls "Cub," is highly pleased with fhe performance of Its ma chine, both In the durability run and the field work of the demonstration and believe-that their machine will gain the confidence of all traction engine users. . Its motor Is rated as a fifty-two horse power, with a draw bar pull of twenty six horsepower. ' It Is guaranteed to pull four bottoms anywhere, and in very light soils It will pull six. It will handle tho heaviestloads 6n the road at a speed cf four miles oh. hour, or will pull on the belt any machine In use on a mod ern' farm. . - - .,-..

P. Byater, In charge of the Simplex Straw Spreader for ths Mansion Campbell company, dll some real, practical work on the grounds of ths Tractor Farming Demonstration and up on the roads round-a-bout. ' Rains fell Tuesday eivening. and Wednesday, but they did not detrr the crowds of peagVe who were bont upon attending ths dem onstration. Crowds came, mud or no mud. They were prepared for mud, but when they arrived at the grounds, they were agreeably surprised to find tnere was no mud It had been covered up with a nice carpet of straw. ' Many wondered who had Rone t,0 such pains and how the work had been done so nicely, the ground being covered even ly with a good spread ' of straw. Ths explanation was soon .discovered when the men named were seen busily engaged In finishing their work with the Simplex Spreader. The machine sure did make the straw fly, not Into ths winds to be scattered broadcast, but upon the ground where it was directed. An even spread of straw was distributed over an expanse of from fifteen to twenty feet nt every trip across the field. It is said that two men can thus cover from fifteen to twenty acres a day. BEAVER MOTOR HAS FINE EXHIBIT AT FREMONT SHOW The Beaver Manufacturing company, makers of the Beaver gasoline motor, Is certainly a strong booster of the Fremont Trattor demonstration. No less than five men from this concern are In attend ance. These representatives consist of General Superintendent W. A.

The Bates' Steel Mule, is more than a tractor, even Mr. Bryan recognized this fact. Of course it plows pulls three 14 inch plows. But it does more. Its endless track makes it ideal for discing plowed ground. Because you drive it like a real mule one man can drive both iractor and binder in harvest time. It also cultivates corn and other crops. In one machine it combines all the power of a tractor with the general ability of a mule. -' ' ' . ' ' 'a Price .Complete S885 MADE BY pTr3TT TT ME T7HTT T7TT3 WML . 0 rrr? JLLa iMCTOIR CO.
