EARNING
CAPACITY
HIS new Model “L” Case Tractor lias
an earning capacity so great that
no student of practical farming should fail
to investigate it and these new tractor
advantages.
Here is a tractor that will pull three,
four or five 14-inch plow bottoms, depend
ing upon conditions. A 28-inch thresher
with all attachments is no load for it.
Yet the tractor weighs but slightly more
than three ordinary draft horses.
Here is a tractor with ample traction,
and still it is light and quick. There are
three forward speeds—2T2, 3J4 and 4 miles
per hour. It furnishes ideal belt power,
smooth and accurately governed at all
loads. Its power is so flexible that a com
paratively small feed mill may be operated
with practically the same fuel econ-
omy as a large thresher. This all-
around usefulness and economy are
exceedingly important tractor advan
tages.
Here is a tractor a boy can operate
with ease. Every control is handy
and responds quickly and easily. The
platform is roomy and the spring seat
is adjustable to the most comfortable
position for the operator. Dust is largely
eliminated by a full platform and fenders
with protecting sheets on the sides and in.
front of the platform.
Complete technical information on this
tractor will be gladly furnished.
