Get More Work Out of Your
Tractor by Using a Tractor
Disc Harrow
Keep your tractor as busy as possible at work
that pays. The more work it performs, the more
profit you wiD secure from jrour investment. ^
Besides using it when you plow, use H in disking be-
fore and after you plow. That makes a well-prepared seed

But if there were gold for the first-

would cost you all that you would lose
by not getting there quickly enough.
Doing without needed implements
costs you nothing—
—if no profits can be made from their
use; if your time and labor are worth
nothing.
But you have a farm to operate. You
have profits to make through increasing
yields per acre; through cutting the cost
of production; through making your
time and labor worth more—through the
use of good implements.
Doing without needed implements
costs you all that you lose by not having
them.

And it doesn’t take long for the cost
of not having, to run beyond the cost of

races in the State numbered 34, which
was an increase of twenty-six during
the ten-year period. Mexicans are
listed as white.
There was a heavy decrease re-
corded in the number of Indians
throughout the United States, ac-
counted for by the enumeration as
Indians in 1910 and as white in 1920
of persons having only slight traces
of Indian blood. Of the total decrease
in the Indian population so recorded,
the greatest drop is recorded for Okla-
homa, where there are Indians to the
number of 55,949, according to the
1920 census as against 74.825 in 1910,
a decrease of 18,876. These figures
will not harmonize with those of the
Interior Department, which lists all
as Indians haying a certain degree of
Indian blood. . ,
