THERE IS A RULE among agricultural engineers tc • the effect that if you multiply the width of the cut of vour implement (in feet) by the working speed of your tractor (in |ni-leJ per hour), you will obtain the approximate -jiumber of acres yov can cover in a ten-hour day. Using this simple formula, yov can easily calculate the numbei of extra hours YOU arc spending in the field every lay with lh< aTiimal or tractor power you are now using .... as compared witl the speedy 4% miles per houi working speed of the Allis Glial mers. Then multiply the numbei of hours saved per day by the nun" her of ten-hour days you no-w spend performing each of the bar operations on your fa*rn eacli year . . . and you will have tht approximate number.of hours ov days you can save in a year. The yearly saving will surprise you. . Look at the accompanying table.

The Allis Chalmers,, on the other hand, -pulling two bottoms at 4% miles ail hour, actually plows more acres than does a larger, slower tractor, pulling three bottoms at three miles an hour. You can cover the same amount of ground in less lime, hut you have done it with a smaller, less expensive tractor . . . one that you can better afford to operate. Treat yourself to a tractor . . . at a price you can afford to pay . . . that will cover more acres in less time . . . and do bette.r work. Give yourself a. tractor that - will enable you to get in from the field earlier each day . . . that will cover your ground faster, without wearing you out . . . a tractor that will give you spare time for leisure and for pursuing other profitable activities en your farm. The Allis Chalmers is the one tractor that brings all these advantages to you. You owe yourself the shorter hours which it affords . . . and the freedom from "sun-up to sundown" days in the iield. life-Chalmers FARM TRACTOR District Agents .* Mac Lean Motors LIMITED.
