THERE ISA RULE Among agricultural engineers tc the ciFect that if you multiply the width of the cut of your implement (in feet) by the working speed' of your tractor (in miles per hour) you will obtain the approximate number of acres yoi can cover in a ten-hour day. Using this, simple formula, voi can easily calculate the numbei of extra hours YOU are spending in the field every day with lh< animal or tractor power you art now using ... as compared witl the speedy 4% miles per lioui working speed of the Allis Chal mers. Then multiply the numbei of hours saved per day by the nun' ber of ten-hour days you now spend performing each of the bar operations on your fann eacli year . . . and you will have the approximate number of hours oi days j T ou can save in a year. The yearly saving will surprise you. Look at the accompanying table, N >> C 3 u 23 o<y aj r 9 1 • V <—Jo Z3 » Ji w T_ ' 23 § £ u gw X ... 4 Hors:s and 2-Bottom 11-Inch Plow 2 ••• 4.86 3-Plow Steel Wheel Tractor and 3-Battom \3}4x\3 ... 10.5 C 14-Inch Piow Rubber-Tired Model "WC" and 2-Bottom x ll.Ofi 14-Inch Plow Four good horses at best can plow less than half as much as either of the tractors. The Allis Chalmers* on the other hand, pulling tAvo bottoms at 4% miles an 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 but 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 bel'tej work. Give yourself a tractor that will enable you to get in from the field earlier each day . . . thai will cover your ground faster without wearing you out ... 0 tractor that will give you spare time for leisure and for pursuing other profitable, activities on your farm. The Allis Chalmers is the one tractor that brings all those advantages to you. You owe yourself the shorter hours which it affords . . . and the freedom from "sun-up to sundown" days in the field.
