The Fordson cuts the cost of preparing land almost
to half of what it costs with horses. But even more important
is the fact that the Fordson saves from thirty to fifty per-
cent of the farmer’s time. And time saved—getting fields in
shape to plant in the proper season; getting things done
when they should be done—means money to the farmer. Be-
sides it helps greatly in solving the labor problem.
As ever, the machine wey is proving more efficient,
faster, easier, than the old hand way. In the factory, the
machine increases production, saves labor—produces more at
less cost. And that is what the Fordson does on the farm.
The Fordson way is the machine way of farming. Besides it
helps the labor problem.
The Fordson’s first cost is low; and the after or ope-
rating cost is low. It is a compact, easily handled tractor,
backed by the greatest tractor service organization in the
world. । u
We are Fordson dealers. Not only do we sell Fordson
tractors, but we carry a stock of Fordson parts and employ
Fordson mechanics to help the farmers get the best results
from the Fordson. Let us demonstrate the Fordson on your

Men's Work!
Some time since a business man
advertised for an office boy, and
it wasn’t long before an ambi-
tious youngster of the red-headed
type was applying for the place,
immediately the examination be-
gan.
“Say, mister,” finally remark-
ed the boy after several minutes
of close questioning, “what kind
of a boy do you want, anyhow?”
“I want a nice quiet boy,”
answered the man, “who doesn’t
smoke, use bad language, whistle
around the office, play tricks, get
into mischief”—
“You don’t want a boy, mis-
ter,” broke in the youngster,
Jinkson, visiting a small west-
ern_town, lost his dog. He rush-
ed to the newspaper office and
handed in an advertisement offer-
ing $100 reward for its capture
or return.
Later to add “No Questions
Asked” to the ad he returned,
to find a small boy at the coun-
ter.
“Where is the editor?” he
asked.
“Out.”
“The assistant editor?”
“Out."
“Well, the reporter?”
“Out.”
“The printer?”
• ‘ Out. ’ ’
“Where has the staff gone
to?” he wailed.
“Ail out looking for your dog,
sir,” came the reply.

“Young man, I understand you
wish to marry my daughter.
What are your prospects?”
“Well, though I have not been
nominated for the presidency yet,
I am the editor of a newspaper.”
“While I admit you have a
chance in that way, tell me of
something more material and im-
mediate.”
“I have ten bundles of print
paper—not simply ordered or on
the way, but right in the house
and paid for!”
“My boy, you’re a wonder.
Take her and be happy.”

RICHES.
The woebegone specimen of the
tramp tribe made a call at a
rural residence to ask for aid.
The door w as opened by a woman
of angular proportions, severe
demeanor and uncertain age and
temper.
Having speedily ascertained
the object of the unexpected vi-
sit, in raspy tones she observed:
“I shall not give you anything.
If you had been wise you would
not have come here. Do you
know who I am?”
The weary wanderer replied
that he had not the pleasure of
knowing.
“Well, I’m a policeman’s wife
and if he were in he would take
you, and very Quickly, too.”
The tired tramp looked at her
quietly for a minute, and then
replied: “I can quite believe
you, ma'am. If he took you he’d
take anybody.”—Pittsburg Chro-

The term, “collective bargain-
ing,” means that wage-workers
shall have the right to organize,
and trough their chosen represen-
tatives, make bargains with their
employers concerning wages and
other phases of their work. Dur-
ing the war this method of go-
verning employment gained full
official recognition, and former
President Taft was chairman of
the War Labor Board that put
teeth into the enforcement of the
principle in industry.
Railroad employers and wage-
workers reached the progressive
viewpoint that the Government
should be taken into considera-
tion as the logical protector of
the public interest, and more
than two million railroad men
agreed with their employers to
an adjustment of wage relations
by the federal government. Other
industries have been asking the
Government to adjudicate their
affairs, and through the plan of
“collective bargaining” the pro-
cess has been making rapid pro-
gress.
The coal miners have been per-
sistent in their demands upon
Washington, and the Government
has been rendering the fullest as-
sistance in settling the troubles
that have arisen. However, it
appears to be up to the coal min-
ers to rid their organizations of
anarchists, bolshevists and I. W.
W’s., since that element is pro-
minent in leadership among them.
And public opinion has passed
the point where it will sustain
such leaders.
