LIGHT DRAFT 

 PLOWS 



Built for the Field Test. 



Three-Quarters of a Century of "Knowing 



How" Hammered Into Every 



One of Them. 



The product of the Parlin & Orendorff Co. has 

 always been noted for simplicity of construction, 

 great strength and ease of operation. It was upon 

 such a basis that the founders of this business made 

 their implements, established their reputation, and 

 built their factory. It is upon the same foundation 

 that the business has been carried on to this day, 

 and in 1917 we celebrate our Diamond Jubilee; 75 

 years of practical experience gained through con- 

 stantly striving to provide for the exacting require- 

 ments of three generations of American farmers. 



For an even three-quarters of a century we have 

 met the demand, and today we operate the largest 

 and oldest permanently established plow factory in 

 the whole world. "It's the way we build them." 



Light Draft Plows, Harrows, Planters and 

 Cultivators are made in all types and sizes, 

 to meet the conditions in all sections, and 

 are Backed by an Unqualified Guarantee. 



We also make the most complete line of Trac- 

 tion Engine Plows produced, and we have a special 

 catalog devoted to these famous plows. 



The ^fcO Little Genius 

 Engine Gang Plow 



was the most popular plow shown at all points on 

 the 1916 National Tractor Demonstration. 



We will send P & O Catalogs to any address. 

 While P & O Implements are sold only through 

 established implement dealers, we welcome corres- 

 pondence from farmers in all sections.

that the following varieties be classed

Aiken Red, Arkansas Black, Baldwin, 

 Black Ben Davis, Black Twig, Kaighn 

 Spilzenberg, Gano, Mclntcsh Red, Wine- 

 sap, Spitzenberg (Esopus), King David, 

 Vanderpool. Seconded. 



Dr. King of Wenatchce asked for in- 

 formation on the various varieties of 

 Spilzenberg and the reason for leav- 

 ing Jonathan out of the "Solid Red 

 Varieties." 



Mr. Gwyn of Wenatchee asked for 

 information whether all "Solid Red 

 Varieties" were presumed to carry 

 the same percentage of color. Mr. 

 Schwartze explained that it was his 

 plan to consider color percentage later. 



Mr. L. J. Blot of Spokane protested 

 against lowering the standard of Jon- 

 athan. 



J. ¥. Sugrue of Wenatchee spoke in 

 favor of maintaining the standard of 

 Jonathan. 



Moved by C. R. Clark of Wenatchee 

 as an amendment to the Schwartze mo- 

 tion that Kaighn Spilzenberg and Gano 

 be taken out of the "Solid Red Varie- 

 ties." Seconded. 



The vote of the meeting being taken 

 separately on these two varieties, 

 Kaighn .Spilzenberg was transferred to 

 the "Striped or Partial Red Varieties" 

 and Gano left in the "Solid Red Vari- 

 eties." 



It was moved and seconded that 

 Jonathan be included in the "Solid Red 

 Varieties." 



Moved by N. D. Austin of Wenatchee 

 that a roll-call vote be taken. Sec- 

 onded. Carried. 



On roll call 75 votes were recorded 

 for the motion and 85 against. Mo- 

 tion lost. 



Moved by E. S. Russell of Wenatchee 

 that, in order to facilitate matters and 

 save time, the chairman of each dele- 

 gation cast the vote of his delegation, 

 any dissenting votes to have the priv- 

 ilege of announcing themselves, except- 

 ing that if demanded a roll-call vote 

 shall be taken. Seconded. 



Moved by John F. Davies of Spokane, 

 as an amendment that the chairman of 

 each delegation "announce" rather than 

 "cast" the vote. Seconded. Amend- 

 ment carried. Original motion carried. 



J. F. Sugrue of Wenatchee protested 

 the vote of the Cashmere delegation, 

 claiming that they were not following 

 their instructions, and he presented 

 to .\ssistant Connuissioner Morrison a 

 resolution said to be signed by the ma- 

 jority of the Cashmere growers. 



W. Gwyn of Wenatchee contradicted 

 Mr. Sugrue and jirotested against the 

 introduction of the resolution in the 

 records of the meeting. No action was 

 taken. 



J. R. Schwartze of Yakima presented 

 the following list of "Striped or Partial 

 Red Varieties" and moved its adoption: 



Delicious, Stayman, Jonathan, Snow, 

 Ben Davis, Hubbardslon, Northern Spy,
