 permanent. This made necessary the development of the "K T" a System whose success has been so uni- 

 versal as to practically revolutionize irrigation methods throughout the Southwest. The "K T" is Efficient, 

 Economical, Permanent. Once installed, your Irrigation Troubles will be overcome forever.

The Farm Burden Bearer 



and your farm wagon spend a great deal of time to- 

 gether. Of all farm tools it is your standby. Its wheel? bear the 

 burden of big loads towering racks of hay and grain, sacks of produce, 

 loads of sand and gravel, anything that needs moving, over miles of roads 

 to market. It takes solid strength to stand-up long under that. When 

 next you ride on a load, listen to the constant racking, creaking, groan- 

 ing sound of the wagon box, wheels and running gear as the load pitches 

 back and forth over the road ruts. Not an unpleasant sound, but the 



strain that causes it is hard on the wagon. I H C wagons- 



Weber 



Columbus 



New Bettendorf 



Steel King 



give the buyer the most he can get for his money because they defy hard usage for the longest time, and are easiest on the horses. 



This makes I H C wagon reputation: Selection of the finest grades of lumber, oak, hickory and pine, and of the best 

 quality steel and iron; many months of toughening air-drying for every piece of wood; skilled assembling of parts, fitting of bolts 

 and rivets, and perfect shaping and ironing; application of the purest paint to act as wood preservative and to prevent shrinking 



and warping of the wood. When the wagon is ready for the farmer, it 

 is pratically perfect in every detail and thoroughly up to the I H C 

 standard. 



And there are many other reasons we 

 have not room for here why I H C Wagons 

 are the best to buy. Weber and Columbus 

 wagons have wood gears ; New Bettendorf and 

 Steel King have steel gears. A visit and a 

 talk at your local dealer's, where the wagons 

 may be seen and studied, will soon convince 

 you as to the wagon you want. Get cata- 

 logues from the dealer, or, write the nearest 

 branch house.
