HUMOROUS 
My dog is called an Irish setter, 
lie cavorts from place to places, 
Caroms into chairs and va.ses. 
Crashes into desk and table, 
Smashes all that he is able. 
Sad but true. 
Hence I tbink it would be better 
If we calh'd him an upsetter! 
Do not youV

Strength and Results 
Big crops come from well prepared seedbeds. Perfect disking is 
what does it. Use specialized tractor tools that will make your 
tractor give the biggest and best results. Plowed ground or stubble— 
it is all one to the sturdy 
Tractor 
Disk Harrows 
Once over is enough—no packing from the tractor wheels. Because 
of the rigid frame it thoroughly pulverizes and levels the land. Com¬ 
pare the work of the rear disks with those of any other type and see 
why the CUTAWAY (Clark) Tractor Harrows lead in popularity. 
They have made good not only at tractor demonstrations, but in 
actual farm use under the most difficult conditions for a dozen years. 
Entirely successful on work in every section of the country. Two 
types, light and heavy. Hitch is adjustable to fit any drawbar. The 
draft is light for the work accomplished. 
They are built of special steel, extra strong to stand 
hardest tractor strains. Special heavy disks of 
cutlery steel forged sharp. Sizes for every

More Corn Money With Less Work 
'pROM every corn field two crops can be 
harvested — one of grain and one of hay. 
The usual practice is to harvest the grain and waste 
the hay. The value of the wasted hay (stover) is 
estimated at $320,000,000 yearly, an average of 
$260 a 5'^ear for every corn growing farmer. 
This is something for farmers to think about and 
to act upon now. Eighty tons of good palatable 
roughage on almost every 40-acre field of corn is too much to 
waste this year with hay ])rices where they are. Harvest your 
corn with a Deering, McCormick, Milwaukee or Osborne corn 
binder and make two savings — one, the $260 which is now 
going to waste, the other, a big saving of time, labor and 
money in the harvesting of the crop. 
Cutting five to seven acres a day, w’ith a tractor or horses 
doing the hard work, and saving the expense and the trouble 
of getting corn harvest help, the corn binder is certainly worth 
having. 
Write for catalogues and get in your order now for a Deer¬ 
ing, McCormick, Milwaukee or Osborne corn binder, so that 
you can pocket your share of the corn crop saving that will 
surely be made this year.
