Threeitems enter intothe most of farming with S a tra&or>-(l Labor, (2) interest, depreciation and repairs, (3) fuel and oil. If you have a tractor that plows only seven acres a day, and the operator's wages are $5.00, then that's 71 cents an acre. If your tractor will plow eleven acres a day, the operators hire is but 45 cents an acre. The tractor that cuts labor cost to the minimum is a big advantage particularly in these days of high wages. Big power in a tractor means capacity to do a big days work. The Hart-Parr 30 has proven its superior power at every big official test entered. In fourteen out of fifteen public plowing demonstrations it has plowed more acres per hour, at a lower total cost per acre, than any other tractor. Ask your dealer or write us for the figures.
