EVERY FARM should have a reliable engine, large enough to'drive not only all the lighter machines about the farm like the churn, cream separa tor. washing machine, grindstone and feed cutter, but in addition, saw wood, pump water, run feed grinders, corn shelters, and drive other machines taking more power. You cannot take a chance with an engine that MAY pull the load —you must be SURE it WILL pull it right through to the end and then be ready for the next job. That’s where the wonderful Type “Z” engine shir.es! We call it a 1 1-2 a 3 or a 6 horse-power engine, but that’s only the NAME-PLATE rating.
