Instead of over the hallowed turf at nearby Kpsom Down* which has bwaa th* scene of the derby for more than a century and a half Although government restrlcItlons prevent publication of weathI er report* and the six* of the probable crowd, only a handful of the Soo mui will be present for th* rare which has been skeletonised Io such an exlent that II won't even be included In th* regular derby record* The hottest hor»e In the substitute i entry list will not be able to mak* 'the race He is Marcel Bou**a< • Djebel. winner of the 2«oo Guinea.

Bobby Jones said the f. S O.

JOHN DEERE BfSl *‘H” THE new John Deere Model “H" has won a mighty welcome with thousands of farmers everywhere because It combines BOTH two-row capacity and amazing small-tractor economy—handles all Jobs on the small farm and the lighter jobs on the large farm, completely replacing animal power. You cultivate 20 to 30 acres in a day, pull a twobottom, 12-inch plow at >-1/2 miles an hour, handle other jobs at equally big capacity. And, depending upon tbe price of low-Cost fuel In your community, your per acre fuel coot runs as low as 1-1/2 to 2-1/2 cents when cultivating, with other jobs in proportion. Tbe Model “H" with its simple, two-cylinder engine design gives you longer life, lower-cost maintenance. It’s a quality tractor in every respect, with 1 a every feature of the larger John Deere General Purpose Tractors ... power for every iob... rear wheel adjustability to fit all crops ... unexcelled vision ... and a wide range of forward speeds.
