The memoers" took part m tne gene.-. meeting, which was well attended. Newton Alexander, Farmer, Is All for Farm Tractor Listen, folks! Here's an enthusiast! "The tractor is as far ahead of horses for plowing as is the self-binder ahead of the ancient grain cradle." Newton Alexander, near Whitewater, is our authority. He has been using a small tractor during me iast lew days aiid claims that ' he has plowed 10 acres right along, when he stuck to his knitting and this is daylight hours, with usual rests. Will Dorgan, living across the road on Tom Conniffs farm, also has a tractor and talks the same way. Mr. Alexander says that he put in 27 acres of wheat, that he plowed 12 of it for oats and will harvest the balance. As to hogs, well, he "isn't going to look at a hog until conditions change; nary a hog, unless for winter bacon for home use."
