Read Pioneer want aas GRAIN AND PROVISION PRICES | JOHN DEERE J CULTIVATORS get the greatest results with the least effort. They have automatic seat shift and horse lift. The automatic seat shift secures perfect control and thorough cultivation in nar- row and crooked rows and on hill sides. . The horse lift relieves the operator of the labor of raising of shovels and enables him to give his entire attention to work re- quiring judgment and skill. Wheels are high and have wide concave tires which prevent sinking in soft ground and sliding on hillsides. It pays to use a cultivator and it pays better to use a John Deere J Cultivator.

This Typewriter has Ball Bearings at all frictional points OU don’t have to be a mechanic to know how ball bear- ings decrease friction and prolong the life of machines. You will find them on almost every kind of machinery where it is desired to secure the greatest efficiency with the least wear and tear. When it comes to typewriters, only one company—The L. C. Smith & Bros. Typewriter Company—has made use of this principle. In the three places where there is continuous motion; where, in fact, there is 98 per cent. of the motion— the typebar joints, the segment shift, and the carriage return, there are ball bearings. They give ease of operation and durability. The touch is lighter, the capital shift works easier, and the carriage is returned easier. If it isn’t ball bearing, it isn’t an L. C.
