FARMER \ and your ground not yet plowed P ‘That it will be impossible to plow in time for wheat with your horses? That every acre of good plowing, instead of being “stubbled in,” will increase your yield from 20 to 50 per cent? : What are you going to do? Take a chance on “stubbling” your wheat, and harvest a crop of thistles? : Can you afford to take that chance? What would a crop failure mean to you? Prices are high, and likely to remain so for a year. A good crop will put you on “Easy Street” and make you independent. - _Of course you would plow your ground if you could, but how are you going to-do it —THAT IS YOUR PROBLEM. i .

The BIG BULL will do this for you and more. LISTEN!! _ : : Hundreds of BIG BULL owners have written the company, that the exclusive sub- soiling feature, caused by the bull wheel running in the furrow, increased their crop yield 10 to 80 per cent. Knute Thompson, Cooperstown, N. D., says, “We believe that last year’s crop in- creased approximately 83% per cent on the land where we have used the BULL for plow- ing, and 1 attribute this increase wholly to the fact that the Bull Wheel runs in the bot- tom of the furrow, and the land on my farm showed in its crop production, whether we used the BULL or used horses, and showed it conclusively. : : WHY A BIG BULL? . ; Because it will do your work better and cheaper. Now is the time to do some figur- ing—Look this cost proposition square in tite face, : : Do you know that it eosts $114.00 to feed a horse 12 months that only works five? : 1t you keep g set of books you know this—if not just talk with some one who does - —or write your Agi'iq}'glltura! ‘College. e, : «'The BIILL'iS"selfaguidlng.
