PCINTS TO CONSIDER BEFORE 1
PURCHASING A TRACTOR
(By J. S. Buie)
With the extreme shortage of lab
or effecting the farmers of the south
as elsewhere, our ‘attention must be
directed more and more to the use of
improved farm machinery and imple
ments, which will allow one man to
cultivate a greater number of acres,
No doubt many farmers are seriously
considering purchasing a tractor as
a means of relieving this situation,
and to 'these the following sugges
tions based on experiences with an
8-16 I. H. C. tractor on the Georgia
Experiment Station farm may be of
interest.
The value of a tractor lies in the
fact that with it one man can do
more work in a day than a pair of
horses or mules. This allows more
land to be prepared within a given
time than would otherwise be possi
ble. The past season this would
have been of great value to many
farmers, for we remember that but
little lJand was prepared until late in
the spring.
The tractor is not as well adapted
to conditions in the cotton belt as it
is to those of other sections of the
country where the land is extremely
level and uniform. To do its best
work the field must be as large as
possible, fairly level and not cut up
with numerous roads, ditches, fences,
hedges, or other obstructions. For
this reason tractors cannot be pro
fitably used on many farms of this
state. Owing to the fact that most
of the crops grown in the cotton belt
require intensive cultivation, the
greatest use to be made of the tract
or is in the preparation of the land.
It is quite likely, however, that the
small type could well be used in
drawing cultivating machinery thru
many small crops.
The value of the belt power to be
derived from a tractor should net be
overlooked, and especially is this of
importance if there is no gas engine
on the farm. However if consider
able belt power is required it will
probably be best to purchase a small
engine rather than to have this work
conflict with field operations. There
iare numbers of other small jobs such
as pulling small stumps, drawing
‘wagons from the fields, moving hea-

vy objects, etc., that will suggest
themselves to the resourceful farmer
who owns a tractor. X
Inasmuch as the initial cost of a
good tractor is considerable, it is
well for one who is contemplating
purchasing to give careful attention
to the condition of his farm. In er
der to give a fair return on the mon
ey invested it must be used for =
number of days in the year, and also
replace some mules at present re
quired, for if the tractor will not re--
place at Jeast one or two of the mules
at present .required it is very doubt
ful if it will be an economic expen
diture of money for the average
farmer to purchase one.
After it has been definately de
cided to purchase, the size and make
must be considered. This will de
pend of course upon the size and
condition of the farm, as well as the
nature of work required. For in
stance, if the tractor is to be used
for considerable belt work this fea
ture must be given more attention
than if it is to be used wholly for
field work. There are numbers of
tractors being offered for sale at the
present time, some of which are bet
ter in some particular point than oth
ers. The careful farmer will avoid
purchasing a “freakish” type, or one
for which it will be difficult to obtein
repair parts. By all means purchase
from a reputable concern who guar
antee their product, and who have a
reputation to stand behind their
guarantee,
