Book Description
Excerpt from The American Thresherman and Farm Power, Vol. 23: May, 1920 We must go back a bit: back of the telegram lying on his desk to events that had happened two days before. The shift in time brings a shift in scene. Instead of starting in the Middle West, this story started in New England. Charlie Blake, a country dealer of Blank's farm power machinery, had entered a tractor contest. A small county fair was being held near Spring field, Massachusetts; on the final day of the fair, in lieu of automobile races, this contest would be held. Charlie was not well posted on tractor contests; indeed, he could have known more about tractors themselves. But he was a zealous partisan: no odds were too great for him. He was willing to promise anything about his line of goods, and - to do him justice - he expected the Blank line of machinery to fulfill e'very promise. Acting as direct agent for a big Boston jobbing house, he intended to sweep the boards with the two sizes of Blank tractors that he handled.

Book Description
Excerpt from The American Thresherman and Farm Power, Vol. 21: May, 1918 Seed growers prepare their land for the seed crop by cultivating the soil several times. Areas under one management, consisting of from one thousand to five thousand acres, are cultivated much as the average gardener Operates a small plot. Cultivation follows steadily, thus not per mitting weed growth to develop. The crops are produced without irrigation, except where the moisture Of the soil is not sufficient to meet the requirements of the crop. But usually, in these dark, deep soils, the moisture is sufficient. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
