ECONOMY OF SAMPSON SIEfE-WTRICIOR Greater economy on the fajm with a tractor is the slogan of the tractor man of the Utah Implement company, distributors dis-tributors for the famed Sampson Sieve-Grip Sieve-Grip tractor. "Tho economy features of the Sampson Samp-son tractor are so pronounced," said the tractor man, "that it seems hardly worth while to enumerate them; but perhaps a few farmers "know that it is impossible to strip the gears of a Sampson. Samp-son. 'This is a fact, however, and is rendered so by the way in which the engine is hooked up to the differential. The gears arc always in mesh; there is one speed forward and one speed backward; back-ward; but by use of the throttle speeds both forward or backward may be accelerated ac-celerated as desired. "By this simple arrangement the possibility pos-sibility of stripping costly gears is en-! en-! tirclv eliminated, and tiie first big item of economy in a tractor is brought out. Then the radiator capacity of the Samp- son is very large .larger than is neccs-I neccs-I sarv. but the engine always runs cool no rn.itterr how hard the work beinir done.

They are so constructed con-structed that the open sieves grip the road or the soft ground, and the tractor never fails to pull mighty hard when other style tractors are out of it entirely. en-tirely. "Tho big engine of the Sampson has been constructed for one purpose, and that to furnish all the power needed. In this respect it never fails, and the consumption of fuel is always normal."
