RECEIVES LARGEST TRACTOR SHIPMENT ENTERING COUNTY An Avery tractor was not in the least daunted by a deep, rutty, and otherwise unsurmountable wash at the W. B. Scarborough Company ranch the other day, a test given on the company's citrus property. The Avery, together with several other types of tractors, was tried out in the wash, and Mr. McAllister, manager of the ranch, told the demonstrator he did not think it possible for the tractors to get through and pull the load. The other tractors, sure enough, gave up the fight in the middle of the wash, and had to be rescued gloriously by horses. But the Avery, possessing a certain amount of the spirit and much of the strength of the American tanks abroad, bucked the wash successfully, and came out without damage on the other side, much to the amazement of the spectators. Growing in Popularity This example of Avery toughness and strength was only one of a number of incidents which have been rapidly adding to the number of Avery users among the ranchers of Orange county. Farmers here have found a great advantage in the numerous sizes and types of this reliable tractor, which makes it possible for a rancher to serve. A color scheme of pink and green was used for table decorations and places were arranged for Mes-dames Frank Shanley, A. B. McCord, M. C. Goff, Rodger Dutton, Percy Bradford, Thomas Morgan Leo Sheridan E. Hartung Digan of Logansport Indiana Misses Freida Janss, Nina McLellan, Hazel Lacy and Lillian Bennerscheldt.

Farmers here have found a great advantage in the numerous sizes and types of this reliable tractor, which makes it possible for a rancher to "fit his tractor to his farm." Avery tractors have shown a surprising ability to operate successfully in all kinds of soil. The fact that they are extremely easy to operate is appreciated by the purchasers of this standard machine. 700 Avery Tractors in State There are more than 700 Avery tractors in operation in California at present, and more and more are added to the list every day. The 5-10 horse power special orchard tractor is a favorite among the Orange-co farmers. It is low, turns easily and rapidly, and very moderate in price. This is a mighty good tractor for the rancher who has from five to fifty acres. Edward W. Olmstead, the Avery distributor at Anaheim, says that four carloads of Avery tractors have just been received. A fifth carload is due here Mar. 20. The five cars include 29 tractors of various sizes from 5-10 to 14-28, the biggest consignment of tractors ever received in Orange-co. "Those who wish demonstrations of the Avery should arrange for them as soon as possible," says Olmstead, as we intend to make deliveries in the order that the tractors are contracted for, and the demand is increasing everyday." Buys Second Avery "Once an Avery user, always an Avery user," says Mr. Olmstead, who points to Chas. H. Whiting, of Orange, who came into the salesroom this week and drove away his second Avery. Mr. Olmstead has just delivered an 8-16 to Mr. Henning of Los Angeles for use on his Yucalpa apple lands. Mr. Olmstead is much interested in the recent election of Fred Poss, Pacific Coast distributor for the Avery, to the presidency of the California Tractor & Implement Dealers' Assn.
