The cold nature of undrained soils calls for consideration, be- cause undrained soils cannot be satisfactorily worked so early in the spring as those which are drained, for if any attempt is made to cultivate them puddling is the result, and the texture of the soil may be so injured that its restoration to a fit state for the growth of crops may be verv cliiri- cult. This circumstance, owing to f/IRt1PUHPCNQINC3 A PUMP ENGINE THAT OUT- PUMPS WINDMILLS AND RUNS ANY HAND POWER MACHINE! Why use a hand pump or wind mill ? The former is slow, very tiring and expensive, and the latter s quite dependent upon wind, and consequen ly often very troublesome. There is a little engine for sup- erior to both and it is quickly replacing them al over the State; it's the Fuller and Johnson FARM PUMP ENGINE w ich will pump 500 gallons per hour from we Is up to 300 feet deep and requires abso- lu ely no attei tion. The engine is delivered all ready for working; you just attach i to the pump stork, start it, a d leave it. It re- puires no special platform, belts, anchor- po t-, etc. Rememi er, too, that it will work on any hand pump. If not wanted for the pump, just take along to the churn, separcstor or other liglit machine and attach the pulley provided; or you can use i for watering gar- dens, spraying, etc.,—throws a column of wa er 60 ft. high. It costs only Id. per hour to run. It is, undoubtedly, the handiest farm engine known and construct- ed so that it can be easily operated by those wh') liave no experience of engines; it runs without flame, smoke or smell, needs no attent- ion, and is as near troubl -and- accident-proof as an engine could be.
