When this belt had been in use 18 months, the engineer wrote us that it had giv- en double the length of service of belts previously used. This has now been in use over four years and is still going strong. TOP NOTCH This is another case where top-notch efficiency and economy have been obtained by simply installing the right belt for the work to be done. For many years Spartan Belting has been dominat- ing the hard drives that destroy other belts. That experience ranks it as top notch in leather, in tannage and in workmanship. It is unusually pliable, wonder- fully elastic, it is the greatest of pulley grippers and without an equal for high speed, overloa'l drives or where unfavorable conditions exist. Spartan well exemplifies the three principles back of Graton & Knight Standardized Series Leather Belts: First, they are made of the right material—leather. Second, they are tanned in our own tannery specific- ally for belting use, thus assuring the right kind of leather. Third, they are graded into a Standardized Series-—a belt for each class of power transmission requirements—standardized in manufacture and stand- ardized for the work to be done. Certain articles can be tested in a short time—not so belting. It takes years to test out the correctness of principles applied in power transmission. The re- sult of 60 years test of
