the leaders. : Owners have always praised their simplicity .and
stability of construction, their economy in operation and their
constant: power. Official testshave furtherrproved our claims.
Simplicity Means a Great Deal
In our claims for superiority we lay great stress upon the simplicity of .
' Case steam engines. v For instance, tne generous size of the fire-box and
the sp'ace before it, which permit of freedom in firing, afe features which
appeal to all operators." The working parts, too, are in full viewnd within
easy reach. It is just such things as these that mark Case tractors in dis- ,
tinctfon to others. r- ' - , - , . - -

r Famed for 74 Years
- Since 1842" Case machinery has known world fame.
For years, even in the face of the popularity of the gas
tractor, we have continued to refine and improyeCase
steam engines. Oar lines stand today with an Unmatch
jible pedigree la them are embodiea all our experience
in designing and manufacture , v.r -
. Every man who is considering the purchase of a ':
eieoia iraciur must o uumum wu.u ,aav wju ta
merits. Comparisons Should be mado much can be
learned from the experience of other Case owners.
We make Case steam tractors in seven sizes: 30, 40,
50, 65, 75, BO and 110 h.p, &
