In this work, the State College has found that a great many farmers are em-- ploying some of their winter time for the threshing of grain and here, of course, the tractor has been found invaluable.= Many farmers also use their tractors for operat-- ing fodder chopping tmachines and for furnishing power for home grist mills. . Then there is always a certain amount of road work in the coun-- try districts in winter and many of the most progressive farmers have found that they can put their farm tractors to work for the county and state governments in scraping, rolling and repairing country roads. The work of clearing snow from the highways in winter also. offers opportunities to the farmer to make his tractors work for the upkeep in winter.
