| P t 5 Adies a FORDSON TRACTOR FINDS FPAVOR AT THE C.N.E. A triumph of no mean order has scored by the exhibits of the Ford Motor Company of Canada, Limited, at the Canadian National Exhibition at Toronto.

Among the Lakes in the Clouds one may enjoy tea in the com« fortable log cabin erected for tht comfort of the climbers. There is opened to tourists this summer a new resort of rustic design in the Canadian Rockies on the sandy beaches of lake Windermere, the loveliest warm water lake in British Columbia. Lake Windermere is sitâ€" uated apout 170 miles south of the Main Line of the Camadian Pacific and is reached from the main line at Golden, or from Colwalli on the Crow‘s Nest, the station being Lake Windermere. Take for example the mere niatter of holding the steering, wheel., The careful driver has a firm grip on it, the right hand clutching the wheel at a point about oneâ€"third of the ‘distancé up from the bottom point of the right side, and the left hand placed at a point about oneâ€"third of the distance down from the top of the left side. On the other hand the careless driver may usually be found with one hand, or two, hanging loosely over the lower rim of the wheel and palms down. Experienced drivers in nearly every instance clutch the wheel from below Care and caution applies even to the manner in which the steering wheel is held, either at slow or high speed, and to the position of gear shift when ascending or descending a grade. The careful or cautious driver is such, not by reason of fear of any kind, but usually from force of habit. He is careful or cautious unconsciousâ€" ly. It is in his repair bills that are lower than others; it is he who knows there is "service‘" in his car and that it is up to him to get it out of it. Summarized briefly, the characterâ€" istics of a good driver, are care and caution under all circumstances and conditions. These apply with equal force to slow driving through congestâ€" ed traffic or on the highway, with nothing either before or behind loomâ€" ing as an obstruction of any kind. The general concensus of opinion of tractor fans at the C.N.E. was that the Fordson was without peer for field operations, and in a class alone as regards belt power, its supremacy in the latter sphere being due to the new Taco Governor. This exclusive Fordson attachment, which throttles the engine down to any constant speed desired, no matter how sudden a variâ€" ation may be put upon the load, puts the last touch on mechanical perâ€" fection. Perhaps where Fordson shone most in the estimation of the onlookers was the way he changed his gaits. There was no alternative dawdling and racâ€" ing like his competitors. Little Fordâ€" son with his three speeds showed that he could walk, trot and run, that he possessed a drawbar pull of 18§00 lbs. on plowing speed, 2500 lbs. when mud, heavy pulling or an obstacle demandâ€" ed it, and still had enough ginger left from his breakfast of cheap kerosene to run Mr. Farmer home at a 12% mile clip when the supper bell rang. little Fordson is beginning to make his voice heard as by no means the least important member of the Ford Trio.
