Excerpt from Traction Farming and Traction Engineering, Gasoline Alcohol Kerosene: A Practical Hand-Book for the Owners and Operators of Gas and Oil Engines on the Farm; Comprising a Full Description of the Leading Makes of Farm Tractors With Directions for Their Care and Operation The gasoline motor, adapted as it is to the use of fuel in the form of gasoline, kerosene and alcohol, furnishes a source of power for both traction and stationary pur poses that is at once economical, clean and safe, and is able to develop power from a fuel, the supply of which is practically inexhaustible. The use of the gasoline mo tor has become so general that we find it in use every where, and practically for all purposes where power is needed. One of the most hopeful signs, and one which presages future prosperity, is the rapidly increasing use of gaso line traction engines on the farm. Mechanical power applied to the heavy work on the farm enables larger areas to be handled, and as a consequence the production is increased accordingly. Because the farmer is aided by mechanical power to make the earth yield more abun dautly, the city dweller is able to obtain the necessaries of life at a less cost than would be the case if all labor was done by hand.
