CASE KEROSENE TRACTORS
Plow Deeper — Bigger Crops
Case 10-20 Features
1— ‘Pulls three 14-lnch plows any
where a team can continuously
pull one plow.
2— Most powerful tractor in the
6000 pound class. Delivers 14 7-10
per cent more drawbar horsepower
than rated.
3— Has 4-cylinder Case valve-in
head motor — head removable.
Burns kerosene successfully and
economically. Efficient air strain
er prevents dust and grit enter
ing cylinders. Motor equipped
with Sylphon Thermostat to re
tain proper temperature of water
surrounding cylinders, thus in
sures perfect combustion at all
loads.
4— Cut steel heat treated transmis
sion gears, enclosed and running
in oil. Hyatt Roller Bearings.
5— When plowing, all wheels travel
on unplowed ground. Combined
tire width 32 inches. Abso
lutely no side draft.
6— Friction clutch pulley wdth brake,
regular equipment. Drives 20x36
Case Thresher with blower, feed
er and grain handler; Case No.
15 silo filler and other machines
requiring similar power.
7— The 10-inch idler can be clutched

THIS Case 10-20 pulls three plows in sod as
well as stubble. And it will not “rear-up*’
when plowing upgrade.
While the soil in different fields and the price
of kerosene in different localities vary, we can
give you an idea of what this tractor will do by
stating that in August, 1917, the University of Ne
braska found that it plows one acre in one hour
and six minutes at a fuel (kerosene) cost of 20}£
cents, plowing at a depth of 6 inches. We know
of no other tractor that works so economically.
This all-’round tractor is at your service day
and night, always ready at the exact time you
want to use it. It is sturdily built and bound to
outlive others.
We are always glad to talk tractors, and will be glad
to tell you about this and other Case tractors. Be sure
to see us before you buy.
