“FLU” CREEPS UP ON
YOU LIKE PROHIBITION
Searcy, Nov. 1.—The fol
lowing graphic description of
influenza symptoms was writ
ten by Will R. Jones of Little
Rock, to Henry Patterson Sr.,
of Searcy:
“If you haven’t had the flu,
you can tell when you have it
by my symptoms. It creeps
upon you like prohibition did
on Kansas. First you have a
chill, and your teeth make
more racket than a tin lizzie.
Your back gets so cold it
would make a cake of ice
sweat, and you have fever at
the same time. You take
your temperature with a bar
of cold iron; you hold it in
your mouth and if it gets red
hot you have only 300 de
grees of fever, but if it gets
whitehot you have 500 de
grees, and had better take
something. You sneeze 60
times to the minute. When
you sneeze, your head leaves
your shoulders about four feet,
your neck stretches like rub
ber; it’s the rebound that
hurts. Your back hurts some
too. If you happen to sleep,
you dream that the butcher
is reomving your backbone
with a dull cieaver. livery
time you get a long breath, it
feels like you have swallowed
a handful of fish hooks. And
your eyeballs and lids are so
sore you don’t bat them at
all, just grease them to keep
them from drying uo. Your
ears are there just for orna
ment; you can’t hear any
thing. Your nose gets
scared; it just runs all day.
You only take 15 kinds of
medicine—a dose every four
minutes. Of course, I may
have just a slight case of it.”

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

tain proper temperature of water
surrounding cylinders, thus in

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}i
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.
