Trustworthy. Loyal. Helpful. Could be a description of your B-10 tractor,
too. Be prepared to have it perform good turns for you every day...
Good deeds like hauling and mowing and tilling and rolling and throwing
snow off of your driveway when winter comes.
It's eager, it's energetic, and versatile as a scout knife with umpteen blades.
Jn fact, umpteen is precisely how many tools you can get for a B-10, same
as a farmer buys his implements.
Don't be a tenderfoot...come on in and see us at B-10 headquarters and
go first class! It'll do everything but tie knots!

of-way when one already exists.
The FPC reveals that this is
the first time landowners have
been allowed to be heard in a
pipeline case, an assn, spokes
man noted. In a previous de
cision, the FPC had forbidden
Manufacturers’ from using the
newly laid line east of New
Holland because the company
had not been able to prove an
emergency existed.
It is reported that work has
been halted on the line from
Marietta to Eagle and no clear
ing or moving of stone from
the new 20” line has been done.
The Lanchester Landowners
Association hopes to have a
large representation of farm
ers all along the pipeline at
their April 19th meeting at
Paul Z. Martin’s in Blue Ball;
development of the pipeline
case will be discussed, the
spokesman announced.
Another hearing on the case
before the Federal Power Com
mission in Washington D.C is
scheduled for May 8, to hear
more testimony.
