Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Study of the Cost of Horse and Tractor Power on Illinois Farms That many farmers can cut their operating costs without changing their type of power is indicated by the wide variation found in operating costs among farms similar in size and produc tive organization and operated with the same type of power. On the other hand it is doubtless true that many farmers have profited by changing their power organization and that still others would profit by doing so. Because of its distinctive place on com -belt farms, the general purpose tractor is considered separately from the standard tractor in all analyses of tractor power made in this study.
