Not illustrated. 1896 edition. Excerpt: ...of same height as the one and three-quarter inch wheels bought with the wagon had been provided, so that we hauled the same wagon with the same load over exactly similar roads, measuring the draft by means of a new self-recording Dynanometer, which had been carefully tested for accuracy. The road on which these trials were made was almost level and somewhat firmer at the surface than corn land in spring when dry enough to plow. Unfortunately a stratum of frozen earth about four inches.from the surface prevented the narrow tire from cutting a deep rut. This layer of frozen earth also explains the decrease in draft of the narrow tires when run for a number of times in their own track. SUMMARY OF RESULTS.

A good horse is estimated to exert a pull of 150 pounds for 10 hours per day, moving at the rate of two and one-half miles per hour. This means that there was a saving by using the broad tires of slightly more than one-third of a horse. Or that the same team, exerting the same pull or doing the same work, would have drawn one-fourth larger load. In other words, the 2350-pound load pulled as heavy as a load of 3037 pounds should over the same road in the same wagon if six-inch tires were used.
