Hoy, Fremont Hoy >f / * HITHERTO the farmer has woven the power of his own muscles with those of the ox, the mule, and the horse, in the development of agriculture. Practical machinery for farming has come to him slowly. Where the value of machinery in labor saving, in profit making, in usefnlness, in comfort*, in luxuries, has in the past been largely confined to fche towns and the cities, it is now open to the farmer who is beyond all question the very bone and sinew of civilisation. Civilization grows upon the land, therefore the land is Father and Mother and Sustainer to the human race, and those who till the soil, who plow, sow and reap, are surely the essentials in human existence. Therefore Machine Power on the farm is ' of the utmost importance and the Pordson Tractor comes to the farmer as the best, we believe, piece of machinery that has yet been devised for his use. We want you to read the book "The Pordson at Work." It is free for the asking, fall in and get one. Drop us a card and we will mail you one without charge. This booklet is along the line of the usual Ford way of giving the testimony of the users, those who have tried out and who know the real value of the Fordson Tractor. This book shows the Pordson at work in some ninety different lines of activity and to the farmer it pi-esents the most valuable evidence of an all-around serviceable, economical, laborsaving and money-saving machine that has ever been placed upon the mpl^ s.t;kefc.
