Siegler, Mgr., 22-St Spring Grove, IU. ; • if-• '^V ' • 1 b*; -f. '*• i There is every reason in the world why every farmer should buy a Fordson Tractor, while than is not a single reason in the world why a farmer should not buy a Fordson Tractor. • In the claims we make ior the Fordson Tractor as being the superior farm Tractor, there is nothing of boasting. Our claims are based upon demonstrated facte. In every sensible test * r. .that has been made (and we don't believe in any jockeying or technical tests) but in the real > common sense work on the farm--the Work the tractor was intended to accomplish--we say, in all such tests the Fordson has stood head and shoulders abovevall competing Tractors.- ^ And this is best proven in the fact that while there are about three hundred thousand farm "' Tractors in use in the United States today, and while Tractors have been sold to farmers for twenty years, and while the Fordson Tractor has only been on the market Vwo years, more J'*.-than one-third of all the Tractors in use in the United States are Fordson Tractors. ^ ^ P. , y - Now you can't upset a fact. You can't bade away from an established truth, antHflirtre tt, out of three hundred thousand Tractors, one hundred thousand are Fordsons, and there , are probably some fifty different makea^of Tractors on the market. Just let your common * sense consider these facts. "Figs are not plucked from thistle bushes, nor plums from tliorn Wwa" The Fordson Trartorhas the necessary power. It is economical hi operation. 14 is flexil »le in control and operation. It is simple in design, and it is sturdily biiilt of the best Iron >nd steel. It is the product of the genius of Henry Ford, and it wasn't placed on the market until Henry Ford had tested it, and tested it, and tested it, before he asked the farmers to buy it. It is no idle faith that in the Fordson "Tractor Henry Ford has given to mankind one of the greatest benefits which has ever come to civilized man. * A &owwe solicit every farmer to buy one or more Fordsons. Gome in and see the!#. Co®®; in and let us tell you more than we jean in an advertisement. Let us demonstrate to ybu. Let ; UH put it to every teat'that you ask. The Tractor is just as necessary for the farmer as water i* in the house. Come in! Look over the Fordson. Test it. Don't take any chances.; . Don't experiment. Supply your farm '1 the Tractor of established value. !si# • i Hc-r*' , ,....
