The farmer has discovered that not only for plowing, harrowing! discing, seeding, mowing, reaping and threshing, but a multitude of other uses: cutting wood; feed; grinding feed; churning; washing; furnishing water in the house; making electric light possible in' the house and aroun® the barns; so that, as a matter of fact, there is l\aixlly an hour in the day when the Tractor cannot be made a profitable servant. There is ditching to do; there are roads to fix:aandvSO on all down along the line of the numerous calls that constantly face the farrtier the Fordson steps in and does the work, shoulders the complete burden of the toil and the hard work, one might almost say "drudgery." This is the Age of Machinery, the day when man plans the day It work, or the year's work, and then turns it over to the Tractor to Execute. Get the book, "The Fordsoh at Worn," because it is free. If you cannot call for it, write and we will mail it to you. The Tractor is not only a necessity to every farmer but is an established utility along a great many commercial lines.
