What constitutes a successful Farm Tractor? .
Isn't the ability to operate successfully and econoniic-
nlty Milder peculiar conditions under which it must work,
after all. tho real test. Every Hanisou owner will tell
you he can operate the tractor at a much less expense
than with horses. Now there is a problem confronting
every farmer today, and' that is gctting a tractor when
you want" it, owing to shortage of Skilled Labor and
Material, demand jEn rope, etc. It will only be possi-i
ble to get about rVtie f-nth enough .tractors to meet the
demand in the State of Oregon this fall, so put in v.uir
order now. Don't wait! .
