Before placing the tractor on the market, every detail has been thoroughly tried out under actual fai-njing conditions in various parts of this country and abroad. Experience has pojnted to the small, light tractor as being the one machine which will fill all , varying conditions satisfactorily. In developing the "FORDSON" Tractor, the aim has ben to produce a small tractor which will beMow in first cost, reliable, and above all efficient.

It will pull all farm implements and do the work generally doneW horses on the farm. In addition, by its belt pulley the tractor will drive fanji machinery such as a thresher, ensilage cutter saw mill, etc., making the "FORDSON" a truly universal tractor. - ' PERFORMANCE The tractor Ls (losisiiod as a two-plow ma chine and will pull two 14-inch plows in Hie stil'fcst soil. It will maintain a drawbar pull of 1800 pounds at plowing speed. In low year a drawbar pull of 2."00 pounds is obtained.
