OREGON HARDWARE & IMP. CO ASK AN OWNER A Motor Truck represents an investment in hauling equipment. The truck that does the work year in and year out at the lowest cost proves to be the best investment. Ask any owner of tin International Motor Truck and ho will tell you the lutcrnntioMal cuts tho cost of hauling down to the lowest practical point. ' International first cost is' low because of quantity production. Quality is lhaintained at a high standartl because every important part of the truck is manufactured and each truck assembled in one great factory under central ized supervision. Every lot of material of every kind is subjected to the most rigid tests, and unless it passes i those tests it is discarded. No inferior material or workmanship gets into MOTOR , TRUCKS These things are done because the Idite.rnaMonal. Harvester organization is building not alone for the present but I'm- the future. We want every In ternational Motor Truck owiicr to Jet 1 that he has the best 'truck he can buy and to be able to prove it at any time by any fair test that can be suggested or proposed. Home day you will buy a nmtur truck, if you are the kind of a man that is not satisfied with anything but the must economical truck for hauling and delivery, work, drop us a line, call up, or come in and see us. The more you know about motor trucks, the quicker we can convince you that the Interna tional is a mighty good truck to own.
