:'who: farms
What would you do if you had more time
more hours in the day, in the month? Would
you use that time to farm more acres and earn
more money to farm your present acreage
more thoroughly and win premium crops to
have more leisure and more minutes for the
good things of life?
Do you pay too heavy a tribute of hard work
and long hours in this mechanical age? Do
you know that the upkeep and operation of a
modern tractor need no longer worry you?
"Caterpillar" Farming is the Answer
Let us tell you how this method will save
you money.
