: ;
THE STOVER ENGINE is an ideal farm power. More than that it is a prac
tical farm power. The Stover Engine is simple and strong. It has few parts.
Take the cut of the Stover shown here and compare it with the picture of any
other engine on the market. Compare the engines themselves if you can. Note
the difference. Notice that the Stover is stronger and better in every detail. Now,
why don't you get next to the fact that you are cheating yourself by not owning
one of these engines? Everyday you are doing lots of work that could be better
and more cheaply done by a Stover Engine. Get the idea that an owner of a gaso
line engine has to be an engineer out of your head. He doesn't that is, if his
engine is a Stover. A few minutes instruction will make you able to operate
your Stover as an old hand. That's why we say that the Stover is an ideal farm
power. It is made right. It is giving satisfaction to 3500 users right here at home
in Oregon, Washington and Idaho. We sell them in sizes ranging from one to
sixty horse power.
WE ASK ONLY THE OPPORTUNITY TO SHOW YIU WHAT THE STOVER
WILL DO FOR YOU
