Only Half an Hour from Town
; ODERN business men and farmers
have ceased to measure distances by
miles. Minutes serve instead. "We
are just half an hour from town,"
says a farmer who lives seven miles
out and owns an International car. "I went to
town today, starting half an hour after my
neighbor went by my gate with his team, and
I passed him just where the main street pav
ing begins. We visit every friend within thirty
miles, hear lectures, see entertainments, have
a better time in every way since I bought an
International Commercial Car
An Ohio business man says "When I am
using my International Commercial Car the
expense is aboutthe same as with a team, but
when it is not in use it is not eating, and,
therefore, costs nothing. After ayear's experi
ence, I find the repair bills to be no more
than the bills for shoeing, harness repairs,
wagon repairs, painting, etc, and there is the
added advantage of getting around three times
as fast."
When you own an International Commercial
Car you make the trips you used to neglect
because you did not want to take the horses
from their work. It can be used in all sea
sons when the road is passable to horses. The
wheels are high enough to give ample road
clearance. Solid tires give good traction and
eliminate many tire troubles. The engine is
simple and powerful. It will ray you in many
ways to know all about the International Com-
niercial Car. A letter brings full particulars
with many interesting facts and figures.
