I As a means of assisting farmers
to modernize their; farms, a new
financing plan has been developed
through whicb '-rtners may proc
ure a Fordson tractor and other
pcressary equipment with only a
email Initial outlay and conveni
ently timed deferred payments.
The heretofore heavy initial ex
pense of motorizing the-American
farm, according tc t!ie United
States department of agriculture.
has retarted to a large degree the
development of agricalture. The
DCf .finance plan circumvent this
bbstancla aad puU moion (
equipment within the easy reacn
of every farmer, and permita him
to operata hi farm along the sama
linea of 'efficiency as the modern
factory, a thing which secreiary
of Agriculture Jardine urges upon
the farmers cf the country.
Although agreeing that tho tre
lor is a means toward greater crop
returns, the lack ot sufficient
capital to meet the Initial coat
has for years prevented many
farmers from taking the step to
ward modern methods. This situ
ation is relieved through the new
arrangement and the fanner, with
out embarrassing himself finan
cially, can begin at once to enjoy
the advantages of Fordson power
ed farm equipment, . . -
