You can make your farm produce more at less cost
and with less effort on your part by using a
Fordson tractor.. '
Not only will it help, you prepare your land and cul
tivate the crops, but it furnishes power for many
other farm jobs.
The Fordson tractor is the result of long study of
farming conditions and it has been proved a suc
