On February 19th at 9 a. m., Fordson Tractor Number 100,000 left the assembly line in the Fordson Plant at Dearborn, Michigan, slightly less than two vvl one-half years after number one was completed. And here again has Henry Ford set a new high record in tho manufacture of farm tractors via the Quantity production route. Although the Ford Interests are very recent entrans In the ranks of the tractor man ufacturers, yet Henry Ford really built a tractor of the steam type before he started work on his first gas car. And incidentally, that tractor and the first car, still in very good running condition, and Mr. Ford occasionally demonstrates both to visitors at his farm in Dearborn. Some fifteen years ago Mr. Ford began work on what has come to be the Fordson. This tractor was really a Ford Car equipped Willi special wheels and included ot course some mechanical changes. By 1908 he had a workable tractor; it plowed, narrowed, and did much other work on the farm. Then ensued nine more years of experimental work before the first tractor was put on the market. Fordson tractors are now being assembled at a rate of 350 daily at Dearborn, 100 nt the St. Louis Assembling Plant, and it is estimated that within a short time the Des Moines Branch will be in operation. There is also an assembling plant in Cork, Ireland. HARRISON BROS.
