now geia absolutely the finest, most servicnble implement of
its kind ever produced. Before buying such a tool you'll want
to know how it's built, how it works and what it will do for
you. As to quality of the material and workmanship the name
Deere on it is a sufficient guarantee for you on those points.
For ease of operation and light draft the New Deere will be a
happy surprise to you. The many new features which enable
the operator to do work with it he never could do before, with
a sulky or gang plow, are marvels of simplicity and effective
ness. It takes a whole book and a lot of illustrations to
explain them all. and we know you will want to read the book.
