ANNOUCEMENT We are now handling the International Harvester Co.’s line of farm machinery in this territory This includes the new McCormick Deering TracTracTor, pictured shove, that has proven to be very satisfactory in this country already. McCormick-Deering TracTracTors are the most ac cessible crawler tractors built. Steering clutches and brakes are all easily inspected and adjusted. The starting system is the simplest and surest of any so far devised There is no starting motor. Within a short time we will have on display one of the new International harvesters and one of the Diesel 40 Tractors These make a harvesting unit that can not be beaten for use in this county Before harvest we will have a stefck of repairs for harvesters, and hay machines so that we can care for the needs of IHC users in the county. Extras for all International machines can be purchased here. McKEAN & SEARCY Moro, Oregon
