We want you to see Models 34, 36 and 38 either
at The Dalles or at our Moro, Arlington, Condon
or Goldendale salesrooms.
These harvesters are of the old reliable Holt line of 40 years stand
ing, vastly improved and now being built by the Caterpillar Tractor
company. — .
Into these advanced machines are going the same high grade of work
manship and materials that thousands of Caterpillar users will testify
are found in the Caterpillar tractors.
The new features and improvements of the 34, 36 and S8 were not
developed from theory, but from actual experience in the field— from
the experience and suggstions of wheat farmers, and from an ex
haustive 8tody of the problem» of the qien who operate the machines.
