The Fordson Tractor is taking much of the
drudgery out of farm life; it « solving the
•abor problem; ia rmlucing the coat of pre

was with horses; and it » uviag oae third to
ose haH ol the farmer’s time; ami making farm
life more attractive.
The Fnrdaon will run your threshing ma
chine and at the most op|»ortune time for
you. It will o|M*rat«* the milking machines,
saw your wood, fill your silo, pump the wa-
ter, and take care of every kind of belt
work
