ONCE OVER AND ITS ALL OVER" yearly becomes
the harvest slogan of a rapidly increasing number of
practical, deep-thinking grain grower men who know that
low production coat ia the surest guarantee of grain profits.
These men are buying McCORMICK-DEERINQ HILL
SIDE HARVESTER-THRESHERS! First, because the
McCormlck-Deering ia a proved success, both at home and
abroad. Second, because they realize the value of depend
able, cloae-at-hand Harvester Company service.
The McCORMICK-DEERINQ Hillside Harvester-Thresher
is a remarkable machine. Built for 12-ft cut, thia combina
tion harvester and thrasher cuts the grain, threshes it
thoroughly, separates it from straw and chaff, and delivers
it into wagon box or sacks. Straw la scattered at the rear
as fertilizer for future crops.
