FJ1HESE birds are right!
There's not much left in the way of bird food
when you have a clean-working John Deere Com
bine doing your harvesting. The John Deere does
a fast, clean job of cutting, separating, and
threshing all small grains, soy beans, grasses, and
other combineable crops.
In down or tangled beans, in low-growing
crops, a John Deere will do the work better, clean
er, and at lower cost. Quality-built throughout
with many money-saving advan
tages; outstanding for ease of
operation, light draft, simplicity
of adjustment for varying con
ditions, and conven
ience in handling.
There's a John Deere
Combine to fit your re
quirements. Come in
and let's talk it over.
