f GRESHAM O IT L O K , Jt is a habit of Henry rord to thoroughly try out and test any product he manufactures before he puts it on the market. He person ally must know it will do all he wants it to do before he will allow anybody else to buy it. For thirty-five years he worked on this Ford- son I ractor. He kept buying land until he had something like eight thousand acres in order that he might get a great variety of soil con ditions containing the plowing problems that meet the farmers of the world, and then the Fordson Tractor was put to work and made to take all sorts of practical tests for years before Mr. Ford put it on the market. It has sold rapidly because when one farmer bought one, he prac tically converted the neighborhood to the desirability and profit of »he Fordson Tractor on the farm. b e c a u ,e SO N GRESHAM Phone 1301 ESTACADA See Fordson Demonstration at C.
