More than 100,000 Fordson tractors have been sold to fanners in
the United States. They are helping those farmers do more and better
work in less time and at less cost. North, East, South, West,—every
where the Fordson has proven itself a money-maker and a real neces
sity to the farmer. Besides it is helping mightily to solve the labor
problem.
These one hundred thousand and more practical farmers have af
firmed the economy—the exceptionally low fuel and operating cost—
of the Fordson; its time and labor-saving qualities and its ability to
increase production. The Fordson was built to be the most econom
ical tractor; it is compact and devoid of excessive weight. And it is
built of the same strong iron and steel as is in the Ford car.
Winter or bad weather does not hinder the Fordson’s usefulness.
Day or night—twenty-four hours a day if you choose—you can utilize
the Fordson. Only so many Fordsons are allotted to this territory.
Orders are being filled in se
quence —■ first come first
served. Let us have yours
now.
There’s a practical use
for the Fordson every day
of the year. Let’s tell you.
Come in and have a tractor
talk. Give us the chance to
make a demonstration on
your own farm.
