Put it to any
Power Task
While the Fordson Tractor has power
in plenty to drag plows and harrows
through the heaviest soil, it is light
enough, small enough and so easily
controlled that it can handily be put to
many tasks about the farm, that will
save you time, money and work.
In fact the Fordson will do every power
job, both draw-bar and belt, more quick
ly and at less cost than it can be done
with any other form of power. So every
month the whole year ’round the always
dependable Fordson will prove itself a
paying investment, because of its capa
bilities, its economy and efficiency.
W e will gladly explain and demonstrate
to you the many Fordson money-mak
ing, time-saving features. Call, write
or phone.
