For Fordson Tractors are not only doing in the most economical and most efficient manner, all general field work for farmers the world over, but they are saving them time, labor and money in taking care of every power job. It combines all of the qualities—all of the ad vantages—you have wished for in a tractor. It is light; it is powerful; it is efficient; it is economical in both fuel consumption and up keep ; it is durable ; it is dependable ; and it is not extravagant in cost. It’s hard to tell you all the facts about the Fordson here. We prefer to talk to you per sonally and to show you its many advantages. We’ll gladly bring all the facts to you if you will phone or drop us a card.
