A name, proved over the years, can certify to an especially high type of performance. A name can stand for productive ability that has changed the course of human history. A name can be representative of enlightened scientific research to create new prosperity and Jbetter living. If ever a name in business has come to mean all of these things, that name is "Ford." It has held the confidence of three generations of Americans and, particularly, of America's farmers. To farmers, too, the Ford name is a reminder of millions of research dollars, such as those invested in the exploration of soybean possibilities, which opened huge new markets for this cash crop and pointed the way to vastly widened uses for many other farm products. The name "Ford" on a tractor today has a meaning even beyond all this. It means manufacturing skill and volume production resources unique in the farm equipment fields It means engineering leadership constantly keeping ahead with such new developments as the Ford'Tractor "Proof-Meter." It is backed by good service and assurance that parts will be available. It means low price and a generous measure of extra value for that price.
