? b • Fordsorv TRADE Farm Tractor I Win n Henry Ford set about building the Fordson tractor hr had a thorough understanding of just what it should be and what it should do. His early life on the farm gave him a deep insight into the daily life of the farmer; his mechanical genius saw the type of tractor needed. He began work on a farm tractor thirty-live years ago. and for more than twelve years he experimented over more than 7,000 acres of land in different ' , kinds of soil, with different crops. So hi built the Fordson. It is so simple that a schoolboy can operate it. It is low in first cost. It is lowest in operating cost and Fordson parts and Fordson service are always to be had promptly from the dealer. The Fordson is at profitable investment. It can be used every working day in the year. It is an inexpensive power plant that will' lighten your tarni work. It has proven its worth on more than one hundred thousand farms not fejap only in operating implements IB in the fields but in belt and pul- |jf ' *r'; ■ley work. And it doesn't eat I I n ld,c * 4' I Don’t delay ordering your ■ fordson tractor. The demand SZgStij.' is greater than the supply. * ' Shanahan - Conroy Auto Co. I ’Phone No. SO.
