Get If or SlugLre of the Profits The modern farm will be no more complete without a farm tractor than the old farm was without a horse-plow as soon as enough good tractors can be built. Millions of tractors are needed right now and the tractor which can furnish the best service at the least cost and the greatest dependability is going to be the one demanded. H. M. Leonard, production engineer and expert mechanic, built the Leonard Tractor which will be produced right here at home. He tested his tractor for more than two years under heaviest loads and worst plowing conditions. Through more than two years it did not need a single repair as testified to in the expert's report to the Jackson Commercial Club, a copy of which report we'll gladly mail you. The Leonard is now ready for building, the experimental stage having long since been passed. The site of the factory has been purchased. Patents are granted and valuable contracts obtained. Everything is ready for the production and PROFITS! The demand for tractors means profits for the owners of stock in the Leonard. Jill you be an owner? That's all up to you.
