Fordsoiv ** , ' HITHERTO the farmer-has woven the'power of his own muscles with thoseof the ox, the mule, and the horse, in the development of agriculture. Practical machinery for farming ha* come to him slowly. Where the value of machine r y in labor saving, in profit-making, in. comforts, in luxuries, has in the past been largely confined to the towns and the cities, it Is now open to the farmer who is beyond all question the very bone and sineWof civilization. Civilization grows upon the land, therefore tha land is Father and Mother and Sustainer to the human race, and those who till the soil, who plow, sow and reap, are surey the essentials in human existence. Therefore Machine Power on the Farm is of the utmost impor-, tance and the Fordson Tractor comes to the farmer as the best, we believe, piece of machinery that has yet been devised for his use. We want you to read the book ‘‘The Fordson at Wo r k." It is free for the asking. Call in and get one. Drop U3 a card and we will mail you one without charge. This booklet is along the line of the usual Ford way of giving the testimony of theusers, those who have tried out and who know the •*. real value of the Fo r dson Tractor. This book shows the Fordson at work in some ninety different lines of activity and to the farmer it presen s the most valuable evidence of an all-around serviceable, economical, laborsaving, and money-saving machine that has ever been placed upon the market.
