The company's business which was adversely affected by the war, its foreign trade especially, having been seriously restricted, is now showing substantial improvement. The shortage of farm labor doubtless has contributed to tha rapid growth of power farming and the demand for the company's newly designed machinery for tractor use has already assumed important proportions.
