F or dson TRADE MARK '•here arc many Tractors clamoring (or the patronage of the farmer. The very air is charged with the noise of claims. One would think that all the farmci had to do was to buy a Tractor and he would enter into the Nlillennium. Well, consider this fact—there are a great many different makes of Tractors. Tractors have been on the American market for twenty years. In that time some three hundred thousand Tractors have been sold to the iarmers in the I nited States. The Fonlsou Tractor has only been on the market two years, au l in that time more than one hundred thousand Fordson Tractors have been sold to the iarmers of the United States. Iwo and two make four. Two and two always will make four. If the Fordson Tractor had not delivered more good work, more satisfactory work, more economical work, than any other farm Tractor, it would not have sohl in the ratio of anywhere from five and more to one. “The proof of the pudding is in the eating.” The proof of the superior merits of the Fordson Tractor is in its larger sale and use. The Fordson Tractor then asks you to buy itbecause of what it has done for your neighbor. It asks you to buy it on its merits. It asks you to buy it. Mr. Fainter, because you have use for it every day in the year. All the uses for the Fordson Tractor have not yet been uncovered because new places where macliine power can take the place of human power, where machine power can supplant horse ind mule-power, are being found every week, and wherever such discovery occurs, the Fordson Tractor will fill the bill more satisfactorily than any other form of power. The Fordson is simple in design, and it is very strongly made of the highest quality of iron and steel. It is the product o f f the greatest mechanical genius the world has ever known, and it is most economical in first cost and after expense. The Fordson Tractor on your farm will increase the value of every foot of ground in that farm. It will put more dollars ami cents into every hour you put into the farm. Now why not have a FordM»n right away? Take up the subject with us. Come in and get the details, and ail the particulars. It is only a matter of time until you buy a farm Tractor—that 19 sure. So don’t put it off when it means money to you to act promptly. Rudd Motor Co. H. D. McKesson, Mgr.
