TRACTOR FARMING SOLVES
THE LABOR PROBLEM
Just as Liu- work of human hands has given way to the
work of machines in the manufacturing: industries of
the country, so must high priced farm labor give way
to the more efficient method of farming by machin
ery.
The ( letrac is a power plant for the farm, in addition
to plowing, harrowing, filing and seeding, it can be
turned instantly to use in haying, harvesting, road
building or hauling. In lumbering it's giant strength
ran be harness to suchtasks as log snaking or wood
r-awing. There i> no end to the jobs of belt work it
do.
?and it works equally well in hard or soft soil,
heavy or li^ht. sand or wet clav, hilly grades or level
fields.
We are always glad to prove the (.'letrac with a de
monstration right on the kind of work you will expect
it to do Get in touch with our representative
