I
and Preacher Furcron's fish stew went
xo well that thoy had to call for help
to serve it.

1>opular. Wyllo Dority won tho ap-. j

FORDSON
TRACTOR
$625.00 F. O. B. Detroit
Henry Ford Was Right When
He Said:
"The Tractor will enable Nthe farmer to work
fewer hours in the day, giving him more time to en
?
joy life. I believe the tractor will make farming
what it ought to be ? the most pleasant, the most
healthful, the most profitable business on earth."
This tractor has done much ? very much ? in
bringing true Mr. Ford's phophecy: t'<>r in it is a
machine which has harnessed one of the most de
pendable, efficient, adaptable, economical sources
of its power in the .world ? a machine that saves
from thirty to fifty per cent of the farmer's time ?
a machine which many farmers claim plows, har
rows or drills as much ground in the same time as
four, six or even eight horses. And more ? a ma
chine that takes care of every power job on the
farm
Call and let's talk it over, or telephone or drop
us a card and we will bring the facts to you.
