The Improved

FORDSON TRACTOR

Agricultural and Industrial

The improved Fordson has a new engine which gives it ample. power to handle all the various farm-power jobs. Plowing, disking, harrowing-the. Fordson goes from one task to another in the work of the day. In the field or around the barn-wherever there is farm work to do there you will find work for the improved Fordson. In heat, in cold, in all sorts of weather-the improved Fordson does what is asked of it. Uses for the Fordson are as numerous as the varied jobs of the farm.

Fordson

Analysis conducted by leading industrial organizations of power costs, shows a substantial reduction with the improved Fordson tractor.

For excavating and general construction work, for road building and maintenance, for transporting supplies, tools and men, in fact, on every kind of an industrial job there is work that the Fordson can do at a big saving in time and money.

The dependability and low operating cost of Fordson on power jobs of every description makes it the most practical kind of investment.
