Use
Costs
In your farm equipment you
have some implements that
you have been using for many
years
Have you ever stopped to
consider how little those im-
plements have cost you?
Only a small sum per year ! 1
Just a few cents an acre I
Think of how small the cost has '
been in comparison with the valuable
service those implements have given!
How many crops have grown from
the hundreds of acres of good seed-
beds turned by that old plow ?
Let us help you reduce your fanning costs

ested in the disabled ex-soldiers

of Good Implements
Little Pays Much
How many tons of good hay have
fallen back from the sickle bar of that
veteran mower?
If when you bought them you
had paid even three times what you
did the cost per year and per acre
would still be small and the net prof-
its they have made for you would
Still be large
We can furnish you with good
profitable implements today that will
cost you only a few cents per acre of
work
There is no other farm help that
costs so little when you consider
what they will do for you over a long
period of years
