Steady, Alert, Power to Spare, Economical of Operation Watch a Fordson Tractor in action and you will wonder how those appar-antly contradictory qualities of strength, lightness, power and speed could ever be combined in one unit. The Fordson's speed is available for hauling heavy loads for long distances. Its power is available for dragging plows or disc-harrows through the heaviest soil or for running the cutting box, grinder or threshing machine. We take pride in handling such a compact, portable power plant.

We are equipped with every facility for giving quick service for the Fordson. KETCHERSIO MOTOR CO. Ford and Fordson Sales and Service Mr. ami Mrs. W.
