"Make it Better" . . . the basic watchword of
Massey-Harris engineering was created more
than 103 years ago when Daniel Massey
founded the world-wide organization that now
bears his name. Massey-Harris survived those
humble beginnings—and expanded tremendously—because
the desire to "make it better"
resulted in new and more efficient farm machines—in
quality products that can only be
produced by better engineering and workman

IMPLEMENT DIVISION • Coming out of the implement
assembly shop these mounted tools are ready for their
brilliant coat of Massey-Harris red. Quality in
Massey-Harris extends even to the lusty color of its
products. Paint manufacturers are very much impressed
by the specifications Massey-Harris insists are
met before an order is issued. These high standards
mean higher cost to Massey-Harris, of course, but no
expense is spared in building a top-quality product
for Massey-Harris customers.
tractors, combines and implements.
In the actual production of machines themselves,
quality is positively controlled by a
systematic check of parts while being processed.
Exacting tolerances established by the
engineering specifications assure accurate fitting
of all parts. Should any deviation from
these specifications occur, an immediate check
of material, machine and operation is made.
Such methods result in uniformity of parts,
smoother operation, longer life to Massey-
Harris products.
Thanks to engineering leadership and quality
control in manufacture, Massey-Harris
customers receive an extra measure of value
and performance in every Massey-Harris machine
or implement they buy.
