What It Means to Farm with Farmalls The Farmall owner with his ready supply of ample power waits until the soil is ready to work up right. The result is better seedbeds and better yields actually with less time and expense because the soil is right to work. The Farmall is ready to go full-tilt from the very start of spring work—it needs no breaking in—never gets sore shoulders. If the season is late the tractor can be worked overtime to get the seedbeds ready. And how it eats up the work! It travels at fast working speeds and pulls large machines. It makes any man twice a man by multiplying the work he can do. A boy in his 'teens is as good as a veteran when he rides a Farmall. Therefore, the Farmall owner actually hurries less and worries less. Unless he's a born worrier he worries not at all—he knows his plantings will be in the ground in good lime. In the cultivating season the Farmall gets through the crops so quick that there is plenty of time to cultivate as often as the crops need it. When the hay crop is ready the Farmall enables its owner to hop right in and get the hay in mow or stack just when the feed quality Illust. 1.

Notice the adjustable radiator shutter which is now included with regular equipment. is highest. In fact, from year's end to year's end the Farmall owner is able to get all his work done in proper season. There is another satisfaction which Farmall owners have—right from the beginning of their ownership. They know that the Farmall is the one tractor that really has an established reputation for handy, ample, and economical power over a long period. Farmalls ten years and more old are still going strong. Still another advantage of Farmall ownership is the number of field-proved implements made for direct attachment to the Farmall. No other line has behind it such a wide range of all-purpose tractor and machine experience. The Farmall owner actually has more time to live. Of the 25 years which the average farmer spends in actual farm work, the man who farms with horses works 11 years, while the man farming the same acreage with the Farmall works 31 years. Some Farmall owners use their extra time to farm more land, and some use it to get greater enjoyment just out of living. However they use it, their lives are richer through Farmall ownership.

The rear wheels are reversible and the tire rims can be set in different positions on the wheel center to give rear wheel treads of 68 to 96 inches in 4-inch intervals. The McCormick-Deering FARMALL is the Original, Successful, Row-Crop, All-Purpose Tractor More than 300,000 Farmalls are on farms. There is only one way to account for such a figure—ever since the first Farmall was sold early in 1924, farmers have been choosing Farmalls on the strength of what they have heard and seen of Farmall performance on their neighbors' farms. In other words, the Farmall has an established record for easy handling, adaptability to all kinds of farm work, and unusual stamina. There are Farmalls working today that have been working more years than any other make of all-purpose tractor is old. Farmalls put out in 1924 are to be seen working side by side with new Farmalls. Of course the new Farmall 20 is pulling heavier loads—doing more work. It has a good 30 per cent more power than the original and it has been improved and refined in other ways—has an additional plowing speed, variable-speed governor, automatic-impulse magneto coupling, adjustable radiator shutter for more efficient use of tractor distillate or other low-priced fuel, large composition steering wheel, etc. Eight years of intensive study by numerous Harvester engineers—eight years of continuous experimenting, building, trying out, rejecting, starting over —went into the building of the first Farmall and the machines for use with it before ever a Farmall was offered for sale—eight years' start in designing this type of tractor and equipment! Since it was introduced, improvements have been made as experience has dictated, power added to give the Farmall purchaser more and more for his money. But in one way it is the same Farmall, and that is in its staying qualities—its ability to last for long years of dependable, economical, satisfactory service. Illust. 3.
