THE FARM LABOR PROBLEM SOLVED The demand of the farmer for a light, serviceable farm tractor at a low price has at last been met. The FORD does the farmer's work better, quicker and cheaper than horses can do it. The FORD pulls plows, drills, dises, harrows, mowers, binders, seeders, manure spreaders, drags, wagons and small road graders; it op- erates ensilage cutter and silo filler, feed grinder, water pump, circular saw and other belt-driven machines used on the farm. It is designed for strength, power and durability. It performs all classes of practical farm work, Every farmer needs a FORD. Every farmer, farming forty acres or more, realizes the need for a good, strong, serviceable tractor that will do the work, and that is constructed of strong material and is of such simple design that it is not continally getting out of order. THE FORD TRACTOR is built and designed to meet every requirement of the average farmer. SIMPLE, POWERFUL, EASILY HANDLED, RELIABLE THE FORD TRACTOR sells for $495 f. 0. b. fac- tory. It is the lowest priced tractor for general farm use. It is in successful operation in thirty-seven States and in several foreign countries. The demand is in- creasing daily. The unfilled orders, on which deposits have been made, now on the books of the company will keep the factory running night and day for months to come. After eighteen months of practical use on the farms of America, the FORD has proved so successful that a new modern factory has been built and leased to the Company for a period of years, and already, while the Company has only been in the new building about one month, the demand for THE FORD TRACTOR is so great that an extension to the factory is already being planned. The plant of THE FORD TRACTOR COMPANY, Inc., is located in Minneapolis, Minn., the center of the great Northwest agricultural district and the home of the farm tractor industry in America. Minneapolis is to the farm tractor what Detroit is to the automobile In our opinion, THE FORD TRACTOR occupies the same relative position that the low price automo- bile has occupied in the automobile industry. In other words, the big demand for farm tractors is, and must always be, for the low price tractor. Certain patents owned by this Company, inventions of Mr. Paul B. Ford, are such as to make it impossible, in our opinion, for any other manufacturer to turn out the same de- pendable, low cost farm tractor without paying royalty to THE FORD TRACTOR COMPANY, Inc. We have in our office an illustrated folder giving full specifications and particulars regarding THE FORD TRACTOR, a copy of which will be readily mailed im- mediately upon request. SALES ORGANIZATION The agency organization of THE FORD TRAC- TOR COMPANY now numbers over Two Hundred established dealers or agents located throughout some of the best farming country in the United States. These agents keep on hand or at a nearby farm one or more farm tractors which they exhibit or demonstrate as often as occasion requires. The combined selling ability of a large agency organization properly trained and equipped can scarcely be overestimated as to its far reaching re- sults, These dealers are today selling more tractors than the Company can deliver. The added capital which this Company will receive from the underwriters will enable the Company to increase its manufacturing facilities. Dealers seeking THE FORD TRACTOR AGENCY should communicate with us at once f the tractor, e proof of the fnet moon the farm tHleulars, tory, L might be willing to invest Name Street ony State come and be my friend|patd that money back acquirement, | joverything for its NDBERG CO.

MOTOR PROFITS We believe that the motor vehicle has made more money for the small investor, from a small investment, than any other in dustry in America during the past ten years, The success of tne automobile has made a new crop of millionaires; fortunes have grown from trifling amounts; cities have been built, and the com- plexion of States changed as a result of the motor vehicle indus try. Probably no other invention ever afforded the profit that has been made out of the motor vehicle industry. And no othe industry today Is making greater profits for the actual cash cap- Ital invested. These profits have run all the way from 10% per annum to 1,000% per annum on the investment. In fact. more than 1,000 per annum has been earned by some of the low-price automobile manufacturers. There are three distinct branches of the motor vehicle indus try—the automobile for pleasure purposes, the truck for commer al purpo' and the tractor for farm purpose THE ONE BIG MONEY-MAKING OPPORTUN- ITY IN THE MOTOR VEHICLE INDUSTRY TODAY 's, In our opinion in THE FARM TRACTOR FIELD. The leader in the low price farm tractor is THE FORD TRACTOR, manu- factured by THE FORD TRACTOR COMBANY, of Minneapolin, Right now you can secure an interest in that Company on that seems certain to insure tremendous profits. ORGANIZATION THE FORD TRACTOR COMPANY is incorporated under the laws of Delaware, with a capital stock of $10,000,000, divided into 100,000 shares of 7°. preferred stock and 900,000 sha of com- on stock. Each share has a par value of $10, fully paid and non. aesessabie, OFFICERS AND DIRECTORS W. BAER EWING, President and General Manager. HON. CHARLES B.

OFFICES AND PLANT About a month ago the Company moved into a new two-story building, with every modern facility, located at Madison St. and 17th Ave. N. E., In the City of Minneapolis, Minn. The present factory has now an output capacity of twenty (20) FORD tractors per day. Additional factory facilities will be provided as rap- idly as possible. THE PRODUCT THE FORD selis for $495. It is the lowest priced tractor je for general farm purposes. The profit at this price is suffi- nt to show an earning of about 33 1-3¢% on the par value of the entire common stock, with a production of only 25,000 tractors per annum This farm tractor has proven its work rapidly and to accomplish it in by horse plow; to save in cost of labor, ing machinery on any part of the farm. According to the WALL STREET JOURNAL, “there are in the United States alone over 2,700,000 farms, on which the present models of tractors can be economically used.” In addition to this, that Journal points out that “the American tractor has already found a good field in Europe,” and it is believed that after the war ability to do heavy farm jon; to plow deeper than nd to be utilized for driv- changes in European farm methods will be revolutionized and wil! call for an immense supply of American-made farm tractors. IN WAR OR PEACE THE SOIL MUST BE TILLED An agent of the French Government, after investigating the farm tractor fleid from stem to stern, has placed an ini- tial order for Fifty FORD TRACTORS, and has made the pub- lic announcement that this order was not for war purposes, but that these tractors would be used to till the soil after peace has been declared. In fact, serious-minded men have taken the placing of this order as a forerunner of peace, and Europe, short in men, and more short in horses, must of necessity look to the farm tractor for the power with which to till the soil. So, in buying stock today in THE FORD TRACTOR COM. PANY, you are getting In on a ground floor basis, with the low-priced tractor builder in America, with an opportunity not only to make money out of tractors that must be used on the millions of farms in the United States, but with the type of tractor that all Europe must turn to when peace h been declared, We honestly believe that THE FORD TRACTOR COM PANY offers the greatest money-making opportunity of the age.

Baer Ewing, President of THE FORD TRACTOR COMPANY, Which tells of the early development of THE FORD FARM TRACTOR, the present production facilities, the plans of the Company, and esti- mated profits on future production: — “Minneapolis, Minn., Nov. 22, 1916. “Messrs. Robert P. Matches & Co., 1834 Broadway, New York, N.Y “Gentiemen: During the latter part of 1912 my attention was called to the insistent demand of farms for a light, serviceable farm tractor, and in 1914 | began devoting my time and energy to the development of a farm tractor, light in weight, serviceable to a high degree, and that could be supplied to the farmer at a reasonable price. On March 15th, 1915, | incorporated THE FORD TRACTOR COMPANY, and on July 20th, 1915, we sold and de- livered the first FORD TRACTOR that was ever put out in a commercial way. Our first tractor still in constant use and Giving satisfaction in every respect. Since the first tractor was shipped we have manufactured hundreds and hundreds more, all of which have been sold and delivered, and are in ui in 37 States of the United States; and in addition to that we have sold and shipped FORD TRACTORS into Canada, England and Porto Rico, with large orders from other foreign countries pend ing “In our first year of commercial activity we have earned 100% on our original invested capital. “AS our tractors have been in the hands of farmers and In actual use for more than a year, we have demonstrated beyond the shadow of a doubt their high degree of efficiency and gen- eral practicability. In order to meet the continually growing demand for our tractor, we have come to your Banking House for the capital necessary to enlarge our facilities for turning out FORD TRACTORS on a large scale. “We are now located in our new factory, which is of the most modern type, and so constructed that additions may be added from time to time. Our present output capacity is twenty FORD TRACTORS each twenty-four hours, but with the ste: idily increasing demand for our product, | anticipate the early neces- sity for added factory space. As you know, ‘THE FORD?’ is the lowest priced serviceable farm tractor on the market, which largely accounts for its wide popularity. Our present produc- tion is limited only by our capital. With the funds which your house proposes to furnish us, we will, in my judgment, be adle to manufacture and sell at least 25,000 tractors per annum, at a net profit of $3,009,000 per year. This would indicate an earning approximately 33 1-3°% on our total issue of common stock at its full par value. We have in these figures provided for a ‘safety fund’ of ten dollars on each tractor turned out, to be used for contingencies or working surplus. ans moe mm be “| may add that we are located right in the Heart of the Great Northwest, the richest farming district in the world. Our manufacturing and shipping facilities are second to none, and | would suggest, wherever possible, that you send investors right out to our factory, where the can see just what we are doing and satisfy themselves as to the large, permanent, Profitable in- dustry wherein they may participate. “Our busine: open to inspection at all times, and we solicit opportunities to show investors the details of the same. and to demonstrate and verify the correctness of all statements made.
