Nights 133 was over "Consider the honor and integrity of him who makes the goods before you buy.” That was the counsel a wise man of ancient Bagdad gave to a young man who wanted to know how to get his “money’s worth.” It’s still good advice today . . . when we say “look for the John Deere trademark.” For more than 110 years farmers have sought out the John Deere name as their assurance of quality when buying farm equipment. They know that the familiar leaping deer has always labeled only farm equipment designed and con­ structed to give them the maximum service at the lowest possible cost. Today, more John Deere equipment is being sold than ever before. John Deere regards this farmer confidence as a sacred trust that is guarded; zealously in maintaining John Deere service and quality “true to tradition.” W. G.
