Telephone 6-6794 1847-1947A THE AMAZING DEVELOPMENT 100 YEARS AGO, two good men with a cradle and rake could cut and bind three acres of grain in a day. Then there still remained the laborious task of threshing the grain with a flail on the barn floor. Today one man with a Massey- Harris self-propelled combine can cut and thresh up to 50 acres in a day. Just think of the tedio us, back- breaking labor in cultivating, seeding, harvesting and threshing which the farmer of today escapes through the use of modern farm machinery. The development of labor- saving farm machinery in which Massey-Harris has played a lead- ing part since 1847 has had an important bearing on our daily lives. Before 1836 the farmer pro; duced mostly for himself and his family; today he raises crops chiefly to sell. The huge increase in farm production brought about by farm machinery during the last century has been an important factor be- hind the rapid climb in the standard of living both on the farm and in the city. Today at the beginning of the second century of its history, this company looks forward to a con- tinuance of its service in helping the farmer to produce more and better crops, easier, quicker and at lower cost. 112:117-SAMIN COMPANY ILI WITE'D 1 giV .1131 447 gAna yip /IS CIF PIZOGRO, IN rAINN n km- '‘P .-----------ill•: Ph:, , lio\\,\ilt\'i------<-:40 .--- ------r„,........_ ,... if/ 4/ f. moil e ii ....i.., e A, ', Until about aso, when ban.e.ntente» machines began t• bt ,,red, grain was cut by hoed with a "(earns" g111;vairoMpor,Ar=gr- .mtatalA S yr Meessey•Hoitis No. 21 Self•Peopelied Iteesporethroiltoe nisettitie gen Y. tan bareOsliargd acreages On estCr, cheaper.
