A COMPANY EVERY CANADIAN
MAY WELL BE PROUD OF
From tiny beginnings on an Ontario farm ninety years ago, Massey -
Harris has grown steadily, until now it is the largest maker of farm
implements in the British Empire.
Keeping pace with and helping onward Canadian agriculture,
it has also, since the Eighteen Eighties, spread out to most lands beyond
the seas. Romance fills the years and experiences of the Company in
its ventures abroad. A Canadian company with Canadian headquarters,
it is today as solidly entrenched in the business of a score of other
countries as it is in its native land.
Transacting business in 52 countries in addition to Canada,. in
the languages and currencies of these various countries is as fusel•
noting as itis profitable. For while the exigencies of crops and conditions
may vary the Company's fortune in those lands, yet it is a fact, that in
the years from 1928 to 1937, because of this export business, Massey -
Harris spent, in Canada $21,261,763 more than the total revenue from
its sales in Canada. Surely a valuable asset to our country and a.
Canadian achievement of which we may all be justly proud.
