t'HELD SERVICE'
Ww'
With all the anxious watching and waiting
that precedes the ripening of a crop, the
harvest itself seems to descend with "Blitz-
_ krieg" speed.
And once on, speed is the essence of
success -for delay may be costly to the
farmer. -
�_ Heavy crops in down and tangled condi-
tion give rise to problems in harvesting
methods and equipment operations and
throw excessive strains on much worn parts
of old, reliable machines.
It is then that the farmer appreciates the
real value of farm machine service as
IMIM1"rendered by Massey -Harris.
Competent men with experience in field
problems and service that takes years
to acquire, and a system that provides
for the ready availability of parts for
any of its machines, no matter how old,
so as to avoid costly delays, are what
have earned for Massey -Harris the enviable
reputation which it has long enjoyed as -
"THE SERVICE ARM OF THE CANADIAN
FARM."

the attributes of a perfect holiday

New IHrunswick is St, Andrews -
