MONEY MAKES
THE MARE GO
Even in today's mechanical age,
this old proverb keeps cropping up --
and it still holds true. For, as farm-
ers know, procuring agricultural
equipment and keeping it running
still cost money.
Many farmers have been pleased
to learn, however, that a lack of
ready cash need not prevent them
from benefiting from the advantages
of modern, mechanized farm aids. A
farce improvement loan, from the
Bank of Montreal, has enabled them
to get their share of the new labour-
saving appliances.
If you have been postponing neces-
sary improvements to your farm, see
Mr. Robinson, local manager of the
B of M. You will find he is familial.
en with farmers' problems, and he will
be glad to discuss your pians and
financial requirements with you,
"This low-cost interest plan has
enabled thousands o¢ Canadian
i fanners to buy tine -saving ap-
pliances, electrical facilities, and
the mechanical aids that make fan
life easier and more profitable," said
Mr, Robinson. "The plan is designed
to help go-ahead farmers put bor.
rowed dollars to work for them."
