• It is doubtful if in any other line of business the
man at the retail end renders as technically expert and
helpful service to his customers at so low a cost as does the
local Implement Dealer. This, while it has always been so, has
greater significance in these days of more highly mechanized
farming, calling as it does for training and experience in the
servicing of modern machines.
His experience with machines enables him to give time and
money -saving service in the speedy furnishing of the correct part
when repairs and replacements are required—for delays in seed-
ing, haying and harvesting may result in substantial loss to a farmer.
In those critical seasons his warehouse is open practically at all
times, and he is untiring in playing his part to prevent farmers
suffering from delays.
His accumulated knowledge of methods being used and of
the experiences of the many farmers he calls on and associates
with makes his advice helpful and valuable.
Since the early pioneering clays, through ail the
vicissitudes of farming, the Implement Dealer has
shared the hardships as well as the fortunes of farmers
rendering a worth -while service and establishing a
well-founded place for himself in our economic set-up,

reputation as claimed,
"1 cannot venture a guess at the
possible damage occasioned by poor
appearance of the crop and I believe
that this poor appearance was more

county with any punitive damages
occasioned for work in which it
