THOUSANDS MORE FARMERS WILL USE TRACTORS because The new has opened up'a g eatnewe pma sseyketarris " for fracto s One year ago, Massey -Harris introduced a new small tractor ... the "Pony" ... with a full complement of mounted tools ... to bemade in its Canadian factory ai Woodstock. Previously, all tractors used in Canada, were imported. Thus, Massey -Harris took two Important steps which are bound to play a big part in Canadian prosperity during the years ahead. The "Pony" opens up a great new market for tractors, both in Canada and in the export field. The last Canadian census showed nearly 500,000 farms still without tractors - many of which are small farms and market gardens-where<big tractor outfits are not practical. And there are a. great many more thousands of small fauns in -the United States, in Europe, in Africa, and other countries where Massey -Harris products are sold. Almost every one of them is a prospect for a "Pony". With the practical, economical "Pony" thousands more farmers will be able to use tractor power to do their work easier, quicker, and more profitably. The manufacture of the "Pony" Tractor in Canada will provide jobs in the years ahead for Canadian workers ... not only those employed in the Massey -Harris factory, but also those employed in tine industries which supply materials, parts and services. • The great and growing demand for the "Pony", from the day of its first public demon- stration, is evidence of its real need and place in Canadian and world agriculture: MASSEY-HARRIS COMPANY, LIMITED Established 1847 Winnipeg, Brandon, Regina, Saskatoon, Swift Current, Yorkton, Calgary, Edmonton, Vancouver, Toronto, Montreal, Moncton
