Such equipment has helped the farmer offset adverse conditions such as drouth and soil drifting, to, combat insect pests and other types of crop destroyers, and to replace manpower in times of labour shortage. The self-binder, the tractor and power farming machines, the one-way disc and the pull-type combine, each in its time has helped the farmer in making his efforts successful and profitable. Achievements in the past have been notable and,.., fruitful. Setbacks from time to time delayed but did not prevent the onward march of agriculture. And the future will bring advances in farming, too. The self-propelled combine, perfected by Massey- Harris prior to the war, has opened up new fields of possibilities in implement engineering, and other new machine developments assure that, in his efforts to further improve agriculture, there will be available to the farmer equipment that will offer greater advantages in saving time, labour and expense. Massey-Harris is proud of its long association with the farmers of Canada in promoting the welfare of agriculture. Founded and developed on the basis of helpfulness to the farmer, the implement industry is entirely dependent on the prosperity of agriculture for its own success. Through the years, the implement maker has, with quality of product and genuinely helpful service, won the high regard and goodwill of the users of his product. There are few farmers who do not value sincerely the service of the implement company. The farmer and the implement maker hove mutual interests in the welfare of agriculture and its progress towards higher standards and improved methods. Work- ing for the common cause both have contributed much to the betterment of farming in general.
