BROS. CHALMERS Hensall, (519)262-2605 1 Good start this year for local Massey dealer The first two months have been encouraging for the farm machinery dealer in this area according to Gabby Mol, owner of Sherwood Exeter Limited, the Massey - Ferguson franchise in Exeter. Mol said this week, "1983 was a rather dissappointing sales year, but, this year should be a lot better if the first two months are any in- dication. In January and February we have done more business than we did in the last six months of 1983. Last year things were very low." He continued, "It's going to be a better year this year. I don't see it being really great, but, at least better. Farmers seem to be a little more op- timistic. They made a few dollars last year." The big factor in remaining successful according to Mol is "controlling operating costs and keeping our overhead down. Our profit margin is not g000d." Massey -Ferguson has unveiled a new 3000 series tractor ranging in horsepower from 90 to 130, Mol adds, "It's as good a line as there is on the market right now. It's the first on the market with elec- tronic three point hitch con- trol, a carryover from our 4000 serie . of four wheel drives. Massey -Ferguson tractors are available in 34 to 175 horsepower models and range in prices from $14,000 to $130,000. The company can provide anything farmers demand. In used machinery, Mol says "small tractors and other implements sell the best. Used equipment is real- ly not a local thing. A lot comes in from the United States and you have to be aware of wheelers and dealers." The local Massey Ferguson dealership has an excellent parts and service depart- ment. Mol added, "Our parts availability is good. Anything we don't have in stock can be ordered by 2 p.m. one after- noon and we will have it by 8 a.m. the next morning. Our mechanics take two weeks of in-service training each year at Massey Ferguson in Brant- ford or Toronto." Massey Ferguson 3525 Ferguson manufactured the first tractor with an automatic three-point hitch in 1948. According to Mol quite a number of these machines still exist as hobby tractors. Mol started working for the late Harry Sherwood in 1964 and assumed ownership in 1973 on the death of Sherwood. In addition to the Massey - Ferguson franchise Mol also carries lawn and garden machinery lines of Snapper, Roper and Homelite- Jacobsen and is the only ful- ly listed Exeter dealer for the Briggs -Stratton line. Mol is his own chief salesman and also helps in the service department. The local Massey -Ferguson staff includes in addition to owner Gabby Mol, parts manager Paul McKnight, mechanics Dave Holmes and Brent Blackler, part-time employees Gary Urquhart, office staff Pam Wulterkens and son John Mol, a grade 13 student at South Huron District High School who assists on weekends and dur- ing summer holidays. ,y MF M., ..' y Frrrpr.ms MF AGRI BUILDERS For all your GRAIN SU iiiAGE, DRYING and HANDL NG NEEDS our quality products include: evr�Er� GRAIN BINS PORTABLE DRYERS G51 FEED TANKS SHIVVERS J IN -BIN DRYERS We can DESIGN, SUPPLY, INSTALL and SERVICE all your grain system requirements at very competitive prices CALL TODAY MF AGRI BUILDERS C.O.
