Floral Edition 



A Reliable and Economical 

 Source of Power 



AMASSEY-HARRIS ENGINE mounted on 

 Skids can be moved around to any place where 

 you need help in the way of power. 



You will be surprised to find the many uses to which 

 it can be put and the small cost as compared with 

 manual labor, not only around the farm but in the 

 dairy and kitchen, where it does so much to lighten 

 the work of the women on the farm. 



And perhaps the most interesting part of it is that an 

 Engine costs nothing in "salary" or "keep" when 

 not running. 



Our Catalogue " Farm Power " gioea many suggestions 

 for Saving Labor.
