AN I.H.C 



ENGINE 

 CLAIM 





Have you ever thought of the possibilities of ten, twenty, or more, acres 

 of dry land if you had an I. H. C. gasoline engine to pump water to irrigate it? 



The land without water is practically valueless. It can be had for a few 

 dollars per acre. 



With the land under water you can raise bumper crops of grain, potatoes 

 grass, fruits and vegetables. 



I. H. C. gasoline engines operate powerful pumping machinery. 



They enable you to reclaim waste land and to make it worth anywhere 

 from $25 to 200 per acre. 



They require but little of a man's time to care for them. For the most 

 part, the operator may go about his other irrigating or farm duties. The 

 engines, when supplied with fuel and started, practically run themselves. 



Water can always be had somewhere. The problem is to get it upon the 

 land. I. H. C. engines enable you to take water from low lying ponds, sloughs 

 or running streams and raise it so that it is available for irrigating the 

 higher lands. 



In many places farmers are irrigating from wells, or are using the under- 

 flow. I. H. C. engines enable them to pump the water where it is wanted and 

 to farm their lands at a good profit. 



Have you on your farm a piece of land that is unprofitable because you 

 cannot get the water upon it r 



Or have you your eye on a tract you would like to homestead if you could 

 irrigate it ? 



Investigate the I. H. C. gasoline engines and see how well they will solve 

 these problems for you. 



International local agents will supply you with catalogs and all particulars. 

 Or, if you prefer, write to the nearest branch house.
