HARVESTING 



MACHINE 



Your success in the busy har- 

 vest season, when everything should 

 be just right, depends chiefly on your 

 harvesting machines. If they are not 

 'in perfect working order to handle the grain, 

 you lose part or most of your crop part or 

 ' most of your profit. Grain goes to waste instead 

 fof being turned into golden dollars. 



Almost at your elbow is your choice of six de- 



Fendable Harvesting Machines, each bearing the 

 H C trade mark.

After you have worked hard all spring and 

 summer, why take chances why risk a machine 

 that may not work perfectly. If your machines 

 gave trouble last season, or if you have the slightest 

 doubt of their capacity to go through the harvest 

 without delays, now is the time to figure on new 

 machines machines that are right. And there is 

 no need to take chances on new machines. You 

 can easily make sure of perfect service and abso- 

 lute satisfaction. 



I H C harvesting machines, the products of 

 American inventive genius and the result of many 

 years of experience, represent mechanical perfec- 

 tion. Millions of farmers throughout the world 

 have found them most dependable have 

 found that they harvest all the grain 

 quickly and thoroughly, whether 

 it is lodged, tangled, or down, 

 short or tall whether the land 

 is hilly or level, or whether any 

 other trying conditions are en- 

 countered.

 farm, and then distribute the information. Your in- 

 dividual experience may help others. Send your prob- 

 lems to the I H C Service Bureau. 



The superiorly of I H C har- 

 vesting machines is due to the all- 

 round perfection of design, materials, 

 workmanship used in their construction. 

 The substantial main frame, large main 

 wheel, spacious elevator, wide range of reel 

 adjustment, easily accessible bearings, accurate 

 knotter, efficient binding attachment, perfect

 world the I H C line.

 ciency is unquestioned. Millions of farmers depend

Certainly the price should not deter you from 

 purchasing a new machine. Did you ever compare 

 the cost of a binder, pound for pound, with that 

 of a stove? An ordinary cast iron stove fit only to 

 hold fire will cost from 10 to 15 cents per pound. 

 I*ut this beside a grain binder embodying the best 

 thought of three-quarters of a century of inventive 

 progress. Every part is accurately constructed of 

 the best material that nature gives. Every part of 

 the machine is thoroughly tested, and the whole is 

 so put together that every part, even when roughly 

 used, works with unerring precision. For this kind 

 of an article made up of many different working 

 parts, a farmer is required to pay [only about haif 

 the price per pound he would pay for a common 

 place kitchen cook stove.
