Make Your Work 

 Count 



WHEN you start your 

 spring work this season 

 plowing, harrowing, roll- 

 ing, seeding, etc., you can make your 

 work easier, do it faster and better, and 

 save money besides by putting an I H C 

 tractor on the job. If your farm is 

 small, buy a small tractor, 12, IS, 20, 

 or perhaps 25-horse power; if large you 

 can use a 25, 30, 45, or 60-horse power 

 machine to advantage. An I H C 

 tractor makes your work count. With 

 it you can plow from two to ten times as 

 much ground in the same time as with a horse plow. 

 You can plow, harrow and roll at the same operation; 

 you can draw two to four drills; at harvest time you 

 can use it to draw the binders. It saves time and money 

 in every operation. Make your work count. 



Buy An I H C Oil Tractor 



Besides doing the other work at a saving, you can 

 use it also for threshing, grinding, road making, irri- 

 gating, or any other belt power and draw bar work to 

 which it is adapted. When used for all the 

 work that it will do, the I H C tractor is one 

 of the handiest machines, also one of the most 

 economical, that you can have on your farm. 



I H C tractors are made in all styles, and in 

 12, 15, 20, 25, 30, 45, and 60-horse power sizes. 

 They operate on low or high grade fuel oils. 



a 



I H C general purpose oil and gas engines, which can 

 be used to run any farm machine to which power can 

 be applied, are made in 1 to 50-horse power sizes. 

 These engines furnish the steady power required for 

 use in shop, mill and factory. They operate on gas, 

 gasoline, naphtha, kerosene, distillate, or alcohol. 



The I H C local dealer will give you catalogues of 

 I H C tractors and engines, and will give you full infor- 

 mation about the whole line, or you can secure it by 

 writing the nearest branch house.
