You  Get  This  Spreader— It  Will  Pay  for  the  Auto 
Are  you  one  of  those  who  have  a  certain  amount  to  invest  and  do  not  know 
whether  to  buy  an  automobile  or  a  spreader?  Get  both! 
You  can  do  it, — if  you  get  the  New  Idea  Spreader  first.  Your  automobile  is  an  expense  from  the  minute 
you  get  it — necessary  and  very  desirable  perhaps, — but  still  an  expense.  On  the  other  hand  your  New  Idea 
Manure  Spreader  is  a  money-maker  from  the  very  start.  By  enriching  the  soil  through  proper  spreading  it 
brings  you  enough  extra  crops  to  pay  for  your  auto  or  anything  else  you  may  desire. 
Your  New  Idea  Spreader  brings  money  and  your  auto  takes  money.  That’s  the  difference.  The  auto¬ 
mobile  is  all  right.  We  haven’t  a  thing  to  say  against  it.  But  we  do  urge  that  as  a  matter  of  farm  business 
sense  you  get  the  spreader  first.  Then  you’ll  be  making  money  while  you  wait  to  buy  your  car.  The  figures 
given  below  prove  you  make  money  with  a

The  New  Idea  spreads  7  feet  wide,  covers  three  corn  rows. 
It  spreads  beyond  the  wagon  tracks  so  you  don't  have  to  drive  over 
the  spread  manure.  It  spreads  evenly ,  giving  all  the  land  an  equal 
chance.  This  is  important  because  uneven  spreading  lessens  the 
value  of  the  manure.  When  too  thick  it  burns  the  soil  and  bare 
spots  receive  no  fertilization.  Five  feed  changes  take  care  of  any 
soil  conditions. 
The  wide,  even  spreading  is  secured  by  our  patented  dis¬ 
tributor  which  sends  the  manure  whirling  in  all  directions.  Double 
cylinders  insure  thorough  pulverization  and  make  it  impossible  to
