MONEY 
TO GROW 
WHEAT 
Uncle Sam is asking New York State 
farmers to help him grow more wheat— 
the Aworld’s greatest breadstuff. If you’re 
hesitating because of lack of ready funds, 
we can help you. 
We will loan, on approved 6% notes, any 
sum needed up to $10 an acre for seeding 
wheat ground. No signature but your 
own will be required. You can use the 
money to buy seed and fertilizer and to 
pay for labor and equipment. 
The earlier you start, the better the crop 
will probably be; so write us at once. 
Tell us how many acres you intend to 
plant and how much you will need. 
We also loan money to purchase Hogs 
and Sheep.

Next Year’s 
Wheat Crop 
Uncle Sam is calling for a bigger- 
than-ever wheat crop for 1919. 
Your answer will depend much 
upon the Avay that you fit your 
Avheat ground this Fall. Make the 
seed-bed right. Reduce winter-killing and increase the yield by using the 
“Acme” Pulverizing Harrow 
Three times over with the fast-working “ACME” will put almost auy soil 
into tip-top condition. The Superintendent of the Cornell Agricultural 
College Farm has used three “ACMES” for years, lie says: “They are 
most effieient tools where an e.xceptionally tine .seed bed is ri'iiuired.” 
Our No. 26, cutting 8 ft. 6 in., will cover a big acreage without lugging 
th(' team. Other sizes: 1-horse to 4-horse ; e.xteusiou models for the orchard. 
.Ask your dealer to show you the “ACME” hue. If he 
can’t supply you, we will ship you direct. Send today for 
this new Catalog and latest price list.
