JUST YOU AjSTD AN AVERY TRACTOR! > Rib your farm yourself, Mr Farmerenlist tho services of an Avery Tractor. It makes possible the ono-m.in farm; it enables you to " carry on " despite the shortage of farm labour. Let us take, for example, tha 8-16 h.p. Avery. With it ' you can do the work of two men driving four-horse teams. You can work without ceasing, too. Avery requires no "spelloh," and demands no overtime pay. Ifc is . useful in the four seasons—it discs, "ploughs, harrow?, packs drills, harvests, thrashes,' t e d hauls crops anywhere. Then you can tse the Avery Tractor as a power plant— . for work that horses can't do. 'Twill drive a saw, milking plant, shearing machines, chaffcutter, wire-stretcher: its sphero of . usefulnes is very -wide. And what is the cost of all this? Does the Avery cost as - much to maintain as the two four-horse t-ean.s? No ; all it requires is kerosene for fuel—and kerosene is cheap. Loss trouble than horsee, less expensive to keep - and the Avery won't die of old age! There's a liandy size for every size farm. Each model will quickly repay its original cost by ihe earing it will make on men's wages and h6rses' feed. Farmers should remember that the Government will assist tnem to buy tractors; full details can be obtained from the Department of Agriculture. A 12-25 Avery, Model W, has just been delivered to Hon. Mac Donald, Minister of Agriculture,, for use on his own farm. Ck'I —write—get nartioulairs. A. HATRICK & CO.
