Winder, Barrow County, Georgia, Thursday, August 10, 1922 BIG FORD SHOW FOR ATLANTA It has just been announced that an immense exposition of industrial pow er and equipment will be held in At lanta, Ga., for three days from August '29th to Hist inclusive. According.to C. li. Jlott. local Ford dealer, this show will completely de stroy the fallacious idea that the Ford son'Tractor is for farm uste’ only. In stead it has become a tremendous pow er in the industrial field and this great exposition will show its manifold uses. Explaining further Jlr. Jlott said “by .being used for industrial purposes, I mean this latest of Henry Ford's inventions—the Fonlson tractor —is be ing used to supplant expensive steam power and horse power in building and construction work, in lumber and coal industries, etc.” “For instance a large number of manufacturers of road building equip ment observing the ‘power and flexi bility of the Fordson Tractor have built their machinery to be used only with this efficient power unit. “Jlannfaeturers of hoists and winch es got the idea and now the Fordson is used for hoisting and operating con crete mixers and other machinery used in construction work:” ’“A Southern inventor has taken the ordinary wheels off the Fordson, set the power unit in a heavy framq, put flanged wheels on it. connected them with driving rods and made a locomo tive out of it to he used in lumber, min ing and construction operations.” “This unusual feature of this expo sition is that no admittance fee is charged being free and open to the public at all times.
