The Ford Touring Car has brought to the
farm homes of the country more real pleasure,
comfort and convenience than perhaps any oth
er one thing.
- It h?s enabled the farmer and his family to
mingle with friends, attend church, neighbor
hood functions, and enjoy the many pleasantries
that abound in country life.
Truly the Ford car with its low cost of operation and maintenance,
its usefulness and efficiency, has been a boon to the American farmer.
Let’s taJL this matter over. Get the facts and figures.
