most modern farm tractor evei

three-point linkage for imple

day, January 3, 1953. at the Wil
iiamston Motor Company aeeord
ing to N. C. Green
The* new tractor, marking the
50th Anniversary Of Ford Motoi
Company, not only is more pow
erful, but larger and heavier than
the popular Model 8N which it
replaces. More than 500.000 Mod
el 8N tractors have been sold
since their production started in
1947. The over-all length of the
new tractor has been increased to
120 inches and its weight to 2.510
pounds. It is powered by the
entirely new overhead valve Ford
J "Red-Tiger" engine.
Sreamlined design gives it the
appearance of leaning ahead,
ready to go to work. It has the
familiar dawn gray and Vermil
lion red color scheme.
A new design feature is the full
view instrument cluster set in a
raised section of the hood for the
convenience of the operator. In
struments include the exclusive
Proof-Meter, ammeter, tempera
ture gauge and oil pressure gauge.
The Live-Action Hydraulic Sys
tem built into the Golden Jubilee
Model to provide mechanical mus
cles for a wide variety of work,
has been improved for greater
power and faster, more accurate
operation. Instead of the "cavi
tating" system used in previous
Ford Trtactors, the new model in
troduces a solid system complete
ly filled with oil at aii times,
which provides split-second re
sponse to controls.
The hydraulic mechanism pro

ver. features of previous Ford
Tractors that have met with wide
acceptance bv farmers. The faster
acting system allows quicker auto
matic corrections for changes in
soil conditions, for example in
plowing, and also provides quiek
| er, more positive control for other
I hydraulically controlled farm op
| orations.
The hydraulic pump itself is h
live pump driven directly from
j the engine, providing a constant
I source ol hydraulic power while
■ the engine is running without ne
cessitating tl.e engagement of the
clutch, thus eliminating many
gear shifting operations. The new
pump is simpler in design and can
be serviced without disturbing
ither parts.

A notable advancement in the
j hydraulic system is Hv-Trol.
which gives the operator a choice
' ot hydraulic operating speeds. Hy
jTrol is the key to greatly increas
ed efficiency in operating many
I mounted, tools and remote ej'lln
i der controlled tools.
Another available feature is Se
lec-Trol. A flick of the Selec
ITrol lever instantly directs the
I hydraulic power to either a front
or rear-mounted tool. This per
j nuts operation of a front-mounted
Dearborn Standard Loader and
I rear-mounted tools by the same
• handy Hydraulic Touch Control
i Lever without the necessity of
buying an extra hydraulic pump.
A convenient outlet at the top
of the hydraulic lift cover permits
mounting ol a remote control
i valve for the operation of eitliei
\ single or double acting remote
hydraulic cylinders to supply
i power to control combines, corn
pickers and other remote-control
implements.
The new Ford Tractor can be
equipped with a Live-Power Take
off attachment which permits
PTO driven implements to be op
erated continuously whether the
tractor is moving or standing
still. This eliminates much gear
shifting as well as the necessity
for dismounting from the tractor
to clear clogged corn pickers or
combines.
1 ne completely new tour-cylin
dej- overhead valve Ford “Red Ti
ger'' engine develops ample re
serve of power which brings hea
! vier farm jobs well within the
(economical wroking range of the
' tractor. It develops high torque
; necessary to start heavy loads and
1 keep going.
Costly engine friction has been
minimized by increasing the cyl
inder bore and shortening the
piston stroke This means more
power and longer engine life. Pis
tons are the autothermic type,
made of aluminum alloy and cam
ground. Dry cast alloy cylinder
I sleeves are used.
The carburetor has been recali
brated for greater efliciency
lthi*>ughout the complete range of
engine speeds. A new, higher
volume oil pump maintains elfec
. t4ve oil circulation even at low
• engine speeds. The oil filter is the
full flow type.
Increasing the wheelbase to 73
7 fl inches, coupled with the heav
ier engine, has given the Golden
Jubilee Model improved stability
and permits Ihe use of heavier
equipment. The front axle sup

ber of mounting holes for con

"We are proud to introduce this
great new powerful Golden Jubi
lee Model Ford Tractor in this
area,” said Mr. N. C. Green. “The
entirely new engine, the advanced
hydraulic system and many other
new features make it ideal for
handling a vast majority of the
•jobs found on the farms in this
area. And most important of all,
Ford’s mass production tech
niques and facilities make this
quality tractor available at a
price that’s right ”
Machine farming has boosted
the output if food and fiber, but
also the farmer’s outlay of cash.
Economists of the U. S. Depart
ment of Agriculture point out that
tie value of tractors on farms at
the beginning of this past year
was almost nine times the value
of work animals. The value of
trucks was foui times that of

His Last Address
As Head Of Stale
(Continued from Passe One)
the people, by your votes, breath
ed the breath of life into the Go
Forward Program. It has been
your program since it: inception
—the program of rural and city
people, recognizing inequalities,
and dedicated to their correction.
in developing and carrying out
any program, teamwork of the
higrest order is needed There is
no propel place ih government
foi eiiui ; temperamental star
performers or vision-lacking foot
draggers.
Mistakes have been made in
some of the mechanical or ad
ministrative aspects of our Go
Forward Program. When such
mistakes were detected, steps
were taken to eradicate them—-if
this was possible—and if not pos
sible, to reduce to a minimum the
ill effects of faulty judgment.
The lesson taught by the Par
able of the Talents, found in the
Bible, has been freely used in
putting flesh and substance on
the body of the Go-Forward Pro
gram.
These buried talents -State
funds not needed for day-to-day
operation of your government—
State funds lying idle in banks
were dug up. invested, and have
earned for you more than 1en
millions dollars in interest.
Your tax dollars were put to
work as rapidly as possible, with
efficiency and economy, to fund
the deficit in services that had
accrued during World War 11
With federal and local cooper
ation, vour state government
has, in the last four years, in
vested over three hundred and
thirty-one million dollars in per
manent improvements — greatly
needed schools, hospitals, and
administrative buildings.
We have built more roads in
the last four years than any other
State ever has in a like period
We have built both secondary
and primary roads. You have
only to look at new four-lane
expressways being built on out
most travelled highways connect
ing our larger cities, to realize
that our primary road system n
not being neglected
The State has invested ovei
four hundred thirty-million dol
lars in construction, improve
merit, and maintenance of oui
highway system and city street!
in the four years. This is mart
than ever devoted to this pur
pose in any similar period.
One hundred seventy-five mil
lion dollars of the two hundrec
million dollar secondary mac
bond money, voted by you, hai
paid for more than twelve thou
sand miles <>f paved farm-to-cit\
roads. Fourteen thousand ad
ditional miles of roads have beer
stabilized for all-weather use
The ba'ance of the secondary
road bond money remains for im
provement of additional farm-to
city roads: and already more thar
seventeen and one-half millior
dollars of the secondary mat
bonds have been paid off.
The team you put to work foul
years ago also concerned its*-1
with the public schools and thi
mental and physical health of tin
almost one million youngster:
who attend them. The buildmj
program we efhbarked upon if
the early days of the udministra
tion wil provide, when complete*
soon, eight thousand new class
rooms, one hundred seventy-fivi
gymnasiums, and three hundrec
fifty new lunchrooms.
No longei are poorly heatec
schoolhouses th • rule; and spot
lessly * clean cafeterias provide
our school children with warm
well-balanced and nutritioui
noon-day meals.
Through operation of our an
nuai appropriation of five hun
provide a state wide public schoo
health program, thousands o
chronic defects of children havt
been found, diagnosed, and cor
rected before permanent injur>
was dene.
We have not been neglectful
in providing care for the mental
ly ill, the physically handicap
ped, and our aged men arid wonv
en. Nor have we neglected thr
needs of those who live behind
prison bars.
In the over-all health and
medical care field, we have made
unprecedented progress—seventy
seven new and improved hos
pitals, with 4,40b beds, in seven
ty-three of our one hundred
counties.
All these things have been ac
complished with only one tax
rate increase-^- the une-cent-a
galon gasoline tax levied by you,
the people, to finance the two
hundred million dollar farm-to
eity road project.
And, in this connection, let me
remind you, there has been no
icw tax levied in North Carolina
>y any General Assembly, since
1933.
j Faith of the investing public
in North Carolina's government
al stability has been won and
proved. The public has bought
mote than half a billion dollars
jn stocks and bonds of companies
! (Vpandirid ‘ their ! electro, tele
i phone and gas services in Nort,h
Carolina.
Industrial development has
reached all time heights—North
Carolina sites have been select
ed for four hundred one new in
i dustrial plants with a total in
vestment of two hundred sixty
four million dollars to giye em
ployment to fortv-onc thousand
additional workers with annua!
payrolls of one hundred million
dollars. .
The Go ■ Forward Frugram
which you authorized bv electing
me as your Governor, embracing
as it does, roads, schools, health,
ports. electricity, telephones,
agricultural and industrial prog
ress. and financial stability, can
not be measured by a dollar and
cents yardstick.
It was conceived and built up
on a foundation of human needs.
Its mortar was the longing of
human hearts for the better
things of life for themselves and
(their children.
i Impetus has been given to the
religious life of the State. Sev
enty-eight percent of all church
membership in North Carolina is
in our rural churches. Today,
(these churches are alive with a
! new '•vigo(#vand inspiration*' and
I are building a rich reservoir of
(trained Christian leadership for
! rural and city areas alike. Paved
roads, telephones, and electro
, lights have revitalized them and
: made them the center of com
jmunity life in rural North Caro
] line from the seacoasi to the
; mountains
I Four years ago. there were
i those among us who feared 1h;d
we were embarking upon a spend
j mg spree t•» wniid wreck ihi
State.
The falseness of these fears and
the shadows upon which they
! were based is proved by the fact
that my successor when he
takes office will find a surplus
I in excess of forty million dollars
| in the State Treasury
As I look back upon the past
: four busy years, 1 realize anew
I the importance of the part played
bv you, the people, in making
possible the accomplishments of
the period. Your letti i s and
more than ■■5(1,000 of you have

and have kept me going forward
