(3D CGED THEY DID IT BEF0RE- THEY CAN DO IT AGAIN With Farmall Tractor Power Throughout the Spring, from the Rockies to the Atlantic seaboard, worried farmers searched the skies for signs of clear weather, but the cold rains fell relentlessly. For more than a month the seed should have been germinating in the warm soil. Millions of acres lay implanted because the ground was too wet for preparation of the seed bed and too cold for germination of the seed. Only a generation ago there could have been but one outcome crop shortage and food scar city. Nature allows scant time for planting when the warm sun waits till late May or June before drying the soggy soil. Horses are too slow and tire too quickly to get the job done then. But the farmers remember May of 1943 only two years agowhen their fast, untiring tractors averted crop failure. Then, too, rains flooded ths fields and the month was all but pent before they could go In on the land and plant Gull from dark to dark, and longer. Many planted around the clock, working in two or three shifts. They made one of the greatest crops in history. In today's war-torn world with hunger and disease already stalking many peoples even one major crop failure could bring famine. This is why the sound of tractors and planting ma chinery was heard, day and night, from the Plains states to the Eastern seaboard why head lights stabbed the darkness over the fields. America's farmers are doing it again, in spite of an unprecedented combination of adverse cir cumstances bad weather, shortages of machines and shortages of manpower. For the second time in three years, they are relying upon their tractor-powered machines to help rescue large areas of the world from catastrophe. More of these tractors are products of International Har vester than of any other company. In 1M3, most farmers drove their tractors "SSSSnT International Harvester Coany 180 N.
