Why Do We SeU International Harvester Engines?

XX^E recommend and sell International Harvester *j oil and gas engines because of the universal

satisfaction they give to our customers. The weight is ample and is in the right place; the castings are sand-cooled, insuring evenness oftexture and strength; the design of every part is of the most approved type; simple, yet complete in every detail; easy to manage, requiring little attention beyond regular oiling; devel­oping from 10 to 30 per cent more than their rated horse-power. I H C engines of all sizes make friends wherever they go.

This series of advertisements will explain fully why I H C engines are such good value. One or two features will be taken up at a time, so that when you are through with the series you will be well posted on engines. All the time these advertisements are running we shall have a demonstrating engine on the floor here, ready to show you what to expect for your money when you buy an I H C engine."
