He owned the largest corn farm in the world, about 35,000 acres down in Missouri. He devottnl his life to the pleasant study and practice of right farming, and ho succeeded mightily, for he made $4,000,000 in the business of fanning. David Rankin said: "The manure spreader is the most efficient money-maker on the place." It's warm praise to be ranked above all other farm machines, but the spreader deserves it. Soils rebel when crop after crop is taken from them, without return of fertilizer. Return every bit of manure to the soil. The IHC manure spreader will save you much disagree able hard labor, will spread evenly, and will make one ton go as far as two tons spread by hand. IHC Manure Spreaders are built to suit you, to do best work for the buyer in every case, to convince him that he has made the wisest purchase. Every detail in the construction has a purpose, for which it was made after thorough tests and experiment. They have the maximum of strength and en durance. You will find all styles and sizes in the IHC spreader line. They will cover the ground with a light or heavy coat, as you choose, but always evenly, up hill or down. There are high and low machines, with steel frames, endless or reverse aprons, but always giving best pos sible service. Tractive power is assured by position of the rear wheels well under the box, carrying nearly three-fourths of the load. Study the IHC spreader line at the local "dealer's.
