THE ONLY REAL ECONOMY ECONOMY
THAT "PROVES OUT"
There are two kinds of ecen
omy in buying farm imple

other is real economy.
One looks mainly to first
cost; the other looks mainly
to final results.
One makes you think you
have practiced buying economy
when you pay the first cost of
an implement; the other makes
you know you practiced buy
ing economy when jou count
the profits that the use of an
implement has paid you.
One is usually false economy;
the other is alwajs the kind of
