Five Years!
GUARANTEED
I FOR I
Five Years!
If you want to be insured against futuae troubles on a manure
spreader, let us show you the “Litchfield." This is only machine on h
earth giving a five year guarantee, and this is where we take the
breat h away front ail competition.
Did you ever hear of sucli a tiling as a five year guarantee on a |
manure spreader? We think not. What would the average spreader iJ
manufacturers be doing with a five year guarantee which, according I
to the record of most of these machines, would put the makers into f
bankruptcy, if they made good.
We are authorized by the Liu-htield Mfg. Co. of Waterloo. Iowa. I
to issue a guarantee for five years on their 1906 Spreader, which we g
want to show you. By this we mean we are issuing this guarantee
for five years witli the Company behind us and if you want to tie I
protected against that continual expense and annovance found in K
other machines, in the way of repairs and repair troubles, vou will g
not miss this opportunity.
This guarantee is made this year on the Litchfield Spreader tie- I
cause, from actual scientific and practical tests and experience of B
several years on these machines, it is found that thjs guarantee can
be made witli absolute safety and conservatism. We understand
: that the last year’s output of the factory lias required something
less than $20.00 wortli of repairs for the thousands of machines put i
out by them over their entire territory.
Tliis we consider a wonderful record for a manure spreader. £
Knowing it to have this kind of “backbone’’ we see no reason why j
they should hesitate to make the guarantee and assure our customers if
of absolute protection against repair troubles when buying a Litch
field Spreader.
If you will come and see this Spreader and see where it differs
from all other spreaders—look it over, compare it with other *
machines and pass your own judgement on it. you will see why this (
guarantee is possible. We beleive in talking business and when we
have a good proposition we warit our customers to know it.
In the next issue of this paper we are going to explain a
mechanical principle and we hope vou will read it.
