Sprague to Discuss Poultry Housing
New speed... New muscle
John Deere
50 Side-Mounted Mower
The 1,800 strokes-per-minute cutting speed of the John Deere 50 Side-
Mounted Mower really drops hay in a hurry. The 50 is strong, too. Parts
are considerably heavier than those in other side-mounted
mowers. The pitmanless balanced drive keeps the mower
running smoothly . . . quietly. You’ll find the 50 an easy
mower to maintain, too. See us for details on this addition
to The Long Green Line. Ask about our Credit Plan. SBP'
