    AN UNFAIR
COMPARISON BETWEEN
FORDS AND BULLS
This comparison between Ford lawn and garden tractors and bulls is designed
to put bulls in a very bad light. Unfair!
The Ford can neatl> mow down up to two acres of green grass per hour and
sweep up the clippings behind with a 41 inch lawn sweeper that hooks on behind
to give you a neat job. While the bull not only takes his sweet time eating the
grass. He doesn’t even try to clean up after himself. Unfair!
The bull stops and goes when he has a mind to and may paw up tne ground
“little when irritated while the Ford starts and stops when you turn the key on
and off and can plow a neat furrow in any man’s garden with its plow at
tachement. Unfair! , ~ . ,
Bulls are temperamental and hard to control (keep em outa china shops).
Ford tractors are fun to drive, easy to steer and are available with Hydrostatic
transmission which gives you an infinite variety of speeds forward and reverse
with a simple push and pull of a lever. Unfair!. ‘ ..
Finally, while meat prices have risen in the past year, Lancaster Ford has
actually lowered garden tractor prices!
Now, are you ready to put your bull out to pasture and come see us about that
Ford lawn and garden tractor?

seven to nine horsepower vehicle and the
man at far right is waiting his chance to
step aboard. A large crowd gathered for
the event.
Actually, both the Burkholder
and Miller pulls were stopped by
obstructions at the end of the
course. The contest involved
pulling a wooden platform on
which another person was added
at 10 foot intervals until the
vehicle stalled.
