M.AA. WEAVER & SONS, INC. 5 0 Original Building - Business Started In 1935 Bareville, PA Mr. Henry Ford & Mr. Harry Ferguson An Historic Partnership That Has Brought a Revolution in the Production Costs of Agricultural Products Over 40 years ago. Mr Harry Ferguson began de- velopment of a new system of farming based on new and fundamentally different concepts of farm power. The tractor and implements which resulted have proved beyond all doubt that Mr. Ferguson’s concepts have brought about a revolution in farm production methods. Mr. Henry Ford saw in the Ferguson System a new and better way of farming. To help give life to the new idea, Mr. Ford applied his manufacturing genius to the principles of the Ferguson System to produce the Ford-Ferguson Tractor on an automotive produc- tion line basis. This historic partnership has made it possible to increase farm profits by lowering farm production costs and, at the same time, remove the drudgery from farm life. The advantages of Flexible Farming with the Ferguson System apply to the Raising of every kind of crop and to all types of soils; to the small farm as well as to the targe.
