AVERY TRACTORS
TRACTOR COMPANY'S SQUARE
DEAL POLICY AGAIN TO
THE FRONT

According to the Avery Dealer in
this territory, Johnson, Erickson Mo-
tor Co., the Avery Company have an
nounced that they are protecting all
purchasers of Avery machinery ag-
ainst any decline in prices to May /,
1921, and in a bulletin just received
from the factory, they authorize John
son, Erickson Motor Co. to make this
announcement, that if any one buys
any Avery machine before that date
and the prices decline, the purchaser
will be refunded the difference
This, according to Johnson. Ers
ickson Motor Co., ''is one Of the most
progressive of the many advanced
steps that the Avery Company have
made from time to time in order to
assure the farmer square deal. The
Avery policy is "A Good Machine and
Square Deal" and they have never
left anything undOne that would not
give the farmer this square deal. This
guarantee against reduced prices with
refund of the difference in case of a
possible decline, means the time to
buy is now. 1921 is going to be a year
when big crops will mean much in
bringing about a settlement of the
| yet unsettled conditions. The Avery
Company realize this, and knowing
that many farmers hesitate to buy on
! account of present prices, they have
! made this guarantee which works two
ways, and both to the benefit of the
! farmer. 1t assures him that his wise
! course is to buy now, and this in turn
assures him bigger crops for 1921, on
| account of his motorized farm, and if
it is at all possible to do so, the
Avery Company will not hesitate to
| reduce prices, and refund the differ
ence to the purchaser
There is not anything as far as we
can see that could be more fair than
this and this plan has our co-opera-
ton. The farmer who looks at this
| in business way will see that the
| money spent to buy a tractor is the
! best investment he can make, and he
is also protected against decline for
period OF over seven months.
Part OF the bulletin that we have
received from the factory authoriz-
ing us to make this announcement
reads as follows: There are two
things which can lower prices before
these dates-they are lower raw ma
| terial costs and lower labor costs. We
| want you to let your customers know
! that we are looking out for their in
terests, and if either of these two fac
tors lower SO that we can lower our
prices, we will do so, and refund the
purchasers the difference"
This guarantee covers the Avery
Line of tractors, motor cultivators and
motor trucks you are protected to
May l. On separator purchase you
are protected to August 1st 1921.
I'm our eyes there is nothing that
could be more fair or more assuring
to the farmer than this, for he stands
to lose nothing by purchasing his mo-
| tor farming machinery now, but on
the other hand he stands to win larg-
err crops and a refund if a decline in
prices takes place. ADV.
