WHEN IN DECORAH, IOWA, LOOK UP
REED & LENNON
By B. M, Angle, Advertising Department, Dubuque, Iowa
When in Decorah, Iowa, you should call on Reed & Lennon, because you will find a firm which practices the most modern business principles and which will be able to recite interesting adventures of sales.
W. B. Reed lives in the same town in which he was born, which is proof that he considers Iowa the best state in the Union, and Decorah the best town in that state. This is the spirit which, possessed by the citizens of any community, wins for that locality renown and fame abroad. Mr. Lennon also is still in his home county and has shared his life between the farming, and hardware and implement selling professions — two voca¬ tions most important from the standpoint of the wel¬ fare of the people.
One of the most important events in the history of Decorah for some time was the dedication of the Aase Haugen home for old people, and it was only natural that the important firm of Reed & Lennon should con¬ tribute something to the success of the institution. As a matter of fact. Reed & Lennon sold the home the engine for furnishing the premises with light and water and also supplied other machinery for the building.
Photographs are shown on this page of the Reed & Lennon establishment, of the great dedication, and of the International engine which was sold.
A SKILLERN DELIVERY
By A. E. WOMBLE, Advertising Department, Little Rock, Ark.
Published on this page is a photograph of a delivery of power machines by A. L. Skillern, IHC dealer at Nashville, Arkansas. Dealer Skillern handles practically the whole International line and sells a great number of machines and a large quantity of twine. A. L. Skillern is a live dealer and always stands in readiness to co-operate with this Comiiany in the use of any of its helps for increasing sales.
Mr. Skillern has made our salesman, Harry Hill, quite famous in that part of the country by featuring him in catchy stories in the local paper. Mr. Hill is shown in the picture standing on the engine at the extreme right. The purchasers of the 8-16 Mogul and the power press may be seen sitting on their machines. IHC Blockman Walter Casey is standing just left of the center door with his hands folded as if he were asleep. If he is, it is the first time on record.

| Description | Harvester World magazine was first published by International Harvester Company in October of 1909. From 1909 to 1946, Harvester World functioned primarily as an employee magazine, carrying news from various factories, branch houses and dealerships around the world. The magazine included biographical sketches of employees; notices of retirements and promotions; announcements regarding new company initiatives or building projects; and a variety of other news relating to nearly every facet of the company’s world wide operations. The magazine was published by the company’s Advertising Department, and also functioned as a way for headquarters to communicate with dealerships. In 1946, the magazine was redesigned and eventually shifted from an employee magazine to a more customer-oriented focus. By the 1950s, most Harvester Articles were human interest stories centering on the people and organizations who used International Harvester products. At the same time, photography became an increasingly important element in the content and presentation of the magazine. The magazine was discontinued in 1969. |
