Facts from the field and current events
Ease of operation is one of the big features of IH C tractors. Here we have a 12-year old boy plowing on marsh land which is just about as hard plowing as you can find. The picture was taken on South Bend territory and they assure us that the boy wasn't merely posing for his picture but was actually doing the work. From the looks of his face we'll say he likes the tractor, and won't be one of the boys to leave the farm.
Garden Activity in Canada
By L. M. Larson, Regina, Sask.
Our collection department staff has taken the greater food production campaign to heart and gone in for gardening. The office staff has 42,400 square feet, and the mar¬ ried traveling collectors have 20,260 square feet, making a total of about an acre and a half. Several members of our staff are hojjing that if the weather conditions are favorable they will be able to give a potato or two as a Christmas present to their nearest friends and relatives.

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. |
