NEV ER A COMPANY EVERY CANADIAN MAY WELL BE PROUD OF from _tiny Bigihnings on an Ontario farm ninety years ago, Massey- Harris has grown steadily, until now it is the largest maker of farm implements in the British Empire, Keeping pace with and helping onward . Canadian agriculture, it has also, since the Eighteen Eighties, spread out to most lands beyond the seas. Romance fills the years and experiences of the Company In Tn ed its ventures abroad, A Canadian company with Canadian headquarters, it is today as solidly entrenched in the business of .a score' of other countries as it is in its native land. Transacting business in 52 countries in addition to Canada, in the languages and currencies of these various countries 'is as fascl- nating us it is profitable. For while the exigencies of crops and conditions 'may vary the Company's fortune in these lands, yet it is a fact, that in * the years from 1928 to. 1937, because of this export business, Massey- Harris spent, in Canada $21,261,763 more than the total revenue from its sales in Canada. Surely a valuable asset to our country and a Conadian achievement of which we may «ll be justly proud. A SETS: A "Many Happy | Returns" and how to enjoy them.
