MASSEY NEWS

Journal Massey-Harris-Ferguson was a French tabloid-size newspaper produced in France. Notice how this October 1955 issue shows the MHF logo as the newly formed company still wrestled with maintaining a two-line Ferguson and Massey-Harris policy. This issue contained a world map showing the principal company offices and manufacturing facilities around the world, as well as its machines being used in 142 countries. There was a high content of international news reporting on both Massey-Harris and Ferguson products.

Farm Profitwas a magazine produced in the US by Massey Ferguson. It was mainly a financially oriented farm enterprise/farm business reporter aimed at encouraging farmers to think in a more businesslike manner about their enterprises. There were different issues for the various regions of the US, and they included weather forecasts and home pages. The magazine was started by Massey-Harris but continued by Massey Ferguson.
