The printed illustration presents the Turner Simplicity under the slogan "The Practical Farm Tractor," so the advertising pitch of simplicity and practicality is central to the image. Machines like this were marketed to farmers at a time when many still worked fields with horses and mules, and manufacturers' ads in farm papers often stressed ease of operation and low upkeep as much as raw power. Look at how the artwork frames the machine within a working farm scene, since that choice shows what sellers thought buyers wanted to see.
