The best combined MACHINE ever invented. 4 roin the success of last vear's operations I take pleasure in announcing this Machine to the Farmers lor the next Harvest, and feel assured it will folly meet their highest expectations. It is easily managed, cuts clean and easy, is of light draft, and readily changed from a Reaper to a Mower, and vice versa, requiring not more than a minute to make the cha.'fe. The al terations from last year are as follows, viz: All the Journals will be Case-hardened, the SitOES, (:(;.\K])S A-ND EEAIiLX!', wbi built of the best Salisbury Iron, and , wrought iron substituted for cast in" several p ,i -ces. | iie Machine is made to m> w I idged clo ver without obstruction, by simply removitu'' lour holts am! leaving .>ll' i pait of the fiaine work.
