From the success of last year's operations I take pleasure in announcing this Machine to the Farmers tor the next Harvest, and feel assured it will fully 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 change. The al terations from last year are as follows, viz : All the Journals will he Case-hardened, the SHOES, GUARDS AND GEARING, will be built of the best Salisbury Iron, and wrought iron substituted for cast in several pla ces. The Machine is made to mow lodged clo ver without obstruction, by simply removing four bolts and leaving off a part of the Irame work. With these alterations and improve ments the machine will be stronger than here j tofore, when it was the only reliable COMBINED REAPER AND MOWER made. The Machine is warranted capable of cutting from ten to fifteen acres of grass or grain per day, in a workman-like manner. N. B. Parties manufacturing Reaping or Mowing Machines, using WOOD'S PAT ENTS, are cautioned against their further use, and are hereby notified that payment will be exacted to the full extent lor the use heretofore made of them.
