The Bnckeoye Lwdown will cut and bind every acre of cultivable land in Otago; no other machine can do this.
Every reaper and binder claims to cut and bind without assistance ou steep sidings, and there is not one of them game enough to follow our Lowdown round a stiff paddock. That Is, of course, without a man or two sitting on their cills.
The Buckeye Lowdown will take part in all the principal competitive field trials of the coming season. Owners of hilly land, secure one before It is too late.
The Buckeye Harvester Company has an agency in every important town in Canterbury; carries a large and wellselected stock of duplicates, and finds expert assistance in any case of need free. Every binder started on every buyers own farm, and every duplicate part required by the farmer supplied at from 20 to 50 per cent, less cost than the prices usually charged by other agents. The following card ia attached to our exhibit atthe New Zealand and South Seas Exhibition:—"The machinery upon this stand secured the highest award at the Melbourne Exhibition. Although in competition with specially finished machines, on which no time or money had been spared, we exhibited then as norw our ordinary stock machines, the same in every detail as supplied to farmers W„ did not resort to nickel or gilt decorations, steel knotters, special binders, or even an extra coat of paint. Our manufacturers have won their laurels honestly, preferring to meet their reputation to the special merit of the Buckeye rather than to the elaborate finishing of any one machine specially fitted up for trial show or exhibition purposes. Practical farmers can appreciate this. Agent for Canterbury JOHN ANDERSON. Canterbury Foundry, CHRISTCHURCH.
