'"IP HE BUCKEYE AHEAD. FIRST TEIAL OF THE SEASON, The first trial of the season was held on Monday afternoon on Mr James Smellie's farm, North Taieri, when the Lowdown Buckeye was set to negotiate a heavy crop of green oats sown down with rye. Having yoked up a pair of Mr Smellie's well known draughts, Mr Perceval (the expert in charge) started on a preliminary round, followed by several well known Taieri farmers, each of
whom watched its performance narrowly. Its cutting, elevating, and binding was greatly admired, and, although such a crop wa_ naturally heavy to cut and difficult to handle, two horses worked the machine all through without the slightest sign of fatigue. Every, farmer present expressed surprise at the faultless quality of work done, many of them saying that it effectually disposed of the assertions of some of its competitors that the Lowdown was at a disadvantage except on hillside ground. Two years ago the hillside capabilities of the Lowdown Buckeye were pooh-poohed by agents who have since been obliged by its performances to concede to all we olaim, and to take a very back seat in this department of harvesting. Hence as a last resort their assertion that the heavy typical crops on fche Plains would prove too much for it. and hence our selection of the earliest, greenest, and most difficult orop we could find for the purpose of demonstrating the correctness of the judges' decision at Melbourne Exhibition, Jamestown (S.A.), and the Victorian. Grand National, and the Lowdown Buckeye was undoubtedly the machine of the age. Soveral well-known farmers having taken turn after turn without missing a sheaf or delivering a single indifferently shaped bundle, Ub construction was explained, and its simplicity created general astonishment, A testimonial certifying lightness of draught, ease of management, perfect work ami delivery, was signed by Messrs Smellie, Charters, Haggen, Williamson, Smith, Morgan, and others, the latter purchasing the machine. Another trial will be held at Blenheim on a crop said to be the most difficult in the province of Marlborough. Every farmer should own a Buckeye, which will enable him to crop every ploughable acre on his estate. Agents and duplicates everywhere, G. INGRAM, Spring Grove.
