ALWAYS AHEAD. Buckeye to tbe Front* NEW CATALOGUE NOW READY, TWINB DUTY ABOLISHED. We land onr stook on the lowett poisible freights, and we offer pnrchaiert every inducement. We shall exhibit at all the .leading shows, *nd all agenta will havo machines on hand for impeofcion and sale. For many ytara we have held the Greenfield trade against all comers, and many a machine hat been senb to that station to try its hand against our Lowdown, and has left its bones blenching on the hillside as a monument to its temerity. Where there ia hard work to be done on steep «dling», where draught and la' oral strain have to be coped w.tb, our Lowdown is the only machine capable of working with bodily safety to the driver aud team. The right hand out Lowdown we do not need to reckon as a competitor or iay anything about. The claims of oome makers that they can out and bind on any sidling where the Buckeye Lowdown sails along are two ridiculous to combat. Any man who it not sntirdy blind sees at a glance th»t all the top hamper of elevator machines musb ensure a capsize on the hillsides ; and how the open rear machines propose to keep the grain from streaming through the back of the elevator when ascending a steep rise is a question easy to ask but hard to answer. Of the elevator machines, for balance on the sidling, our own framoless machine U the best. Still, it is fair to say that agriculturalists cropping rough, hilly country will be dieappoiutfcd in the work of any elevator— our own or other makers'— and their remedy is a Londown, which is built essentially for this clus of work. s Our Frameleaa elevator is not an " all steel" machine, but a judicious combination of steel, iron, and wood. It has fewer wearing parts than any other, with greater strength and durability, and works on easier draught. We [do not clsim fobs as good as any other— & point one of our competitors endeavours to make in his ndvfc. — nor do we claim that any man owning a Buckeye is guaranteed against drought, murrain on stock, umut in wheat, or other barritr to the perpetual happiness the ownership ot another machine is Biud to ensure ; but we claim to be dihtincfcly and in detail "always ahead*." We say that tbe use of a' Buckeye machine stamps one us a man of intelligence, and one who knows what economy and tfficienoy means. We build our *levalo:s 60in de*p, and carefully guide the swatti from the paddock to the sheaf-carrier. There is no trailing of crop from the Buckeye eleva^r, and no waste of grain. We deliver a wtll-packed sheaf, nicely balanced and square butted, with the minimum of di-au,li!i and wear aud-lear of machinery. Th's wa understand to be the perfection of practical harvesting, and as no end of description can coavey a cleir impression of these machines, we leave the rest to the inspection and appreciation of proipective purchasers. BINDER TWINE. Wo have to congratulate the farming community on a very marked f a'l in price since last season, doubtless the re3ult of the movement which followed the newspaper controversy between Mr Ward rfDd our manager. Whether or nob, it is gratify iug to know that makers have reduced their prices fully £5 to £10 per ton without lowering the price paid producers for the fibre, or the toilers for labour. The duty at aßt is cif, and tbete can now bo no more of the rings which last season cost farmers such a lot' of money. Our quotations are : — Flax 3 Jd credit 3Jd cash Mixed , ... 4<l „ 3}d „ Manila 4Jd „ 41d „ Brand*— Donagby's- and Rosedale Fl»x, Donaghy's Mixed and Manila.. R*il paid OUgo and Canterbury. Usual discount to <h» Trade. LUBRICATING OIL. This Oil has always baon of the very best grade. We pay bigher prices than any other firm in the trade. We c*nnot sell under 203 for sfaal,5 fa al, 10s 6d for 2j;al, or 5s 6d for lgal drums, but the vulue is «<ll there, and the oil will go further and Bhow bettor reßuUs than twice the quantity of oil at a shilling a gallon lees. We sell all the above under our own registered trade mark, and no one uuing it ba3 ever tjld us he regretted his investment. If a chsap oil is needed, we supply a second quality in sjal drums at 16s. This is a good oil, and better than that offered by any other firm at tha same figure. We seleot our oils with iufln te care, aud our customers may rely on perfect satisfaction. A farniar may as well feed * good horse on sawdust as lubricate a' good machine with cheap oil. SHEEP DIP. We have taken up the agency for Odams's Company — the oldest and bast of the Englith houses, who3B Manures and Dips have been the safeguard of the Royal farms of the Quteu and Prince of Wales for neatly 40 years. Mr John Grigg, of Longbeach, orders Odamb's manures iv 150-ton lots ; and the uniform success and appreciation which meets this company's prepjrAtions is unprecedented. For healthy stock and heavy and sound crops Odams's preparations are the key. Send to us for pamphlets, and arrange to dp your flacks with Od^nss'a poisonous or non-poironous preparations — the very standard of quality and excellence. ' THE CORRECT TIME. Many of our farmers have a<»ked v? from time to time if we could supply th-m with a better class of Waterbury tlun the ordinary nickel, in gold or silver cases, aud in siz«a suitable for themselves or ladies' wear. We have now a shipment of these watches, whiish should please the most exacting. For gentlemen, the oases *re f ull siza plain, engina turned, or ergrared, whilst the movements are jewelled in six holes, self-winding, Lava secondhand, enamelled dia?, and huids that eel; from the stem. For ladies, a neab, suitable size, too, has been selected, and the same de3cription of movemeuts adopted. The esses are either of solid silver or of rolled gold — that ia, two plate 3of solid gold filled with hard metal to give the necessary strength and substance. This carries all the advantages of solid gold — viz., strength, value, and finish (wear guaranteed for 15 years), and at the same time there is sufficient economy in price to prove attractive. We offer above, either in ladies' or gents' size, free by registered pcst — gold, 553 ; silver, 40i. Gold filled chains of same material in variou3 patterns, 20a extra. Nickel watohe* can be obtained through the ordinary trade channels, and tbe gold and fcilver watchek are a special line, particularly suitable for farmers who requite a watch showing correct time witl» a capacity for hard usage.
