ALWAYS AHEAD., The Buckeye Walks In. SJuce the Buckeye showed its suitability for harvesting heavy, short ryegrass and clover, every other Elevator Binder has been claiming to be a good machine in grass ; and in many instances farmers have been badly " had " We have tried hard to bring about a competitive trinl iv grass, but, owing to the influence of agents and experts of the other machines, this has not yet eventuated. There is only one machine which will successfully hmdle heavy grass, or even extra heavy grain, and that is the Buckeye. See what users say. Jno. Smart. Kaikoura, November 11, 1892, " The Buckeye Frameless I bought last year went through my harvest capitally, cuttiug about 300 acres. In a heavy crop ef laid wheat she worked splendidly ; aud your speed of knife and elevating power are points you cannot make too much of. Another new Elevator had to leave the crop I cut without difficulty." (In conversation with Mr Smart we gathered that a new ■ Elevator was purchased hot year by the owner of the crop referred to, aud after hacking at his crop for [ a week ho had only got down 15 acres, and had to lot the cutting to Mr Smart and his Buckeye. The owner paid £27 10s for the cutting, aud put up hi 3 owii new Elevator at auction at the end of the season and sold it for £25 ) Wilson Hall. Riversdale, September 19, 1892. "In reply to your request thafc I should give my opinion of your Frameless machines, I may state they exceeded anything that I was previously led to bplieve of their capabilities. They cut between 300 and 400 acres each without a single breakage. Among other 10 machines of my own the Buckeye upheld her reputation as a thoroughly efficient harvester." (Last season, at the urgcut solicitation of our Riversdate agent, Mr Hall, who needed half a dozen new machines, consented to take one of our Frameless Binders and five new Elevators by anothes maker. The crop to be cut was a heavy one of wheat, and when a start was made the Buckeye was found to be the only machine capable of opening up and coping with the crop successfully. Mr Hall was so pleased that he took off the truck at Kiversdale station a second Buckeye consigned to a neighbour, and as the harvest had progressed had every reason to congratulate himself on his choice. Each Buckeye cut be 1 ween 300 and 400 acres of his crop without breakage, whilst the other Uf\v Binders were constantly in need of repairs. Mr Hall, we believe, has expressed his willingness to sell his other machines and replace with the Buckeye. An ounce of experience of this kind is worth a ton ef agents' misrepresentations. History repeats itself, and we could quote scores of such cases. It i 3 a universal thing, when an overseer remarks to sn owner, " It's a terribly rough and trying crop," for him to reply, " Yes ; it's too much for and . Put in the Buckeye. ") W. C. Buchanan, Esq., M.H.R. Gladstone, November 3, 1892. " I have used the Lowdown Buckeye for several seasons on crops ranging from light to exceptionally heavy, and have pleasure in stating that the work has been very satisfactorily done " Mr Buchanan owns three Lowdowns, and having a good deal of rough and hilly country under crop requires strength with efficiency i John Douglas, Esq., iiount Royal and Waihao Downs, "The Lowdown is working splendidly; clinging to the hi Iside overlooking Palmerston like a squirrel, to the admiration of all beholders. Mr Douglas has had in all five Lowdowns, ond the whole of the heavy sidling work of his two fine stations have been relegated to tho Buckeye. Jasper Nicolls, Esq. Maercwheuua, September 2.3, 1892, "I am well satisfied with the work of the Lowdown Buckeyes (four), and shall probahly require another this year. Kindly let me know the price." Mr Nicolls for mnny years used binders by another maker, but, yielding to the superior points of the Buckeye, now buys nothing else. [Extract from Private Letter ] John M. Smith, Esq. Greenfield, January 27, 1892, " I set up the two new Lowdowns (twelve Buckeyes having bee n previously purchased by Messrs J. Smith and >ons) in my spare time in the evening, and to prove that they were well and faithfully set up I may say that we started cutting oits to-day with six Lo'.tdcwns, and they till went like tops." Greenlield Station is one of tho best known in Ot;igo. Messrs Smith and Sons have purchased from us Fourteen Binders in all, coming year after year, like Oliver Twist, for more. Begg Brothers. Hillend, Ot<go. " The Buckeyes are working capitally. Th^y are the only machines which suit our country, and you need fear no opposition " Messrs Begg Brothers have used the Buckeye ever since it came to New Zealand ; have had six Binders in all, and find there is nothing to equal them. We could point to Maraekakaho, the finest station in Hiwko'a Buy, and dozens of others, where, since tho introduction of the Buckeye, all other binders have gone out of use. We have said enough to show our readeis that for hilly rough country, such aa Otago abounds in, the Buckeye is n<>t only " Always Ahead,' 1 but is the only suitable machine for the country.
