Its the best Spent 1 for sailors— but" LOOK OUT ; for ALWAYS AHEAD The Buckeye Walks Ik. Since the Buckeye showed its suitability i for harvesting heavy, short ryegrass and clover, every other Elevator Binder has been i claiming to be a good machine in grass ; and in many instances farmers have been badly " had." We have tried hard to briag about a competitive trial in 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 handle heavy grass, or even extra heavy grain, and that is the Buckeye. See what usera say. Jno. Smart. Kaikoura, November 11, 1892, "The Buckeye Frameless I bought last year went through my harvest capitally, cutting about 300 acres. Iv a heavy crop of laid wheat she worked splendidly ; and your speed of kuife and elevating power are poiuts you cannot make too much of. Another new E'evator had to leave the crop I cut without difficulty." (In conversation with Mr Smart we gathered that a new Elevator was purchased last year by the owner of the crop referred to, and after hacking at his crop for a week he had only got down 15 acres, aud had to let the cutting to Mr Smart and his Buckeye. The owner paid £ - 27 10s for the cutting, and put up his own new Elevator at unction at the end of the season and sold it for £25 ) ; Wilson H>ll. Riversdale, September 19, 1892. 1 •• In reply to your request that I should give my opinion of your Frameless machines, i I may state they exceeded anything that I i was previously led to believe 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." (Laat season, at the urgent solicitation of our Riversdale 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, aud when a start was made the Buckeye was found to be the only m-tchine capable of opening up and cop ; ug with the crop successfully. Mr Hal: was &o pleased that he took off the truck at Kiversdale station % 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: wet n 300 and 400 acres of hi 3 crcp without breakage, whist the other new Binders were constantly in need of repairs. Mr Hall, we believe, has expressed his willingness to sell his other machines and replace «-ith the Buckeye. An ounce of experience of this kind is worth a toi of agents' misrepresentations. History repeats itself, and we could quote scores of such cases. It is a universal thing, when an overseer remarks to an owner, " It's a terribly rougli aud trying crop," for him to reply, " Yes ; it's too much for and . Put in the Buckeye.") W. C. Bcoiianan, Esq., M.H.R. Gladstone, November 3, 1892. " I have used the Lowdowu Buckeye for several seasons on crops ranging from light to exceptionally he*vy, an:l have pleasure in stating that the work has been very satisfactorily done." Mi- Bttclmnan owns tliree Lowdowns, and having :i goorl d<m.[ of rough aud hilly country under ui'->p requires strength with efQoiency Joun- Douglas, Esq., Mount Royal and Waihao Downs. "Tin Lowd;>wu v working splendidly clinging to the hilsiJe overlooking Palmer ston like a squirrel, to tho admiration of al beholders. Mr Douglas lias had in all five Lowdowns, ond tli« whole of the heavy sidling work of his two fine stations have been relegated to the Buckeye. Jasper Nicolls, Esq. Maerewhenua, September 25, 1892 " I am well satisfied with the work of the Lowdown Buckeyes (four), and shall probably require another this year. Kindly let me know the price." Mr Nicolls for many years used binders by another maker, but, yielding to the supeiior points of the Buckeye, now buys nothing else. [Extract from Private Letter ] Jonx M. Smith, Esq. Greenfield, January 27, 1892. " I set up the two new Lowdowns (twelve Buckeyes having been previously purchased by Messrs J. Smith and Sous) 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 oats to-day with six Lowdowns, and they all went like tops." Greenfield Station is one of the best known in Otago. 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. They 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 his Binders in all, and find there is nothing to equal them. — — <& We could point to Maraekakaho, the finest station in Hiwke's Bay, and dozens of otherß, where, since the introduction of the Buckeye, all other binders have gone out of use. We have said enough to show our readers that for hilly, rough country, such as Otago abounds in, the Buckeye is not only 11 Always Ahead," but ia the only suitable machine for the country.
