Buckeye Always Ahead.

The Buckeye secured the gold medal and special mention at the Melbourne Exhibition, the judges stating in their report that, “ Its ..construction was a special study for every intelligent mechanic.” The Buckeye Lowdown was awarded first prize at Jamestown, South Australia, the judges giving a special certificate, stating, “ In our opinion this machine is undoubtedly the machine of the future.”

The Buckeye Lowdown has just secured the grand national prize of Victoria at Traralgon Show, beating all competitors.

The Buckeye Lowdown secured first prize at Palmerston North Show on) the Bthjult., beating the Brandford.

The Buckeye Elevator secured first prize at Oamperdown A. and P. Show, beating Hornsby, M'Oormiok, Deering, and all competitors.

i-ne Buckeye Elevator won the great Bomsey Field Trial, beating the Hornsby, M’Oormick, Prandford, Massey. The Buckeye Mower and Reaper won the first prize at Palmerston North Show. The Buckeye Mower and Reaper won the first prize at the Tokomairiro Show.

The Buckeye Lowdown will cut aud bind every acre of cultivable land in Otago j no other machine-can do this.

Every reaper and binder claims to out.and bind without assistance on steep si,, mgs, and although repeatedly challenged to do so there is not one of them that can follow our Lowdown round a stiff paddock without a man or two squatting on their sills.

The Bud aye 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 well-selected stock of duplicates at each, and finds expert assurance in any case of need free. Every binder started on every buyer’s own farm, and every duplicate part required by the farmer supplied at from 20 to 60 per cent less cost than the prices usually charged by other agents. The following card is attached to our exhibit at the 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 them as now, our ordinary stock machines,the same in every detail supplied to farmers. We did not resort so 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 formers can appreciate this.”
