Every binder started on every buyer’s own farm, and every duplicate part required by the farmer supplied at from 20 to 50 per cent less cost than the prices usually charged by other agents. The following card is attached to our ex hibit at the New Zealand and South Seas Exhibition “The machinery upon this stanc secured the highest award at the Melbourne Exhibition.

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 fot trial show or exhibition purposes.
