The Buckeye Lowdown will out and bind every aore of cultivable land m Otago ; no other machine can do this. Every reaper and binder claims to cut .and bind without assistance on steep si jigs, and although repeatedly challenged to do so there is not one of them that can follow oar Lo»down round a stiff paddock without a man or two squatting on their sills. The Bud sye liowdowo will take part id all the principal competitive field trials of the coming season. Ownors of hilly land, secure one before it is too late. The Buckeye* Harvester Company has an agency m every important town m Canterbury, carries a large and well-Belected stock of duplicates at each, and finds expert ossi-'ince m any case of need free. Every binder started on every buyer's own firm, and every duplicate part required by the farmer supplied at from 20 to 50 per cent less cost than the prices ÜBually charged by other agents. The following curd is attached to oar exhibit at the Hew Zealand and South Beas Exhibition : — "The machinery upon this stand! secured the highest award at the Melbourne Exhibition. Although m competition with specially finished machinos, on which no time or money had been spared, we exhiWed them as now, cur ordinary stock machines, tne same m every detail * supplied to farmers. We did not resort CO 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 n*. any one machine specially fitted up for trial show or exhibition purposes. Practical Wraers can appreciate this."
