The Buckeye Lowdown will cut and bind every acre of cultivable land m Otago ; uo other machine can do this. Every reaper, and binder claims to cut and bind without assistance on steep s: jigs, and although repeatedly challenged to doao 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 Bucl eye Lowdown will take part m all the principal competitive field trials of the coming season. Owners of hilly land, eecure one before it is too late. The Buckey el Harvester Company has an agency m every important town m Cunterbury, carries a large and well-selected stock of duplicates at each, and finds expert asst»*ince m any case of need free. Kvery binder smarted on every bnyer'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 Beas Exhibition : — " The machinery upon this stand secured the highest award at the Melbourne Exhibition. Although m competition with specially finished machines, on which no time or money had been spared, we exhWted them aa now, aur orainarv stock machines, trie eamo m every detail * supplied to farmers. We did not resort to nickel or gilt decorations, steel knotters, special bindars, 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 machino specially fitted up for trial show or exhibition purposes. Practical farmers can appreciate" thia." JNO. ANDERSON, Agent for Canterbury, Cnrifltohurcn. D. STURHOCE, Local Agent, Tioiaru. BUOKEYE HABVEBTEB COMPANY, Bond and Crawford Streets, Dnnedin.
