Read what a progressive County Engineer says: Cook County Council. (Engineer’ Office), Gisborne, June 30th, 1914 Re Austin Motor Roller and Scarifier, I have used this machine for about three months in rolling newly metalled roads, and about one month in scarifying old metal. So far the results have been satisfactory. I consider the Roller well suited to “up country’’ work, on account of not having to cart coal, coke or water. We have hitherto used benzine, the consumption being J case per day of 8 hours. I have not used the Roller yet on grades steeper than about 1 in 14, but have no doubt it will easily negotiate any practical grade. The Scarifier weighs nearly two tons and has 4 heavy tines, all of which were in use at one time. Yours faithfully, de JENNES FRASER, County Engineer.
