 POINTS ABOUT THE MAXWELL MOWER 
 
 Driving wheels arc larger than the majority uf other Mowers, giving it a greater cutting power. 
 The gearing is all enclosed, and thoroughly protected from dust. 
 
 The bar can be adjusteil at inner or outer ends, and is well adapted for rough ground. 
 A combined shoe and wheel is used for carrying l)ar over furrcjws. 
 
 The pitman liox and shaft are made in such a manner that any operator can always keep them 
 tight withdut any difficulty.

 OR sovoral yoars I have been exporirnentinj^f with Low. 
 down Hinder, nnd nm ploaHod tostato that T have succeeded 
 in placing on tlio market a niacliine wliich is a thorouiifh 
 success. This lian heen achieved after considerabUi liard 
 work, and amidst a <(ood deal of adverse criticisTn on the 
 part of intejcsted parties. But with the record before us 
 of the Maxwell Low-down during the harvest of 1884, 
 " we fear no foe," and approach you for the coming 
 harvest with tlie following guarantee: 
 
 "The MAXWELL LOW-DOWN BINDER is guaranteed, the 
 lightest draft machine in the market, as durable as any, will do 
 equally as good work, will work on rougher ground, go through a 
 narrower gate without change than any other, and has less parts than 
 any machine yet produced." 
 
 The following testimonials from farmers competent to judge, who 
 have either worked machines or witnessed tests, show conclusively that 
 the Maxwell Low-down Kinder is what it is claimed to be — 
 
 A PERFECT SUCCESS.

 Better than with a Reaper. 
 
 Drayton, August 26th, 1884. 
 David Maxwem., Paris. 
 
 Dear Sir, -Your Low-down Binder cut for me to-day five acres of wheat. It was an 
 exceedingly rough piece oi' ground ; the lands were narrow and furrows very deep. The Binder did 
 (irstclass work, without missing any sheaves. It was lietter done than I could do with Reaper. 
 My small team was quite capable to do the work. 
 
 Yours, truly, 
 
 HUGH MONTGOMERY. 
 
 A Perfect Success. 
 Davjd Maxwell. Paris, 3rd .September, 1884. 
 
 Dear .Sir, — After arranging to get your Binder this harvest, I was informed that it was a failure, 
 and agents of other firms endeavored to (tblain my order for their machines, when you informed 
 me you were willing to place a machine on my farm on its merits. I was satisfied, and the result 
 I do not think can be any mor'j satisfactory to you than myself. My son, 15 years of age, and who 
 had never previ(jusly been on a binder, worked it through the entire harvest with as much ease as 
 a reaper or mower. I never used more than two horses, and am satisfied they worked with very 
 little more draft than an ordinary reaper. The machine was tried on all kinds of grain and under 
 various conditions, and the work done was something I do not think can be equalled, and I am 
 positive cannot be excelled. 1 would have no other machine, and if your Low-down Binder is 
 what your opposition call a failure, I may say that in any farming machinery I require I would pre- 
 fer the failures to the successes. I can cheerhilly recommend the machine to anyone requiring a 
 first-class Binder. Yours truly, 
 
 C. BARKER.

 DcoB not Sweat one Span of Horses. 
 
 David Maxwrli., Paris. Mono Road, August, 1884. 
 
 Oeak Sik, I saw your Low-down Hinder working for one hour, and ii was ho sii.iple that I 
 fancied the machine and got it to cut ten acres of heavy oats. I did it with one span of horses and 
 did not Hweat them. I would advise fanners to see your Binder ijefore buying. 
 
 Yours truly, WILLIAM WARD. 
 
 Equally good in Standing or Tanglarl Grain. 
 
 David Maxwem., I'aris. I'a,<is, 2nd September, 1884. 
 
 Dear .Sir, The Maxwell Low-down Hinder at wc k on my farm excelleil my expectations. 
 Part of the field was standing and part adly down an. I tangled, but the little Binder did equally 
 good work under any condidions. I would advise any one wanting the beat Hinder to buy a 
 Maxwell Low-down. Yours truly, HENRV MARTIN.

 Passing through Elever. Feet Gate a decided Advantage. 
 
 David Maxwki.i,, Paris. (ii,EN morris, 4th .Septeml)er, 1884. 
 
 Dkar Sir,- We witnessed the wor'cing of your Low-down Himler on farm of Mr. Wm. bat- 
 ters, and for quality of work done, lightness of draft and simplicity, it is ahead of any Binder we 
 have seen. Two horses can tlraw your machine as easily as three can an elevating machine, and 
 being able to drive through an eleven fet*. gate without folding your machine we consider a decided 
 advantage. In fact, your machine is wIiKt farmers have been lookintj for, and we would advise' 
 them to see it before buying.

 Did the Work every time in Heavy Wheat and Thistles. 
 David Maxwell, Paris. Chincuacousy, Augu.st 22nd, 1884. 
 
 Dear .Sir,— I had a trial of your Low-down Binder in a very heavy crop of wheat. There 
 was a lot of thistles in part of the grain, and the general opinion was that in such a place the 
 machine would choke ; but the m.ichine did the work every time. There is nothing to compare 
 with it in the Binder line, and 1 can recommend it to any one wanting a first-class Hinder.

 HULLETT, August 29th, 1884. 
 
 -do- Binder I jiurchased from you is all that can be desired. I have 
 
 ^, and it tlid it s]jlendidly. I have cut fall wheat, barley, oats and 
 
 " heavy and somewhat lodged. It cuts clean, and binds a good 
 
 ith ease, and I consider it equals the work of any binder yet 
 
 ts construction. —Yours truly, P, HAWTHORN. 
 
 .miers not to Buy any other. 
 David Maxwell, Par.:; Paris, . :t September, 1884. 
 
 Dear Sir, — Your Low- 1.,., mder cut for me twenty-two acres of barley, and did the work 
 very satisfactorily. It is easily operated, light of draft, and I much prefer it to the heavy elevating 
 maohine. I would advise farmers not to buy any other. I. L. HOWELL. 
 
 Conveniently Operated. No Difticulc y passing through Gates. 
 David Maxwell, Paris. Paris, 3rd September, 1884. 
 
 Dear Sir, — The Low-down Binder I purchased from you has given me entire satislaction. 
 Two horses worked it all harvest, and it ilid the work well. It is easier of draft than any Binder 
 I have seen, conveniently operated, and iio ditticulty in passing through eleven feet gate. I can 
 recommend it to intending purchasers. DAVID RUTHERFORD.

 Fifty Dollars the Value of any Elevator Binder he ever Ba.vr. 
 David Maxwell, Paris. Springfield, August, 1884. 
 
 Sri, — With many others I witnessed the working of your Low-down Binder, and I would not 
 now give fifty dollars for the best elevator I ever saw. Your Low-down is so convenient for pass- 
 ing through gates, simple and convenient to handle ; it is just what farmers want.

 Neither Side Draft nor Weight on Horses' Necks. 
 David Maxwell, Paris. Cali<;don Hast, August 20th, 1884. 
 
 I had a trial of your Binder on my farm, and it works without a fault. There is neither side 
 draft nor weight on horses' necks. All who witnessed it pronounced it the coming Binder. The 
 Maxwell Low-down takes the cake. Yours truly, THOS. GOODEAVE.

 Out 80 Acres, and the Worst Lodged Field in Oxford Oounty 
 
 David Maxwei.i Paris. Blenheim, 3rd Sept., 1884. 
 
 Uear SIR, -The Low-down Binder purchased from you is everything that was guaranteed, 
 I have cut 80 acres of difierent kinds of gram, and in ail shapes. I had one field of wheat and 
 oats, I thmk, as badly down and lodged as anything in this oounty, but your Binder was just the 
 article to harvest it.. It is superior to any Elevator Binder built, a horse lighter in draft, and more 
 conveniently operated. Yours truly, RANDOLPH KENNEDY. 
 
 Six and Three-quarter Acres in Pour Hours. 
 David Maxwell,, Paris. Pak,s, jrd Sept., 1884. 
 
 Dear S'r,— Yjaur Low-down Binder at a test on my farm cut six and three-quarter acres 
 in four hours. It was on a v ;ry hilly piece of land, and the work done was excellent. I think 
 one team can handle your Binder as easily as three can any Elevator machine. 
 
 Yours truly, ELVIN HILL. 
 
 In a Badly Lodged Field of Oats. 
 
 David Maxwell, Paris. 
 
 Dear Sir,— I witnessed the working of your Low-down Binder in a bad'.y lodged field of 
 oats on my place. It worked to perfection, and I would advise farmers to see Maxwell's Low- 
 down Binder before buying elsewhere. Yours truly, ANDREW SMITH. 
 
 Oan Out from Ten to Twelve Acres a Day with Light Team. 
 David Maxwell, Pari.s. Si-ringkield, August, 1884. 
 
 Dear Sir,— By request of y^ur agent here, Mr. R. H. Lindsay, I went to station and 
 got your Low-down Binder to test. I had purchased a new Reaper two years ago and had no 
 intention of buying a Binder, but I soon changed my mind after .seeing yours work. I would not 
 be without it for a great deal more than the cost. I cut over twenty acres, and can cut from ten 
 to twelve acres a day with my team, which does not weigh over 2,100 lbs., and drive it into the 
 barn every night without any trouble. I would not give one hundred dollars for the best Elevator 
 liinder made. I wish you success. You have supplied what farmers want. 
 
 Yours very truly, LYMAN LJtXTER.
