IN \ —-A— %• Ncith'er (ip we put any extra weight of material in any part for the sake causing a cheaper, but more bulky material. We USe the best and most appropriate material for each particular part. In our Foundation Frame we use Steel, and obtain the greatest strength by having the fewest possible Joints. Wherever the continuity of any material Is broken, or in other words, wherever a joint has to be made, there every means has to be resorted to, by using extra labor ' and weight of material, and then with but partial success, to endeavor to restore the strength and solidity, which has been sacrificed. The steel in the frame of our Binder is as continuous as practicable to make it. : t ■ ~ I The Main Gear Frame Is made of one solid piellf^ of flanged steel, upon which all the connected bearings for the shafting are firmly bolted. This cai^ never bend or twist, and the shafting and gearing all run as true, snug and free as the working parts of an engine, or other well constructed mactupe. This feature cannot be too closely loolied into, as some makers have attempted to avoid the expense of securing absolute rigidity and strength in their Main Gear Frame, by using a chain drive from main drive wheel, which, while it adapts itself to the twisting and changing position of the working parts, caused by the use of a cheaper, weaker and inferior construction, shifts the expense from the shoulders ol the manufacturer to those of the purchaser, in the shortened life of the machine, as well as additional expense in needed repairs. In this main gear frame 9f steel, we have a drive wheel so large and so brpad, that furrows are crossed with an ease and steadiness which does not jar or rack the machine, and upon soft ground does not sink in and make the draft very heavy, nor does it go over rough and uneven groupd with that unsteady, jerky motion so character- istic of smaller drive wheels. No Binder can do good Solid as a Rock. wori( with an unsteady, uneven motion. The Bindinit Attfc|iment on this Steel Binder is carried oo the Mlib Gear Frame, and not on the Elevator Frame, as in other Binders. Just see how solid it is.

A most Impor- tant part of a proper cut ting apparatus Is a good guard, and our malleable steel faced guard fills this requirement to a nicety.

The knotter is the moat impoHant part of a Binder. An otherwise well constructed Binder with a poor knotter is perfectly useless. Our knotter is Tory simple ; always ties, makes a great saring in twine. Knife cuts but one cord— does not get oat of adjustment. Avoiding any possibility of straw winding at the ends of the rolletSf so usual with other binders, when the straw is green or damp. iM|iny Other Binders which would otherwise have been successful have entirely failed in their binding and knotting mechanism. How many are there in use to-day, which will clog and stick fast where the straw is green or damp, or give almost unbearable annoyance, from missing «heaves, and no apparent means of preventing it ? This arises from faulty workmanship, added to the greater fault of a wrong principle in construction, in which case no remedy can be applied short of an entirt.replacing of the part, by something more practical. Many iinotters work Sufficiently well for a time whervnew, to satisfy the purchaser, but after some' wear takes place, develop such defects and weakness as to make it impossible for them to do satisfactory work, even with the constant tinkering bestowed upon them. The Knotter used by us for the past five years is so simple in construction, so free from any weak or delicate parts, so positive in its movements and so certain in its work, that it has removed all the elements of uncertainty and doubt, from this part of the operation of the Binder. It practically takes oare Of itself, and its successful working does not depend upon any nicety of adjust- ment, or freedom from conditions fon/id in the (ield,.but will faithfully do its work under all o^cumstances. It has feWer and stronger parts than arly other Knotter made, and is the only Knotter made which does hot cut off, drop or waste a single particle of Twine* This is something that interests every farmer. Every dollar saved in the twine bill adds Just so much to the earnings of the farm, and in these days of necessary close economy, how can money i>e made easier than by saving In this way. No pieces of twine being cut otf, there are no pieces to be drawn into the Knotter and cause It to miss tying. « ■■ — 8 — ■ , -J ; ' • (, '. . .,,.«. ^2? _ ♦^' s , ■A iS"* f»><..^ Pi'«-,e square and even, and in order to accomplish this, the butter must Ke something more than merely in name.

The accompany illustration of it fully confirms its record for compactness, lightness and general neatness, whilst its construction of the best quality ■of steel and iron, with workmanship of the highest grade, and its very superior working qualities, constitute it a thoroughly first class Binder in every respect. We have thousands of testimonials from the niost reliable and progressive farmers in Capada, all speaking in the very highest terms of praise as to the satisfaction it has given them. These Binders are all supplied with our new perfect cord-saving knotter, and which, as their dW record proves, will handle the lightest as well as the heaviest and most tangled crops that grow in a manner not equalled by any other Binder made, and with perfect ease for one pair of horses.

The great advantage and superiority of Vur adjust- able feed gave t% Hoosier a boom that sent it with one grand stride dirsctly to the highest point in public favor, a positron it is eminently worthy of, and in which it is firmly established by its unequalled merits. It is quite easy to make broad sweeping claims of superiority on paper, and it is freely indulged in by manufacturers of inferior drills. We have observed that the most inferior ones are blowed the loudest, and the greatest stress is placed on various traps that are employed ,on..them to attract the attention of the farmers, and draw it away from the many defects in their feed and other vital parts. Each suoiModing year fumlshos additional and stronger evidence that the superiority claimed by us actually existp In the Hoosier and not on paper alone, and of the fact that the extravagant claims indulged in by the makers of "Shoddy" Drills are hollow and false. The natural result Is a rapidly Increasing demand for the Hoosier Drill, and a corresponding decrease for others that fail to come up to the point of merit claimed for them. This also explains why it is that we are obliged to keep up a constant increase in capacity to keep it equal to the demand, while others have to expend their energy in endeavoring to keep the demand up to the capacity. Rival manu- fticturers are forced to aciinowledge the superiority of the Hoosier, and to admit that it Is the standard and leading grain drill of the world. It had combined opposition to contend with, but finally and triumphantly won its way to high favor on the basis of true merit » " # Our adjustable force feed is without exlreption the best grain or grass feed in existence, and the unquestionable popularity of the Hoosier is in no small degree due to the well known and acknowledged superiority of its feed over all others. The feed is the most vital part of a seeding" machlnei, and one that has a poor feed cannot do good work, nor give satisfaction in the higRest degree, no matter how'good it may be in other reapecte, hence the feeid Should receive the most careful attention in the selection of a Grain Drill, and it should be remembered that the one with the best feed Should be chosen when other things are equal. Special attention is therefore invited to the following description, which in connection with the foregoing cuts will convey a clear understanding of the construction and efficiency of our feed. -__^_ ^ -^ practical accurately, adjust- le highest blished by on paper, t the most ps that are i^he many vidence ct that the rapidly :ome up to ity to keep I manu- tandard iiantly won lestionable all others. work, nor he most I should connection Noxon Steel Hoosier Drill FRONT VIEW.

The scallops of this ring fit into the flutes or grooves of the roll. The feed rolls are all fastened to a square rod, called the feed rod, which is moved lengthwise by a leven When the lever sUnds to the furthest point to the left, the entire surface of all the feed rolls is within their respective cups, and the feed is then set at its greatest capacity. The movement of the lever to the right causes a corresponding portion of the feed rolls to pass through the rosette or scalloped rings, and'that portion of them passed through is removed from contact with the ^n so that there w.l be a less quantity of grain forced out., Our feed OUpS all SOW the Same quantity because the feed rolls are all substantially attach^ to tSe same shaft, so tW one «innot be moved without moving them all an equal d'f »- «'7»».7:"J1^, Consequently the Change Is unlfOrm In all cups.

It Is a positive force feed in reality and construction, not merely in name. The liability of one or more cups sowing more or less than the others is very great when set screws are used in connection with the feed, as they are liable to get loose and let the parts slip and cause uneven sowing, which will not be discovered until the grain comes up, when the damage done cannot be remedied for that crop. There are drills on the market that have one set screw for eich cup, and some that have more than that. Our feed has no Set SCrews to render it trappy and unreliable.

Th« combined machine la an excellent Mower, and haa no aupeHor ae a Reaper. It welsha leea than 1,000 pounda. and le very lisht in draught and easily handled by a light team of horses, even upon hilly or uneven ground. Having two drive wheels without gearing in them K will wrorl^tipon aoft, wet f^round, where machines with the sear iii the drive wheel will not. It is just the machine for use upon new or comparatively rough ground, as the hinged bar and platform,- together with the two drive wheels, mahe a perfectly flexible machine, and enables it to adapt itself to the inequalities of uneven ground without danger ot the knives coming in contact with any projections, and leaving a uniform and even stubble over the whole field. The gmwrlng le all neatly enclosed, and the whole of the bearings and working parts are thoroughly fitted up and constructed upon the .latest mechanical principles. Any of its parts can he readily removed and replaced if necessary. The rakes are completely under control of the driver, and at the same time can be set to deliver automatically any one or more or all in succession, if desired. We are safe in declaring that /there never- has been any other machine of this class produced that can at all compare with it upon small 0{ rough farms where a Self Binder would not be required, as hut a few minutes suffice to rhangeit to a Mower, not surpassed by any S ingle Mower, and as a Harvester it has never been equalled by any single Reaper. , ; i .,.:i«^ 24 Combined Jffower and Reaper arttiA„^.^,„ or v^ L 4 ij ^HIS MACHINE IS SO SIMPLE, so able, so available, so easy and so handy, and so varied in capacity, and so unrivdlled as to lightness of draft, that it always fills the buyer with satisfaction^ AVhere grain is grown in small quantities, or where the Self Binding Harvester needs supplementing, our No. 5 Reaper is a popular. Machine, K is easy to handls. The driver easily raises the entire machine to cut high, or as quickly lowers it to cut low, by a lever close at his hand, fioith jides move at once, so without stoppage or delay he raises it for high grain and drops it for badly lodged and tangled grain itistantaneuusly. The lodged grain which leans from the machine, he easily picks up by using the tilting lever. It niakss bundlss at any slss dsslrMl.

In all kinds of grass, upon all kinds o ground, and in the hands of all classes of farmers, it has never flinched o^r faiied to accomplish any taiic demanded «r it. Its sinews of steel and arms of iron possess the strength and power tc) do a service which has justly won for it the praise of its most' exacting patrons, as well as the warmest friendship of the most practically critical portion of the farming community. The design and mechanical arransentent of this machine is the growth of years of experieQce and gradual perfection, »n a" >ts parts, so that now it stands alone as beins the perfection |n simplicity, du rabillty and eflloiency of Rear Out Mowers. No other Rear Out Rflower made is so simple, and no other has all its parts so thoroughly and exac^y adapted to the duty each part has to perform as in this. A steel axle, of ample size and strength, is used to carry the gearing and frame upon drive wheels, which are of a size our extensive experience has taught us, are of the best to «ive *the highest results in speed, ease and smoothness in working upon all kinds of land. This shaft carries a square gear wheel which turns with, or is disengaged from the shaft by means of a clutch, and operated by a lever, and, when out of gear, leaves all the gear or working parts fre^ from any motion or wear whatever. This wheel engages with a pinion connected with a bevel wheel, which drives a pinion upon the Crank shaft. All the g^mrlng, shafting and worfclns parts are securely held In their relative and proper positions by beins enclosed In a solid fkrame of Iron, which is tightly closAd by a cover to exclude all the dust or dirt The bearinse are all of unusual length and provided with the best facilites for oiling. You muet have a coed crank shaft and bearings in a «ood M^wer. This part of it wiU not stand the jerk and strain necessary to drive a knife to do good, clean, easy cutting, unlesss, it is properly proportioned and fitted up. :"~~ — TT ;, ~ Here I* how ws make our crank shaft and flttlnss in this sensible, reliable Mower. We do not economize in cost by shortening up our crank shaft and contracting our frame. We make our crank shaft a sood lensth and (ive it ffood lon^f boarinss in the sleeve which we show here, and which is accurately bored out and fitted to the shaft, with a nicety found m& m .'•y. Noxon No. 30 Rear Cut Mower c ^y in the higher classes of mechanical work. This sleeve, with its shaft, is firmly bolted in the frame of the machine with a firmness, making it all but equal to one solid piece of Iron. The whole «f th« S«Arlns and worfclns parts mrm so arransad that thsy can- not movo or sot ono lota out of place. So firmly and accurately are they held t^iat they cannot bind or cramp In the least, and for this reason our Mower honorably earns the reputation of being the ' lightest running Mower In the market. A thing of such great importance as the pitman has not escaped our closest attention. We have tried many different kinds, and for this machine we find that a pitman, of a size to be strong and light, of the best quality of second growjh ash, with malleable iron fiitings, all securely rivetted, cannot fee surpassed. With a pitman of this kind, connected at the hardened crank pin wtth a pitman box of equal hardness, makes a crank connection which will out- wear the life of the best Mower. The knife connection is by a ball upon the knife head, upon which the pitman clamps with ready means of tightening, to take up_ any lost motion. All these means and - appliances are for practical every-day use and not merely to talk about, in order to draw the attention of the intending pij^chaser away froih some more serious defects and objectionable features which exist in other Mowers. We do not loose sisht of the yry grmmt importance of the cutting apparatue. We uss the very baat knives that are to be had, made from the very best quality of steel to withstand the very severe .usage they sometimes meet with jnd yet to retain for the longest possible tinfe, a thoroughly good ahd easy cutting edge. We show how our' extra annealed malleable Iron suarde are fitted with a steel plate of same quality of steel as our knivee, against the edges of which the knives make a shearing cut, reducing the power required to do the cutting, to the lowest possible limit Theee plates can be replaced by n^w onee in a very short tlms^and in that way keep the cutting part in the very best condition. The shape of the shafts and guards are such that the cutter bar can be tilted to catch anything in the way of a crop upon the ground) and, when required, can be made to run at any height desired. This simplicity and strength of this Mower must commend it to a.\\ who have a proper appreciation of these desirable qualities. The method of Ite construction has been so -; — studiedthat any farmer can take every portion ofit apart and replace it in the field if necessary, with only such tools as are usually • ^ furnished with a Mower. This means a saving of very valuable time in the unusual event of necessity for replacing any part in the busy season. __„__1.,%__„^ m.- ■•" . -^ —f H-^ ., -.-rr:--, , M-^,^. , ■.;;: ; ;, v' ;_; .J^., ., .

Prince Edward Co. jiis to the advantage in using Self Binders in harvesting barley, I would say that last fall I was through a part of this country, looking after prime grades of barley, calling at nearly every farm. In many cases I found a pure bright grain, and in the adjoining farm the grain would be quite dark. On asking the causQ of this of the famler, the invariable reply would be, " MyHeighbor, whose grain isbHght, has a Self Binder, and I have nolle." In my opinion the genenij uSehof Self Binders will give us a more uniform and brighter grade 6f barley. '' P. C. ERB, Moorefield P.O., Wellington Co. - I am highly pleased with the way your Light Steel Binder performs its work. I find I can take up lodged grain fully equar to any reaper.

I consider it a great advjfintage to raise and lower both ends without getting off the seat. Ihave cut mv com with it, which stood from 6 to 10 feet high ; but in doing this the great secret is to know how to use the reel property, as without this it is not so easy to accomplish it. \^ , JOHN SHEEHAN, Sombra P.O., Kent Co. I am well pleased with my Noxon Binder. For simplicity, good working and saving of twine by thd knotter, I think it is the nest I have ever used. My neighbor could not cut the half of his barlev with his machine, so 1 told him to take mine, which he did, and it worked in good shabe, tend he thinks there is no other can do the work as good. In all its parts I think there is none jequal to it. JOHN O'REILLY, Caledonia P.O.. Haldimand Co.

The tilting qualities are perfect. I cut over 30 acres and it never missed one sheaf. It cannot be surpassed in the saving of twine. It is free from Tiseless bolts or joints, and the large drive wheel is of great advantage in the way of draught and siieadi- ness of running on ro^h and uneven ground.

The Ugh Steel Binder I purchased from you has given good satisfaction. I prefer it to other binders for the following reasons : lightness of draught (we never had cause to use more than two light horses on the heaviest or worst ground), its capacity for taking up lying grain owing tbits roundra finger bar enabling it to get close to tM ground without clogging, the perfect Action of the reel, enabl- ing it to take up grain lying as flat 9& it couldHra, and making well formed and well tied sheaves. The knotter is very simple and ties a good kftot compared with other machines. There are a great variety of machines in this locality, but I think the Noxon the best of all. JOHN H. HILLOCK. Caledon P.O., Peel Co. I consider the Noxon No. 7, Steel Binder, the best in the market. It is the easiest worked, sure to tie and needs less twine. Very strong and simple ; nothing to get out of Repair. The reel is easliy adjusted for any condition of crop. JOHN BEARISTO, Baltic P.O., P.E.I.

I cut six acres of oats in three and a half hours with my binder with- out sweating my two horses in the le^t. It is triklv a twine saver, and no man can operate it without being pleased ^ith it. The large drive wheel is a great improvement on rough or uneven ground.

The knotter is ^o simple there is nothing to get wrong with it, and it takes less twine to make a knot than any that I know of. Vou can tie as tight or slack as you like and it makes a nice square sheaf, and does not discharge a'shenf on the hclSid to shell the grain out, as some machines do. The reel and tilt, in fact, all levers are so easy to work that a boy ten year old could oper&te them without any trouble while the horses are in motion. AUGUSTUS WILSON, Vienna P.O., Elgin Co.

It is very simple, and although I had only seen one other binder before, I got mine I put it up and worked it without any difficulty. It makes a neat, square sheaf, and can be tied as tight as you like. The rounded finger bar is a very great advantage ih passing over rough or uneven ground or stones, and you can cut ab close to the ground as you like without clogging the knives with dirt, etc. It is a very simple knotter and takes less twine than any binder I know of, and I have seen twelve different kinds of binders at worii. The binder has a very simple gear and a very strong isteel frame, which keeps it perfectly stifr and rigid. H. BATTERMAN, W'illiamsford P.6., Grey Co. My Noxon Binder works w^U on rough and' uneven ground as well as on soft or light soil. It fs light on the hotrses both as regards draft aiid jiock weight. It ties a firm knot and, makes considerable saving in twine. The sheaf is tightly bound and st^itas handling without coming apart or getting loose. THOMAS FLAVELL,E, Cjlasgow P.O., OnUrio Co. My Noxon Binder will cut and handle thd heaviest kind of grain without clogging or choking, and runs onefthird lighter than apy other binder I have seen. As I am the o^ily one who hais one of your binders in this neighborhood I have offered to compete with any other in a fair field.

The knotter works good and saves twine< fn fact, the whole machine is wtill built, light and strong, and gives good satisfaction. WILLIAM MARTIN, Belmont P.O., Middlesex Co. I have had no person examine my Noxon Binder yet but said it was the most perfect machine that they ever saw, it has so light and strong an appearance. Everyone surely knows that a large wheel is a great advantMre over a small one, as it will not drop into every little hole, and in that way it runs steadier as well as easier. We have lued all kinds of twine in our machine, and I have not.mis8ed a sheaf in 40 acres cutting. As for strength, any man can judge for himself who is any judge of machinery by looking at the machine. . The rounded finger bar is just what we want, for we can get close to the ground withont clogging up. The appearance of the sheaf is A 1, as the butter makes tnem perfectly square and even. lAMES LAVELLE, Pembroke P.O.. Renfrew Co. I think your Binder to be the most durable, easiest handled, and freest running maehiqe of any made, for smoothe or rough ground. The sheaf is very neat, securely tied, easily handled, and the whole machine has the fewest joints of any made. The round finger bar makes it the best adapted for going over rough or uneven ground. I have a new and rough farm, and nesitated for some time about'jtur- chasing a binder, biit I can say atter using it that it will do perfect work on any kind of ground. WILLIAM Mcdowell, Athgrove P.O., Halton Co. I could no t as k a ny b e t te r m a chine th a n t h e N ox on Ste e l Binder , ■^w- ^ _ withmine. Ilikethe way the reel works, particularly In short oi* lodged grain, where it works splendidly and is easily adjusted ; in fact, the whole machine appears to me to be splendidly adapted for the work it is required to do. , . . and I do not think there is any to beat it. It is simple, easy to handle, and will gather up lying grain : in fact, I was surprised at the way it would work in bad grain. The knotter is superior to any- thing Ibave seen, and Uking it altogether, it is everything that ooiiid be dedred. -42— '"^: ■y^-M >/ :\ ■■ NOXON IMPLEMENTS ARE PRAISED BY PURCHASERS. WM. LAWLER, Maxwell P.O., Grey Co. isider the Noxon Binder perfect so far as my experience goes wikh it. It cannot be beaten in making a slieaf , and the butter is so eMily handled in long or short grain that it makes a she^f perfectly square|tnd even. I consider the machine second to none for strength and lightness so far as draft is' concerned. There is less sidle draft than any single reaper I ever saw work. I cut 40 acres, and I never saw it miss a sneaf excepting when the twine broke, land some of my neighbors told me to be caireful inthistley grain and not cut more than half width, but I put it in and cut as wide as possiblfs and it neyer choked. ThCw frame is first-class, iind a party that ran another iMake of binder for two years examined mrne ifnd said he wished he could get around the drive wheel of his, as it wjas easier to get at for oiling, etc., and also that ours is so much ^ore simple then his, and he considered it a great advantage on tha,t account. I JAMES BROWN, Gait P.O., Waterloo Co. .. I'consider the Noxon Binder the best in the market, and would not exchange mine for any I have seen. I And that two horses will handjte the Noxon Binder with greater ease than three can any other I hai^e seen. Your machine throughout is simple, light and strong. with I no useless joints or bolts, and the threashers say they would rather thresh after the Noxon Binder than an^ other. I consider the Mrge drive wheel a very great advantage in going over rough ground. V^ JOHN CORBETT, Kincardine P.O., Bmce Co. Having operated another make of binder for two seasons, and one which IS represented as being second to none in the market, I am in a position to appreciate the diiference between yours and othc^rs, and have no hesitation in giving the preference to the Noxou Binder in every particular. The great advantage of being able to par oftE WM. G. BROWN, Port Albert P.O., Huron Co. The Noxon Bincler which I bought is light in draft, owing to the large drive wheel. The main gear frame is strong and firm. It is very evenly balain-ed, and convenient in raising or lowering both ends at the same time. It appears to be as strong as steel and good workmanship can make it, and It properly attended to with oil and ordinary care, there never need be any trouble ^ith it. MALCOLM McINNES. Priceville P.O., N.S. It would be impossible to find any fault with the Noxon Steol Binder, for it does its work perfectly if propt^rlv handled. 1 am perfectiv satisfied with it in every respect, as it does better than I expectei^ any binder could do, and I believe it surpasses any other binder in the market. I have cut nearly 35 acres and believe 4 never missed over five sheaves the \ifhole season. H. J. CHITLEY, Salmon Point P.O., Prince Edward Co. Your light steel harvester, is as its name impli«w, a inachim^ made principallv of steel from the foundation up. As steel is the material most laVgely used in its construction, it has no weak points to sret racked or loose from the work it is required to perform. It is a machine that will stand hard knocks, and it will always comes out with living colors on the top of the heap. It is the surest tyiiii? machine of any I have seen, and I have seen all kinds ; and it saves twine besides. raisja both ends of the machine with one hand enables the driver to raiae or lower the machine and still have command of his team wiuout stopping. It icertainly possesses very great advantage over othjbr machines in being able to cut close to the ground and pick up 1 or lying grain where the ground is not smooth. Theknotter never misses, and makes a nice nght sheaf and saves considerable ine over other knotters. JAMES SMITH, Shakespeare P.O., Oxford CO. I ctat my crop of 200 acres, and I never use more than two horsei* on my Noxon Binder dving to its being so well balanced and tree from side draft. It is very light on the team as it appears to run very easy owing to its large drive wheel. I am very much pleased ry I ifrl with the gimpUcit y of the knotter, and I can cut a ll d a v without missinir a sheaf, unless the cord tangles or something of that kind. It savOT considerable cord over any other knotter that I know of, I think the rounded finger bar a great improvement in working on ^uneven ground or over furrows, as it seems to go over them aft ^ eMily as a stone boat I very much like the plan of raising and lowering both ends of the machine at once without leaving the seat. —43- ■I'- NGXON IMPLEMEiNTS ARE PRAISED BY PURCHASERS. iw ABRAM HALPENNY, Arnprior P.O., Renfrew Co. From what I have been able to judge of my Noxon Binder I think it is perfect in every respect. The draft is as light as could be desired for machine doing the same wprk. I find that It did not miss a sheaf, and did not use nearly as touch twine as others have used in binding the same amount of grain. The strength of the mftin gear frame is a great improvement, as it is sohd and lirm and has very few joints. The sKeaf is neat, well b«und, and stands handling without conning to pieces. DONALD A. ikcDONALD, Clea^ ^ring P.O., P.E.I. I think the Noxon Binder surpasses all others I ever saw, and I cannot find any fai^ with it. The form and general appearance of the sheaf is good. T^e reel i$ easily adjusted with the left hand while the other is occupied in guiding the team. I have had no trouble with theknotter andxlo not expeot it, as it appears to be v«ry strong and simjile, not liable to get put of Order. It is very economicalin twine And misses no sheaves. JOHN WeLDON, Carlsruhe P.O., Bruce Co. The knotter of my Noxon Bidder is simiile, saves a lot of twine, and ties sure. TJiie large drive wheel is a great improvement for making it rUh even on soft, or uneven ground. I like the way both' ends can be raised or lowered from the seat. It makes a nice round and even sheaf and is very easy to handle. The st€«p doik kec^w the grain from choking, ai«a it is very easily shifted; binding long or short grain. It is very handy for fokling up in passing through gates. ^ \^ , "' ROBERT; VEITCH, Clarksbarg P.O., Grey Co. My crop last season was very heavy and a great deal con- cerned. As for strength and durability, I think it is just the thing. L> JAMES DAVIS, Oliver P.O., Oxford Co. ' I was in a field with my Noxon Binder where a couple of other binders were at work, and the grain was 90 badly lodged that the other binders missed one side of the field almost entirely, and I tMd to go and pick up and ma)ce a good job where they wouW not work at all, as the rounded fiiiger bar on my machine would Allow me to get close down to the ground without getting stuck. Also, the ease of adjusting the reel on my -machine enabled m6 to adapt it to the difTerent conditions of the grain, without taking too much of my attention from my team, and besides, I coukl raise and lower my whole machine with one hand while the machine was ^ing, if necessary. It ties and delivers easily, a first-class sheaf , tight and square, and you can count on every sheaf being tied without any twine being wasted. The large drive wheel goes over stones, through furrows or any unevenness without jarring or injuring the machine as a good many do. The whold machine appears to be solid and strong. ALEXANDER HOUSE, FerguiP.O., Wellington Co. Mv Noxon Binder is very light draft, easily tilted, and no side draft or neck weight. Any boy that is able to drive a team can take the knotter to pieces and put it together without a mistake, audit does not waste a particle of twine. It ties sure every time andmakes a well formed, nicely bound sheaf. The rounded finger bar is a great advantage. The knotter is very easily shifted to tie the sheaf in the centre where the grain is in uneven lengths. I can raise or lower my binder and do not need to stop the horses to do it< while the drivers of other machines have to scramble off. I can drive my binder through a gateway 11 feet wide. It is a great advanture in being abw to take the oinder inside in case of a storm or at night, and while I have my binder safely hoiised others Are running AfW trucks. And put in hAlf An hour loading it Mine can cut just AS long grain as Any open^back binder, and it wont go dribbling out behind.

MwKINNON, Deloro P.O., Haatinga Co. I can drive my Noxon Binder on hills without upsetting, while others have to stand on the outiside of the Cable to keep the machine from tipping over. It ties a good sheaf and you can tie as tight or - loose as you like, and save from one to two inches ol twine on every sheaf, which is quite an item in a season's cutting. The large drive wheel is of great advantage, making it run light and steady. The tilt is the handiest I have seen. JAMES J. BEAUMONT, Alport P.O., Muskoka. I have much pleasure in stating my entire satisfaction with your No. 7 Binder. I have used binders in the Okl Countiy and was very much struck with the following points in yOut Binder : Lightness of draft both on smooth and uneven, ground, freedom of weight on horses' necks, and It does not appear to make any differ- ence in draft when binding' or delivering a sheaf, which I think showr simplicity and free working of theknotter and binding parts. The saving in twine in comparison with the machine hired by me two years since is considerable. One special feature- is ease and convenience in tilting to pick up lodged grain, as well as the advantage of raising both ends of the binder bv one lever. I would say it is the best machine I have seen work either here or in the Old Country, and I have seen machines work from the best makers here and there. CHRISTOPHER WREN, Uxbridge P.O., Qij^rio Co. Judging from the appearance and working of myiNoxon Binder,' I believe it will last longer than any other binder in the market. The knotter is simple and rare to tie. The large wheel, is of great advantage in (tassing over furrows, etc. The means of; raising and lowering both ends m the binder by one lever is far in advance of those with two levers. In fact the whole machine needs^.aDly be seen in operation to be thoroughly appreciated." #^ — -. GEO. SULLIVAN, Uembr^e P.O., Renfrew Co. ' My Noxon Steel iflnder flever missed a sheaf during harvest and used very little twine. 4he draft is light, with no side draft or neck weight. I have seen no binder with so few bolts or joints. My neignoors, who were helping tae to thresh last tall, said they saw no i^ewves tiecf M neat as mine. J. ft R MAYNES. Forks Road P.O.. Welland Co.. With regard to the Noxon Binder, we. like it well owing to its simplicity, lightness and good working qualities, and like it hotter thjin any we nave seen. It makes a tight, good-looking sheaf, and the rounded finger bar never becomes choked in any kind ot grain, when running the binder close to cut short or lodged grain. It suits us well in every particular, as it is strong, light and works well. ' S. D. CRONK, Wellington P.O-. Prince Edward Co. We had never used a binder on our farm before purchasing the Noxon, which we put upon new land and it worktMl woll. Wo even bound our fodder com with it. I was surprised that the draft was so l|ght. The knotter is! very simple and there is iA> wnst of twine. The, whole machine seems to be very strong and simple and well put together , The tilt is so'eoflily done that a boy can work it without any trouble. The rai«ii^ and lowering is far ahead of any other that 1 have seen. R. I. SPOOR, Wolf Island P.O., Frontepac Co. The No. 7 Steel Binder suits me well. It is compact and very strong. I have cut 75 acres of crop this season without a niixhap. The threshers say that the-sheaVes bound with the Noxon Binder are the best and neatest of any they handle. The rounded linger baris.a great advantage in picking tip down grain or in cutting upon uneven ground. ' 1 — ^ * — ~ ' ° JAMES SHEA, Sheenborough P.O., Quebec.
