THO THE FARMER.-I am vet Agen. TO
i MANNY'S MACHINE with Woods improve
ment. shall have lot of machines here in time TO
harvest. All wanting let me know in time.
In looking in paper few days ago, l found
certificate given by /. ] Parkins, in which he raet
out on the Nanny machine. am truly sorry for tn,
gentleman that he would undertake to give such
certificate after taking his harvest off with the Nanny
machine and taking good care to cut his meadow be
fore he gave up the machine and after cutting mead
ow and grain he had small piece of timothy ani
clover and borrowed Mccormick and pulled it of
with that. As to the description he gave of the ma
chine nothing about it; the machine perform:
its work perfect where it Is managed by hands OF ex
perience, and can show certificates to prove thai
from practical men than either that have gver
certificates In reference to the Nanny machine ana
am sorry to think that one man would undertake 70
give certificate in opposition to many farmers In
the United States, and shall show you one certificate
at this time, and in few days shall have certificates
OF all the farmers which sold machines to, to prove
that the machines performed up to their recommen.
da alton, Yours Respectfully, v ur,
Maryland, Sept 16, 1858.
Mr.. WALTER A. WooD-DEAR SIR II purchased
and used one of your combined machines this
was told what it would do in grass by your agent,
and thank him for perseverance in my case but not
before trying McCormicks combined machines having
used one for the past five years it could do nothing in
my grass. tried it and gave it up. Having large
amount of hay to cut applied to your agent for one
of your machines and was just time to get the last
one he had on hand. 1t has worked entirely beyond
my expectations have used but one team, and have
moved and reaped $50 acres and the machine is as
good as new. consider the raising and lowering Of
the machine one of the greatest Improvements on
reapers of this age used to carry rail on my back
when / used McCormick's machine, to lift it over
stones and dtches but that lever your machine is
worth everything. If / had got it on the start |
should have saved half the price of the machine.
am prepared and so are my neighbors to recon-.
mend it as being the best machine in use.
