H RlOUS sources that TT adweIl 4 Co Of This
city, are endeayoring to produce the impression in
the farming community that am manufacturinn the
Nanny Machine, am more in the field to as
falsehoods.
I am not building the Nanny Machine, nor infrinr.

on the other hand am building a Machine of INV
own Invention, far superior, called the
California Combined Reaper 6 Mower,
Wholly unlike the Nanny Machine except in the use
OF the knife which there is not now NOR has there,
ever been, a patent $50 nus S

PERSONS who threaten prosecutions would be rnuch
better employed i'm actually prosecuting and estab

their hreng and secret circulars and letters throu

why don't they prosecute me- and let the farmers
alone! They know full we'll that they can maintain
no action. As | said above, they find the "BIuFP
GAME more successful with the farmer than with me !
and consequently the of their operations this
year has been transferred from this cy to the farmer
in the country.
