ROAD CONTRACTORS.
Attention!

ns AVE time. money, and hard work Use the S DIAGONAL ROAD-SCRAPER fT Hear what Roadmakers say of it: have given your Scraper a pretty thorough trial, in heavy clay soil and sonfy ground, as we'll as in light mold-and find it works as well in eu ery place as the Common Scraper and may safe ly say. that can build t,ciee as much road, and leave it in better shape-with greater ease to both team and holder, than with any scraper I ever used.
 J. s. KINNEY, Washington. With yoke of oxen and a boy to drive. I can scrape and finish up as much road in fys hours, as can with any other scraper known to me in ten hours, besides doing it easier both for myself and team. A. D. WATERS, Hartford. In our opinion, roads can be made and repaired with your Scraper, at a saving of at least one third of the expense of doing it with the old kind. It is no harder for the holder and far less worrying to the team.
 SAM'L. WRIGHT,
 E. H. WRIGHT, .. Milton. It is worth all the old scrapers that can be made. WM. S. POND, Milford. With the same amount of labor, it will do more work thap tEo common ones.
 NELASD LOOMS, Suficld It is t,cice as good as you recommend it.
 H. TUCKER, Rockville. Similar opinions of its superiority are express ed in a larger number of letters now in the pos- session of the Subscriber but the best test is, TRY IT.
