following reasons -
l. 1t is the only quick geared machine that
has a steel plate in the guard, and flexible cut
ter-bar, both ends of which can be elevated to
pass Instructions.
2. 1t is the only hinged jointed folding-bar
machine that has the draft attached so as TO re.
lieve the drag of the cutter on the ground.
8 1t has tho strongest guards, which will
never break, and we hereby agree to furnish
gratui;ous all that break in use.
4. Both ends of the cutter-bar will conform
10 all inequalities of the ground, thus securinga
uniform close cut, which is not the case with
other quick geared machines.

premiums the most prominent OF which lase
Fall were the FIRST PREMIUM at the New
England Agricultural society's Exl ibition, held

Old, yet 1t Is termed city, and to all IN
tents and purposes Is a city. Think OF
a town having Post Office established
but four weeks, sending off in one day
1898 letters The Post office steps are
crowded on the arrival Of the mails as
but lew OF the large cities are. 1t was
our fortune to be in Ilthoio last week.
1t IS well enough to hear about Pitholoj
to learn that the roads between PlthoIe,
and IltusylIIe, Shaicr~ Miller Farm and
Plumer' are H,Iod with loaded teams from
morning III n'shtj put yet no conception
OF what 1t really IS can be mad except BY
actual occuIar demonstration 1t Is a
modern wonder Butltis reality no"
But few weeks ago, and one solitary
house was all there was. 10 day, hun
dreds Of houses are built in. process
OF building, and the general opinion Is
that the place contains over eight thous-

The amount Of oil being produced is
immense. New wells are being dcycl-
opcd every week, and the number in an
embryo condition is very many. One Of
the Sister wells, which is near the great
/ us well, is flowing now at the rate Of
1909 barrels per day, thus outstripping
the U. s. well some hundreds Of barrels.
It has the effect to inspire in one kind

The Twin well is more steady in is flow
and the great stream comes through the

but momentarily with a desperate heave
it comes crowding out, and strikes heavily
against the side Of the great vat, which
makes ones head dizzy to look into from
the top ofits covering. The gas comes
out in such quantities as to be seen curl.
