ygvHE UNION MOWER.
Wholesale PRICES

This is beyond all question the most desirable
Mower now in use, not one having failed last sea-
son among the great quantity sold. Price S120
for the foot machine, and $40 for the A. foot
machine.
There has been much competition between the
different inventors and manufacturers, in striving
to produce the most perfect machine. It is be-
lieved that each have gained some good points,
and that the God of Genius has somewhat equally
divided his favors. It appears to be the labor of
each successful manufacturer to convince the
farmers that his arrangement his gearing, guard
and knives, or whatever his alleged Improvement
may consist of makes his machine superior to all
others. It requires no argument to convince the
farmer that a machine combining, as the Union
Mower does, all of the important and valuable
features of the various machines, is the machine
for practical use.

Of this Mower are from gentlemen well known in
