To the Farmers of Addison County and
Vicinity
You are aware that for a considerable
time past my energies have been to the
devising and perfectng machine. the
object Of which is to tighten and facilitate
the labors Of the hay harvest, to make
what is now the most laborious part com.
paratively light and easy, and to render
us in great measure Independent Of the
precarious, inefficient, expensive, and in
many cases uttcrl Y worthless help which
we have been obliged to employ.
have spared no pains on all suitable
occasions to show you its operation. \
goodly number have witnessed its practi-
cal workings in the bayfield,, and many
more have seen ii on smaller scale as
shown at our agricultural fairs, and |
believe it to be universally admitted it is
well calculated to perform in neat and
workmanlike manner all it was designed
to accomplish.
The best interests Of the farming COM
munity demand that it should be placed
within reach of all The purchase of it
is profitable investment, as well for the
farmer who cuts no more than forty tons
ofhay annually, as for him who harvest,
much more, and he who cuts one hun
dred tons will save its cost every year.
The machine is light, strong and durable,
not liable to get out of repair and with
suitable care will last from eight to
twelve years, according to the amount Of
work done with it.
In order to induce manufacturers to in.
vest their capital and time "a its construc-
ton, all that is necessary is to make il
reasonably certain that the thing will
SELL To demonstrate this, have com.
menced taking orders for machines to be
ready for the next harvest and as an in.
ducement to farmers to order | PROPOSE
to furnish them at cost TO be delivered at
Middlebury, that is, am acting as agent
and shall make no charge for such ser.
vice.
1t is impossible for me 10 tell the exact
cost of the machines but will guarantee
that they shall not cost to exceed eighty
dollars, which is only trife more thar
the wages Of Il first class hand and hi'
board for one month the past season
The fact that money is scarce is an ar
gument in favor fyour having machine
Labor is equally scarce and likely TO con
tinue so as the population of our rura
districts is growing more and more Spars,
from the drain by emigration
/ Where is the farmer who is ready t,
give up his mower because the times ar,
hard? Only two machines were used tn,
past season except the one ! used, ant
they We're put ont upon trial Both thes,
gentlemen using them have ordered ma
chimes fo& their own use next season
