large amount Of reapers, mowers, horse
rakes, &c. for the coming harvest. Amongst
them they have the Hubbard Combined
Reaper and Mower, manufactured bv
Younglove e. Massey, Cleveland, Ohio,
which is gotten up on an entirely new
principle, something that has always been
needed to make perfect combined reaper.
It has fast motion for moving and slow
motion for reaping; it is double geared, so
that when one part is at work the other is
not, and can be changed by the driver
by just shifting lever. 1t must be seen
to be appreciated, and all the farmers that
look ut ii Say il is "tLe" machine.
All Of the Hubbard Movers are made
with that gear this year, so that farmers

pilcity and durability Of it commendg t.
self to every one. 1t took the first premi-
um at the State Fair at Minneapolis last
fall, as also did the Hol]ingswo rth su.ky
Rake which they have for sale. They pro-
pose to farmers to put them in competition
with any other mower and rake made in
the United States, and keep the one that
does the best work.
The New Yorker Self Rake REAPER has
its usual large number of sales this year
with this firm. There are more of them sold
through the Sank Valley than Of any other
reaper in the market.
The combined Self Rake Kirby Reaper
was introduced by the firm through this
section last year, and comes well recon-
mended by all who have ever seen it used
as the ''Little Kirby" which is light strong
and very durable.
The Little Champion Hand and Self Ra-
king Reaper with separate jointed bar
moving attachment, is the lightest draft
machine in the world, cuts six feet in reap-
ing, four feet four inches in moving, and
is very simple and handy in raising or low
ering the cutter bar in grass and grain.
They have the j. I. Case sweepstaxe
separators with Woodbury. Mounted Power,
Climax Power and Pitts or Carey Power
manufactured at Racine, Wis. This
thresher has more sales by many hundreds
each year than any other machine made
in the United States, because it will 10
more and better work, thus making it a
desirable and profitable one for the farm
ers and also for the man who owns the
machine. This thresher with Woodbury.
power also took the first premium at the
State Fair last fall.
This firm has the largest supply of ex-
tras for all of their machinery that is kent
IN Northern Minnesota, as can be seen BIZ

through the house. It is best fer the
farmer to buy machine where he can get
repairs and extras for it when needed.

years ago, until now it is acknowledge
