ONE HORSE CLIPPER.

AS being ahead of anything Of the kind in the market
and not equailed in the world.
The Clipper No. cuts a sWath three and Il hal
feet WIDE has 30nch driving wheels, weighs 500 pounds
and has been designed expressly to be worked with on
horse.
| Great pains have been taken to make it perfect
possible in every respect, and to demonstrate that
mower be made that will work as successfully Will
one horse two horse machine with two horses.
The horse walks by the side OF the standing grass il
the track made by the swath board and for this
as easily guided as the horses are On wohorse ma
chine 1t is capable of cutting from one half to three
quarters Of hour with without frettins
| the horse, even in the hottest weather.
This machine was first brought into the market il
1s66 For the harvest of that year. fifty built
| sold. The First Premium Gold m eliaI at til,
great trial held at Auburn, N " July of that year
was awarded to it as the best Machine Of it.
The One-HOrse Clipper was the nehtest
draught Machine at the great trial of mowers he Id
at Amherst, june 1869, by the New England Agrcuur
The Clipper No. = cuts swah four feet wide, has
3oinch driving wheels, and weighs SO pounds.
This is SMALL compact, and strong machine, and cor
responds in size to the Wood and that class OF
known as the Junior machines. 1t works equally well
the heaviest grass and over the toughest ground
Though light it will be found very strong and durable
Weighing only $50 pounds it is very easily handled and
any other machine having the length of bar.
This machine has been carefully improved and strength
ened tor the harvest OF 1870 and we confidently
commend it to those who desire small two horse NOV
or. as unequalled by any in the market.
The Clipper No. } cuts swath four and quarter
feet wide, has 80 inch driving wheels and weighs g..
pounds
It was the pioneer Of the Clipper Wa cilines and
embodes the principles from which the other sizes
constructed Though it has been considerably modified
in detail the principles first adopted remain unchanged
The universal testimony in their favor is proof that
they adapted to the wants of the farmers every
where.
The Clipper No. cuts swath four and half OF
five feet wide, has 6 inch driving wheels, and weighs
20 pounds No harvester before offered the pub
lie has met such perfect this machine Aside
from the general excellence of the Clippers, rea
for the great success of this machine may be found
in the fact that we have been able to construct large
machine with high Wheels which at the same time is
light in weight and of very easy draught
Farmers who have used machines with both small and
large wheels appreciate the important advantages OF
sequentiy light draught
The large wheels cause it to steadily especi-
ally over rough and DOGGY ground, and make it the
1t has been demonstrated by number OF dynamometer
tests that the Clipper No. cutting a four and a
half five foot swath is OF lighter draught
the small machines of other builders which cut only
four feet.
An ordinary pair of light horses will work this
chine through the day, cutting four and half five
foot swath with the greatest ease.
This, as No B. is made also combined machine by
attaching to it dropper, to cut swath five six feet
in width.
These Clippers besides possessing the points of excel
ence found in some other two,wheeled chimes have
i'll addition, many valuable and important features dis
nctly and peculiarly their own among which are tho
