| Be,rdTe Of Great FTdudS-THc Champion
| Machine Co. q Frnud-MdkeS False
| Statements to Push on their Machines
| on this C0Dl1Hullitg.
( / have lust had a circular handed me-
! puelishedb by the Champion Machine Co..
and Mower, Springfield, Ohio, stating that
!, J. c. BinfOrd, of MurfreeSboro, Tenn, can
| not furnish Champion Machines, nor have
| the right to sell the same, and that the man
| who buys of me is liable for damages, l
pronounce these statements false. / have
| on hand a lot Of Champion Machines,
| bought from the Champion Machine Co.,
| which will sell $40 cheaper than any agent
| of said machine In Tennessee, or at such
prices as deem necessary | have the right
| to sell said property in this or any other
State. | have also made my ARRANGEMENTS
| to get all the machines OF that make car
sell and would respectfully solicit tor The
same.
Said Company also states IN The same cir
| cular that the Champion has made a clean
sweep az mas pISce-that fifty Champions
have been Sold in Rutherford TO five Of ali
other machines during the season. Having
been an agent for the Champion Machine
FOR the past four years, and having sold ev-
cry Champion used In Rutherford county,
pronounce this > LIZ. There has never
been n9C-Q :han 10 TO Is Champions sold in
this county in any one season, .and 50 have
not been sold in four years.
/ This Company also claims that their ma
chine IS the only one in the world with
wrought iron frame. The Johnson Mower,
one of which can be seen in this place, has as
good wroughttron francois any machine.
The Champion Co. wish 10 Know how |
talked Il year agoo talked then the same
as do NOW. l claimed to have the best
machine that was aea in our marlIet-the
Champion And still say tile same thing,
that is haze the BEST machine Ho,C IN the market,
aan,elp The Superior.
Atthat time knew nothing of the Super
inr, Of l would have been selling il previous
to this year. When ] saw the Superior, |
was convinced that it was the machine,
and secured the agency for ii, determined
that OuSDeOnlp should have fbe IEsf al
that can't say the same thing for the super
ior, with clear conscience, doesn't know
what 1t takes TO constitute machine. l
have 800 for any man that can produce a
machine made of finer ntetctJ6, simpler ant Blt.
ter made, easier handled, tighter drof, and do
better .eork. thaY The superi0r.
These Points s AsSSs 0""s'i'- Tea
Ck AS h ne SSsEtla0A'N- gotten up by the
slmDf" .Cuine Company-they are
90 break down the reputation of the
I celebrated Superior. As you VIII see, Che
| Company also tries to ipiure me. But they
| have proved themselves frauds; therefore,
| their statements are not entitled 10 respect
| full consideration.
| Why does the Champion Machine Com
| many make false statements to try 10 bfeali
| down the Superior ?-because IL is a south
| ern institution, gotten up by southern
men, and has been victorious wherever
| brought in competition with the Champion.
! Who bore the highest honors nom the
| Grand Industrial Exposition at Cincinnati
| the last season ?-The superior. Inc Cn0m-
| MON, with all their efforts, never touched q
Hoping you will not be prejudiced by false
| statements but come along and get the No
! Brass Worm Wheel and Hammered Cast
| steel Screw, doing away with all cog gear
ing and unnecessary fixtures, remain.
