II. ID. Smaliey, Aanitowoc, Wis:
The Buckeye Table Rake Reaper
and Mower | bought of you last season,
gives me perfect satisfaction. For every
part, think there is no better in the
WORLD. 1t makes the gavels or bun
dies so nice that / need no rake when
binding.
My winter wheat was heavy and
somewhat LODGED, but my Reaper cut
it clean and made good gavels. In Grass,
it will beat the WORLD. 1t is also very
hight draft. My advice to farmers is,
buy the Buckeye Improved Table Rake
Reaper and Mower Yours truly,
