ed Reel, adjustable Pitman Connection, new
fitting Device, wrought-iron, stecl-faced
concave guards, 36-inch drive wheels, 6 foot

Mai Wharton, Clerk Washington County
Court, made at Springfield, May ID, 1877
| bought the Excelsior Combined Reaper
and Mower, made by Hoover Il Co., Miami
isburg, Ohio. in 1867, aud have cut fiom
thirty to sixty acres Of grain and grass each
year since. ] cut last season with my ma
chine As heavy tangled German Millet as
ever saw, some Of it six feet high Most Of
it was cut with the Reaper all but about
one acre, which we had to- NOW. Now this
in use ten year., aud have never seen any
machine except the Excelsior that would
do good work after five years use, and very
few Of them last that long. ! am satisfied
that the Excelsior has no EQUAL either as q
Mower OF Reaper. J. l.. WHARTON.
Here is another from Elias Barnes, Jr.,
Richmond KY: 81 believe it to be far su-
perior to any machine made. Will do more
work, run lighter, last longer, and is ea,ier
managed than any harvesting machine IN
the country. The Jointed Reel alone is
worth $50 to any machine, and no ether
machine has it. The high wheels get over
ground easily with one team. Last season
cut sixty acres meadow ana .n'r'y acres
gr in. No expense for repairs"
