All the serious defects existing In other Automatic
Binders are entirely overcome in the construction OF the
Crane binder. 1t has been thoroughly tested during
the past two seasons, and is eXperimentwe invite
careful comparison with any and all other Self Binders,
and feel confident that for strength and durability ease
Of management ghtness OF draft and adaptAby to all
kinds and conditions Of gain the Marsh Harvester with
the Crane Binder will be found far superior to any other
in the market. ...
The rane Binder is 70 simple that any intelli,
gent farmer readily understand the principles OF its
construction and easily learn to operate it.
The inquiry for sell binders has brought into market
several new machines which as yet are and
we caution farmers before giving them orders for
Harvester and sell Binder to look well into the merits Of
the machine. BE sure to see the III h'rScster kiNg
with Crane self Binder Aiiachment before
you purchase. We have the best In the market, and
that haa stood the tests Of two harvest sea-
SONS.
We are constantly asked by intelligent farmers the fol-
lowing questions and for convenience to all interested
we give both questions and answers:
tlRsT QUESTION Has automatic binding 80 far ad-
vanced rs 10 be certain success and have your Binders
been thoroughly tested in the tiedf
AEswER--Yes our binder has now been tried several
years, Last year large number were sold and gave
good satisfaction Cannon 4 Deering will make sew
er thousand for this years trade, which they would
not do was there doubt on this point.
SEcoND--Wbat are the advantages automatic binders
have hand binding the use OF self rake reapers
ANslt requires two binders and driver to operate
Harvester and five or six men to work the Self Rake
Reapers. Our Binder requires but one person the
erand that, any old enough to drive the team.
II binds every straw without loss waste saving we
believe fully sufficient to pay the expense Of the wire
1t enables the farmer to do his harvest work with as
little help any other farm work. saves the extra time,
and the annoyance OF introducing strange help to his
household and table.
TiIRD much wire does it take per acre, and
there any practical difficulties in threshng, or feeding
to cattle straw that has been bound with wire
Ass-The amount of wire varies with the condition Of
the grain and the of the bundles but about
two and half TO three pounds to the with No. 90
WIRE It takes less Of No. 81 which is sometimes used.
Nh has threshinp feeding
the use OF wire and this prejudice has been entirely
moved by the experience Of the last few years Threshers
soon prefer the bundles bound with wire, and the
bundles larger and less liable TO be injured by damp
and moisture than straw bound bundles.
EouRTu-Ts your Binder simple in construction strong
and durabe and Is it easily understood and operated
ANs--To all of which we say, yes. Any farmer can
learn to use 1t with less trouble than he learned TO
