81 had an easy victory yesterday at
fiold.trial at this place. There had
been a trial as early as last Tuesday,
May 23d, between the Marsh w hitney
and Osborne Twine Binders. the Nc
Cormick and Deering coming in the
field last Saturday to compete with
the Osborne, as the Marsh. Whitney
had been withdrawn. One of Mr..
Tompkin's men came here on Satur.
day, and got Mr.. Coleman {the farmer)
to hold decision until we could put a
machine in the field. Mr.. Tompkins
enpresseda machine from Fort Worth,
and yesterday morning we got it set
up on the ground. All the machines
were drawn by the same team, all ex.
cept the WOOD having two trials. I
then asked Mr.. Coleman it we should
hitch to the WOOD again. He replied
that it was not necessary, and then an.
nounced that the WOOD was his pref
erence, and that the Osborne was his
second choice. Mr.. Coleman then
bought and settled for the WOOD ma.
chine, paying cash in full. l wish to
state that we had only few moments
to adjust our machine, while the
others had a full day. When the deci.
sion was announced by Mr. Coleman,
silence reigned supreme among the
Appleby crowd"

ssWe have just closeda binder trial
between the Osborne, Beloit, Deering
and WOOD Irvine binders. We had
only half days notice Of the trial,
and did not get on the ground until
three o'clock in the afternoon, and
then had to set up our machine. As
soon as We arrived, the other men and
their machines left the field, and tried
to take the crowd with them. They
partly succeeded, but quite number
OF farmers stayed. Our machine work
ed to the entire satisfaction of all pres
emit, and was sold before we left the
ffield.''
