Any PlOw in the World.

Wecan appeal to every farmer who owns a
GILPIN and is familiar with other Sulky
Flows for the truth Of the following claims TO
superiority:
/. The pillow itselfis OF superior turning and
securing qualities, and the most durable Pillow
made.
O., Its powerful enables youth and old age
and crippled persons to pillow MS well ms the
best.
3, II requires no expert 10 start or run it,,
saving much expense to dealer and annoy
ance to farmer.
4. The one lever varies the depth, levels the
pillow Al all depths, and raises it out of the
ground, whle others cannot be leveled by the
use of two or more levers
3. The winglng device is the simplest aud
most effective, holding the pillow in any de-
sired position.
O. The wheels are provided with remova-
BILE chilled boxes running on wrought spin
dies insuring durability.
l. Our snlky rolling cutters are unequalcd
having chilled hubs and maleable bearings,
the most durable, strongest and steadiest
8. The experience of farmers and various
dynamometer tests have proved the Gilpin
Sulky TO be the lightest draft of any
g. While other sulkies having many splices,
loose joints, and multiplicity of levers and
changes, soon become worn and rickety, the
Gilpin, compact and strong, will remain firm
for years, and time and use have little or no
effect upon it.
10. THERE'S not another suky in the market
that is so highly priced by manufacturers, deal
ers and farmers
II. 1t has the strongest testimonials from
$4,000 farmers having them in use from one
to six Years, sale more than twice that Of
any other, and proof that it is held in far high
er esteem than any other suky pillow.
IL. The GlLPlN is the CHEAPEST Sulky
Plow made. II costs more TO build il and
takes more money TO buy il, but ii will LAST
LONGER, do better work and more OF it than
any other Suky Plow
NONE are found as cheap as the GILPlN
when subjected TO the true test of satisfaction
in using, lightness of draft, entire freedom
from breakage, and its great durability.
TIM Ely means of the power-lift on the
Gilpin IN patented Gevice) much more work
can be done ia day than with any other
pillow, from the time economical in turning
around.
LIGHT DRAFT. We fully warrant and
stand ready to prove, with dynamometer to
test same, that our Gilpin Sulky Plow will
carry II man and draw lighter than any riding
or walking pillow cutting and turning an equal
amount OF ground.
CHALLENGER hereby challenge
any Riding or Walking Flows to test drafts
with us. Victorious in all trials, receiving as
it did the First Premium at the last Rockville
Fair
Ee- We have just received carload of
the justly known Great Premium Vanisher of
all other Sulky Breaking Flows. TRY ONE.
If not entirely satisfactory, return it.
