DEERIN G
BINDERS.

We invite the atten-
ton Of Farmers to the
DEERING Harvest
ing Machine for 1885.
Those intending to
buy a Binder should
not do so without see
ing these. Mr.. Deer
ing was the first man
ufacturer to build a
successful Irvine Bin
der. He was the first
to build and put in the
field what is called the
LIGHT Binders. hav-
ing built and sold in
1884, 5000 Of them.
Others are following
now but they are not
tried. If you are wise
and wish to be on the
safe side, AVOID Elk
.PERIMENT rs. and
buy the Machine that
went through the last
harvest without a fail
ure. We sold 1OLight
Binders here last sea-
son. We also have the
old stand by Stand
ard Deering Binder"
Six parts Of behring's
improved knot tying
device take the place
Of thirty parts used in
all Appleby pattern Of
Binders. Bear this in
mind when you think
Of the durability and
expense Of keeping
your machine in run
ming order. There is
another point that is
overlooked by most
farmers buying ma
chimes: " Where and
when they can get
their Extras" This is
very important to con-
slider, especially when
you break down in the
midst Of harvest. We
carry over $4,000
worth of EXTRAS for
machines we repre-
sent, and our mach
ines are made near
home; "a hours delay
will get extras should
we be out of them.
The country is full
Of machines offered at
reduced prices, made
away down East that
belong to this class
that have have no Ex-
tras in their town or
even in the state.
These fellows have
to sell at cut prices or
not at all. Everything
is against them. Keep
clear Of these objec-
tons, and buy the
