LARGE DELIVERY of CHAM
PION BINDERS, REAPERS
and MOWERS.

and MOWERS.
A carload of these renowned ma
chimes was due at Coburn last Friday
morning, but having been delayed a
long the road, did not arrive at the
station until in the afternoon. The
day was one Of the coolest and stormi-
est we had this winter, but in spite OF
the raw and unpleasant weather the
farmers turned out with their teams
bright and early, ,anxiously awaiting the
arrival of their machines. When they
finally reached Coburn at about 3 o.
clock, the work Of unloading and re-
loading was at once commenced and 1t
was nearly dark before the men were
ready TO start for home Many OF
them had come quite distance and
had to drive most cf that night.
The Champion Binders, Reapers and
Mowers are manufactured by Whitley,
Fassler Il Keller, ut Springfield, Ohio,
pr0prietors of one Of the largest estab
lishments Of the kind in The wo;ld.
Every part Of these machines, down to
burr, is made right AT their factories,
none but the best and strongest mater
ial is being used and their capacity for
turning odt complete machines Is one
every two minutes. The frame of their
new mowers, even to the bolts and riv-
cts, is manufactured Of pure steel. In
fact their harvesting ma chimes, after
fair test are pronounced the most dura-
BILE and serviceable in the country.
1t may strike our readers as extraor-
dinary that tweaty-four of these har
yesting machines are being delivered at
this early day and 80 far in advance of
harvest. 1t certainly shows that the
manufacturers and their general agents,
Messrs. l.. ii. Lee Il RrJ., Baltimore,
Nd, are wide-awake aud experienced
business men, who realiZa that the
great factors OF success are-''always
to be in time'and then lead in stocking
the market with the very best and
most satisfactory wares, dlesS OF
cost. Another reason for this early
aud large delivery is that these firms
have active and faithful agents in all
parts Of the country who are continual
" at work recommending and selling
their machines.
Messrs. Van Pelt, Shoop IL Co., of
Centre Hail, Pa, through whom this
delivery was made, are agents for the
champion Machines" in this county,
and farmers will always fad full line
Of repairs on hand at their shops.
These gentlemen are ably assisted in
this section of the county by Mr.. Hen
ry G.. Rnyer, of Miles township. who
by his untiring efforts has succeeded in
selling up to date over thirty of these
machines, aud this recent delivery Of
machinery is mainly due TO his energy
and activity.
Finally IN annexing the list OF farm
ers to whom the twenty four Binders,
Reapers and Mowers were delivered.
we would also say that these men, who
are among our most succ essful tlllers
Of the soil, display much progressive
spirit and enterprise aud seem to be-
lieve in modern improvements aud
timely preparation.
