The tariff paid by farmers annually in the
shape of bills for repairs for their binders
and mowers would be very materially re-
duced If all farmers were able to get Cham
piOn binders and mowers. The expense for
repairs on the Champion amounts to almost
nothing.

The annual June Musical Festival of the
Detroit Musical Society will be held i'm that
city June 0 and 10. In view of the remark
able success of last year the society has
thought best to again engage the services OF
the renowned Conductor, Mr.. Z. S. Gilmore
and his famous band. The Grand Chorus
of the society is this year larger-now num-
bering 600 vOices-and will be heard t.
better advantage than ever before. The
society will be assisted by the vocal artists
of the Gilmore organization, all of whom
are brilliant singers of wide reputation, also
by a chorus of 500 children selected from
the Public Schools Of Detroit, whose per-
Torrance alone is worth going miles to hear.
1t is not too much to say that as the result
of the combination of these exceptionally
fine musical bodies the June Festival of 1890
will excel in attractiyeness, and prove more
thoroughly enjoyable than any of its prede-
cessOrs.
