WORCESTER BUCKEYE :"

We are on hand again this year with car
load OF these well-known mowers; the
farmers are fast learning that the party to
buy machines from Is the one that sells every
year, and the same machine and always has
repairs for them and not the party that
handles one machine this year and another
next, or perhaps none at all and does not
feel under any obligation to keep repairs for
any machine. The above facts are reason
enough why they buy the Buckeye but there
are others, they are the most durable and
lightest draft machine made and warranted.
