grass cutters were good machines 50 years ago. They are better to-day, and if they are not the best machines in the world then we have not lived up to our
 opportunities, for these have assuredly been greater than those of any other manufacturer. Our immense industry was founded in 1881, when Cyrus Hall Mccormick invented and operated the first successful reaper. Sixty-four years in active business has taught us some thing new every year. We have not spent the time in guessing, but in mak- ing machines. All that time has taught
 us, we have applied to the Mccormick Reapers and Mowers. They were lead
 CTS 90 years ago; they are leaders to day.
 Interlocked and interwoven with the | bone and sinew of good harvester or
 mower there is lots of experience and | judgement, too, but you cannot get a | patent on them. In buying a McCor- mick machine, you not only get the ben l eft of our many patented Improvements, but you also get the benefit of all this experience and judgement. We have
 convinced the. world that our experi-
 ments and the conclusions therefrom have resulted in the production of line | of harvesting machinery which stands in
 class by itself, above and beyond all
 competition"
