Blabon, N. D., Feb. 5th, 1917.
To Whom it may concern:-
On August 10th, 1916, l purchased from Mr..
A. L. Stewart, at Blabon, N. D., four of your SIT.
Minnesota Binders with the understanding that l
was to take out one binder first and give same a
fair and good trial and after this trial if satisfied,
was to take the other three. l can truthfully say that
l was we'll satisfied with the four Minnesota Binders.
l cut about 1900 acres this season with four Mime
sofa Binders and three old binders of another make.
This was a very good season to try out a binder in as
we had some grain that was very short and some
that had very heavy straw and then we had some
that was very badly lodged and for that reason l am
in position to know that the Minnesota Binders will
do work that lots of others that l have run would fall
down on. l found them very light running and could
not help but notice how easy the four horses walked
along with those SIT. cut Binders and l found that if
they missed and not tieing a bundle that it was the
fault of the twine. The truck on this Binder l think
is the best that could be built for a Binder truck,
they are so nice to turn corners with. Another thing
about the Minnesota Binder that l wish to state is
the we'll shaped bundles this Binder makes and the
bundle carrier is fine as it will carry it's full load
without bundles dropping off. And from what l
have seen so far the Minnesota Binder strikes me
that nothing but the best of material is used in its
construction as my repairs for the four machines this
season was NOTHING and that means that | did not
spend one single cent for repairs. l can honestly say
to those who are in the market for Binders that
they will never be disappointed il they buy a Mime
sofa.
! also bought a Minnesota Mower this season
from Mr.. Stewart and can say that l am more than
pleased with same as to light draft and will cut
very slow gait.

Although I did not get a chance to use the
Minnesota Binder that l purchased from A. L. Stew
art Of Blabon, N. D., in 1916 more than about four
days, l regard it as one of the best binders on the
market, it is easy to operate and easy to get around
to oil and work around in every respect, and it gave
perfect satisfaction in every regard. To binding, it's
draft cOmpOSeS similar with the llghteSt running binder
of other makes it does not pull near as heavy as
some. If it continues to give the same satisfaction
in the future l shall be perfectly satisfied.

Gentlemen:-
The Minnesota Binder which 1 bought from A.
l.. Stewart two years ago has proved satisfactory in
every way, 1 would take a Minnesota Binder in pre-
ference to any other Binder made. In flax it works
fine. seems to be geared just right. You have often
heard a farmer say, Give me a Binder that runs like
a Deering and make bundles like a Mccormack. l
would have just the kind of Binder l would like.
That's the Minnesota Binder it runs light and makes
SQUARE compact bundles. / recommen a Minnesota
Binder to any farmer that needs a new Binder because
it is a better binder and costs less.
Yours Truly,
JENS Wisely.
