 . 



The' list 'of ditching and levee building ma- 

 chines given below contains a machine for every 

 class of drainage and irrigation earthwork. Each 

 machine is designed to do one particular thing

 machine can do it. 



The Austin Drainage Excavator is the only 

 compact, portable, practicable machine in the 

 world for digging complete in one operation a 

 ditch to templet with sloping sides .and true line 

 and grade. 



Irrigation ditches along a side hill are a com- 

 bination of up-hill cutting and down-hill embank- 

 ment. The Austin Side Hill Ditcher is the only 

 machine that constructs such ditches, cutting and 

 embankment complete in one operation, to any 

 desired cross section. 



The Austin Levee Builder is a machine for 

 building perfect levees. It excavates the soil and 

 deposits it on a perfectly shaped embankment 

 and in pulverized form so that it can be solidly 

 compacted.

 equally distinctive and unique, each for its. own 

 particular work. The full line comprises :
