Hodge-Haines' " Improved Single-Gear Header. 

 Wood Frame 



10, 12, and 15 FEET. 



POINTS OF SUPERIORITY. 



Frames all made of thoroughly seasoned hard wood. 



Center Pitman, thereby giving a steadier motion to the Sickle. 



Lever Balance Springs, instead of iron weight on lever. 



Self- Ad justing Reel. 



Long Guards, two inches apart. 



Sections on top of Sickle Bar, same as on Mowing Knives. 



Forty-inch Drapers. 



Rollers under elevator Spout, to roll on Header Wagon bed. 



Tight Bottom under Draper behind Finger Bar. 



Breast of Finger Bar ironed. 



An additional Roller in top of Spout, to prevent any grain from being 



carried down by Draper. 

 A New Clutch on Cross Shaft, by which the motion of Draper can be 



stopped at will, while the Header remains in motion. 



THE GENUINE MAINS' HEADERS. 



After twenty-five Years' Trial and Competition, still stand at the head of their class. 

 Are better made, more durable. Improved to keep up with the times and demands. 



The experience of merchants and farmers for the past ten years has fully proven 

 that Headers manufactured at the East are far superior as to quality and durability 

 of the wood, and smoothness and strength of the castings, to any Header made on the 

 Pacific Coast. It is an indisputable fact that Hodge's Headers, in point of durability, 

 are 50 per cent, better than any Header yet manufactured in California. 



We had intended to abandon the sale of this Wood Frame Header, but, after con- 

 sulting with many of our best dealers who advise us to continue their sale, we have 

 decided to show it in this catalogue, and to carry them in stock in the future. We 

 shall carry only a limited number, however, and orders should be forwarded early to 

 insure against disappointment.
