The "Champion" Hay Press. 



Continuous Travel Steel Chamber. 



The above cut gives the reader a fair idea of the appearance of the Improved "Champion" Two-Horse 

 Continuous Travel Steel Bale Chamber Baling Press. This machine has been well tested and tried during 

 the past season in all parts of the country, and has never failed to give the be^t of satisfaction. 



In construction the "Champion" is new for a machine of this siyle, and has many points of superior- 

 ity that will at once commend themselves to the reader. The power is the easiest on the team, the most 

 simple and strongest, therefore the most durable of any full circle hay press power ever invented. In 

 principle it is a toggle-power, the toggle being operated so as to give a quick movement of the plunger 

 while the material is loose, but a slower movement as the density of the material increases, thus increas- 

 ing or compounding the pressure on the material as it is needed, with but little increase of draft on the 

 team. As proof of our claim that the "Champion" is the easiest on the team we do not hesitate to guar- 

 antee that one horse will make a heavier bale, without pulling as hard, than two horses can on many 

 other makes of full circle presses. 



AN AUTOMATIC FOLDING SPRING FOR TOP PLUNGER. 



In connection with a folder or comber at the top of the bale chamber, folds or tucks each charge, mak- 

 ing a smooth and even bale without breaking the material. 



A PERFORATED SCREEN BOTTOM 



Or grate, cleans the dust and dirt out of the hay as it is pressed. We do not hesitate to guarantee that 

 the "Champion" Baling Presses make the cleanest and most marketable bale of any hay press made. 

 In comparing the merits of full-circle presses 



REMEMBER 



1st. We guarantee the "Champion" power is the simplest, strongest, most durable, and easiest on the 

 team. 



2d. The',"Champion" is positively the only full circle press made, having a positive working automatic 

 device, that will withdraw the plunger full stroke each time, independent of the rebound force 

 of the material. 



3d. The "Champion" has the largest feed opening, and is the only press made with a condensing feed 

 hopper. 



4th. The "Champion" has an automatic folder and folding spring top plunger, insuring a smooth and 

 attractive bale. 



5th. The "Champion" is the most portable and easiest moved from place to place. 



6th. The "Champion" has the best constructed bale chamber, and the easiest operated and most effec- 

 tive mode of adjusting the tension and regulating the weight of bales.
