DEERE IMPLEMENT COMPANY. 



In presenting 

 our new Improved 

 Baldwin's Ameri- 

 can Fodder Cutter 

 to the dealers and 

 farmers of the 

 country, we wish 

 to call their atten- 

 tion to a few of the 

 different points of 

 the machine.which 

 makeit the leading 

 and by far the best 

 Fodder Cutter in 

 the market. 



1st. The wood 

 work is made of the 

 best timber, thor- 

 oughly seasoned, 

 and bolted togeth- 

 er so it can always 

 be kept firm. It is 

 not pinned togeth- 

 er with wood pins, 

 like most cutters in 

 the market, which 

 soon become loose, 

 and make the cut- 

 ter sliaky. 



2d. The iron 

 work is made of 

 the best wrought 

 and cast iron, the 

 boxes in which the 

 journals run are 

 babbited, thus avoi- 

 ding any possibil- 

 ity of their wearing 

 out; the knives are 

 made of the best 

 steel, thoroughly 

 tempered. 



3d. By a simple device the top feed roller is so arranged that it rises and falls according to the thick- 

 ness of the fodder fed into the machine, and at the same time is kept parallel with the lower feed roller, 

 which relieves all strain from other parts of the machine. 



4th. The Feeding Arrangement is the simplest and best in use, having only three feed gears, while 

 other machines in the market are a perfect mass of gears, which anyone acquainted with machinery 

 would see at a glance would be liable to get out of order and make a cutter run hard. 



5th. Bach machine cuts four lengths. The length of cut can be easily and speedily changed, and is 

 so simple that anyone can understand it. 



6th. The Improved Safety Fly Wheel for Power Cutters is far superior to any in use, insuring perfect 

 safety to the machine and the operator.
