THE SEYMOUR Si MORGAN 



SELF-RAKING REAPER AND MOWER COMBINED. 



WnAT Faemers say of it! — Extracts from Letters, &c. 



" It is simple, durable, and well made." 



" It not only cuts well, but rakes otT the grain splendidly." 



" The grain can be bound with three-fourths the labor that it 

 can when raked by hand." 



" My boy, fourteen years old, cut 170 acres with it this season, 

 and did the work better than can be done by the old hand-raking 

 reapers." 



" It mows admirably in all kinds of grass." 



"I bought one in 1S.J6, cut 210 acres with it, and sold it for 

 what it cost. Bought another in 1S57, which worked as well as 

 the first." 



Farmers! if you want to economize in these times, better apply 

 at once to us or one of our agents for one of the above machines.

 Machine and single Mower. The large sale the past season, and 

 great success at the National Trial of Harvest Implements at Syra-

 Medals, is conclusive to every unprejudiced farmer that it is the 

 most approved machine of the kind in use, and the subscriber 

 begs to say that they will be perfect and complete in workman- 

 ship and material, and are offered to them on terms accommodat- 

 ing and suited to the times. With each machine will be furnished 

 two scythes, two extra guards, two extra sections, one extra pinion, 

 and wrench. 



Warranted capable of cutting from 10 to 15 acres of gross or 

 grain per day, in a workmanlike manner.

 varies in price according to width of cut and its adaptation in 

 Biie and strength, to different sections of the country, from $125 to 

 $150, delivered here on the cars.
