McCOEMICK'S REAPING AND .MOWING MACHINE 



I Ail manufacturing 1500 Reaping and Mowing Machines for 

 1854, and fermers who want Machines are requested to send in 

 their orders early. Last year I had not a supply, although I had 

 1500 in the market. 



I offer my large experience (both in this country and in Europe) 

 for the last fifteen years and more in this business, as the safest 

 guarantee the farmer can have in the purchase of a Machine of 

 this kind. 



Deeming it useless to insert long advertisements in the newspa- 

 pers, I «ball be pleased to furnish applicants with my printed Cir- 

 cular. 



Some important improvements have been made, while the Ma- 

 chine will be found as simple and efficient as a Machine of the kind 

 can be. The important points that will present themselves in these 

 Machines, will be Perfect Simplicity, Ease of Repairing. DurabUity, 

 and Adaptation to the Wants of the Farmer as a Reaper and 

 Mower. I shall continue the use of the Wrought-iron Beam, which 

 wiU be found very important in mowing, because of the friction 

 upon the ground, and liability to tear and wear a Wooden Beam, 

 or anv sheet-iron lining that may be used upon it. Another very 

 important advantage which I claim for my Combined Machine is 

 that it can be readily changed so as to cut any desired height of 

 stubble as a Reaper or Mower by simply removing three bolts. 

 This principle will be found wanting in other machines, though 

 valuable upon rough ground, or for mowing barley or lodged oats, 

 timothv seed, clover seed, &c, or where the ground may not be 

 firm, and there be liability in the wheels to sink and the cutter to 

 be brought in contact with the ground, sand, gravel, &c With my 

 Combined Machine the former has the advantage of a Reel in 

 mowing, which admits of a slow walk to the horses, and is es- 

 pecially valuable when the wind interferes with the successful ope- 

 ration of the Machine. I have no fear of the result upon trial of 

 the Machine with others ; it has no superior as a Reaper or as a 

 Mower. 



The public are now especially cautioned to beware of SETjioirR 

 & Morgan's " New York Reaper." Th<»se men have been selling 

 mv Machines, though under an injunction the second time since the 

 re'-issae of my Patent in April last, in addition to a verdict of $20,000 

 for past infringements. 



J^° Sundry other parties will soon be held to strict account for 

 their infringements under this Patent, which makes them just as 

 liable to be enjoined as Se_vmour.& Morgan. 



The Machine wiU be warranted equal to any other, both as a 

 Reaper and as a Mower; and it will be forwarded to anv part of 

 New York or Canada, if ordered of THOS. J. PATERSON, at Ro- 

 chester, N. Y., who wants Agents to sell it in some of the unoc- 

 cupied wheat districts. C. H. McCORMlCK.
