TTTE take pleasure in calling the attention of dealers, and s 

 VV who sell or use Ctdtin(j-B(W<'>t, to our improved Rooiikstf 

 Feed-Cuttek, a machine combining SlrenytA, Shnjilicity, an 

 UiiUi;/, in bo great a degree that it must commend itself to evei 

 man at first sight. It does its work with Ihc grentrst eajic an 

 rapidittj, cutting corn-stixlks, either wet or dry, with eqiial ea. | 

 as hity or xtrair. There is no chance for clogeing ; it is self-fee< 

 ing, cutting from flve-eighths to one ineh in length. 



An extensile dealer in Agricultural Implements, says of on 

 Feed-Cutter : " We consider it the most po-feci cntter made, an i 

 offer them to our friends with the fulleifi cojifide^ice." 



Our Cutting-Box is all that is claimed for it — has always take 

 the first premium at State and County Fairs — and deserved 

 stands at the head of all Feed-Cutters. 



Its simplicity, durability, capacity for cutting any kind of fodd( 

 equally well, its one knife, all confirm it as the most reliable Cu 

 ting-Box in use. As such we offer them to our customers, coi 

 vinced that they will prove the leading Feed-Cutter.
