ably adapted for job work. Many 
J young men have bought them,

The great field trials at Sedalia, Mo., and at Xenia, Ohio, 
in the summer of 1S69, where the Clipper met some forty 
competitors, including all the leading machines built, and 
was awarded the First Premiums and Gold Medal— prove 
that the proprietors have been able to sustain, in the field, 
their claims of superiority for the Clipper Machine over 
all others. 
Its EXTRAORDINARY LIGHTNESS of draft takes one- 
third of the laboT off the team. The adjustabilitv of the 
finger-bar to cut high or low, without stopping the "team, is 
worth §25 on any machine. It is the only Mower that has 
the true center draft, in accordance with correct mechan- 
ical principles. In short, it is the lightest, the most dura- 
ble, the least complicated, the most perfectly constructed, 
the most svmmetrieal in design of any implement of its class. 
Farmers, the Clipper is the Horses' Friend, and you 
cannot afford to ignore their welfare. Send for pamphlet. 
Investigate, sec or write to some one who has used the Clip- 
per. See the machine yourself before you buv any other.

JOHNSTON'S PATENT 
SELF-RAKING REAPER. 
CHAMPION 
OF THE 
S -S7ST EEPSTAKES 
PRIZE. 
The most competent and practical Self-Raking Reaper 
before the American public is that of the "JOHNSTON 
PATENT;" infact.it is the only " ORIGINAL DEVICE" 
that is of practical worth for REELING and RAKING grain. 
It is the only Reaper that will save the entire crop when 
badly tangled and lodged. 
There is no grain that grows or becomes so tangled and 
lodged that this Reaper icill not cut, clean, and deliver in the 
most satisfactory manner. (By this we do not mean that it 
straightens the straw or lays it as compact as when stand- 
ing); otherwise ice mean all ice say. Its draft is about the 
same as that of a Light 4-ft. Cut Mower ; we make them to 
cut a 5 or feet swath; 15 acres is an ordinary day's work. 
A G feet cut was used the past summer by a man and an or- 
dinary span of horses, and cut 21 acres between sunrise and 
sunset ; it is simple in its construction, so much so that any 
boy or ordinary field hand can work it to its full capacity, 
or it can be worked automatically, as preferred. Wc manu- 
facture for the States of Minnesota, Wisconsin, Pennsylva- 
nia, and New York State cast of the Genesee River, except 
the Counties on the Hudson River ; and arc prepared to 
furnish Machines to the farmer or the trade. For other par- 
ticulars send for Circulars in pamphlet form.
