grass after it is spread. Wheels 4 feet high. Li slit draft for 
one horse. Its use enables the Farmer to cut, cure, and store 
away hay in one day, and adds 20 per cent to value of crop. 
A large fanner says: "Its use in a. single season will more than 
pay its cost. The enterprising Farmer will not, cannot do 
without it; the longer he puts off buying, the poorer he will 
be." Itis the most popular Harvesting Machine ever offered.

construction, neat aud accurate in workmanship, conven- 
ient to operate, perfectly adapted to cut on salt marsh, un- 
even hill-side or lawn. Those who have used it pronounce

HE CLIPPER MOWERS AND REAPERS. 
The great field trials at Sedalia, Mo., and at Xcnia, Ohio, 
in the summer of 18G9, 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 f eld, 
their claims of superiority for the Clipper Jfachi?ie*Qver 
all others. 
Its EXTRAORDINARY LIGHTNESS of draft takes one- 
third of the labor off the team. The adjustability 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 symmetrical In design of auv implement of its class. 
Farmers, the Clipper is the Horses' Friend, and you 
cannot afford to ignore their welfare. Send for pamphlet. 
Investigate, see or write to some one who has used the Clip- 
per. See the machine yourself before you buv any other.
