tiwarded the Highest Prize for Best Work and Lightness of Draft over all other competitors. The Champion showed 25 lbs. lighter draft than W. A. Wood s Machine, 
and 46 lbs. lighter than the New Model Buckeye. Thus demonstrating for the thousandth time its superiority over all other machines. 
It is estimated by the most competent Judges that over one-half of the Hay and Grain Crop in the United States is harvested with Champion Mowers and Reap¬ 
ers. Information in every particular furnished on application to the Manufacturers.
