AMERICAN AGRICULTURIST, 
[July, 
BUILT EXPRESSLY FOR HARVESTING 
GRAIN, 
is now the most popular and reliable Reaper before tlio 
public. With the same Draft of a light 4-foot cut mower, It 
cuts a swath 6 feet wide; 15 acres is an ordinary day's work. 
It has been known to cut with a light pair of horses, 140 acres 
in 7 days. It is almost impossible for lodged grain to get 
down so low that this Reaper will not get it going either 
way. It is comparatively a mere pastime for team and 
driver to cut grain with this machine; any lad that can judge 
the size to make the bundle is competent to handle this 
Reaper; or if the grain is of even growth it can be made io 
work automatically. Wherever worked in competition it 
takesthe Premium from all others; in fact, nsnow improved 
for the harvest of 1869, it has no equal for durability, capac¬ 
ity, quality, or quantity of work. We manufacture for the 
States of Minnesota, Wisconsin, Pennsylvania, and New 
York State, east of Genesee River, except the Counties on 
the Hudson River, and are prepared at all times to furnish 
to order. For further particulars send for circulars in 
pamphlet form. Address

Improved Reaper Knife Grinder. 
Made by the Stevenson Manufacturing Company, 
Auburn, F r . Y. 
Having greatly improved the celebrated “ Stevenson Har¬ 
vester Cutter Sharpener,” we ask the attention of Farmers 
and the Trade to this perfect and indispensable machine. 
We have entirely changed the attachment for holding the 
Cutter Bar while being ground. Instead of lying loose in 
the hooks, as in the old machine, the knife is now firmly 
clamped to a swinging bar, which, while holding it secure¬ 
ly, is yet so arranged as to allow the edge of the section to 
be brought along its whole length, in contact with the cir¬ 
cular edge of the grindstone, giving a perfectly uniform 
bevel to the sections. 
This attachment is simple and perfect, and can be attached 
to any common grindstone frame. 
Price of machine complete, $10, on board cars. Thirty per 
cent discount on orders for 5 or more. 
Attachment, $3.00. Forty per cent discount where 10 or 
more are ordered. Address all communications to

It is claimed that the CLIPPER has more essential points 
of excellence than are found in any other Mower made in 
the world. 
Its mechanical construction and finish of its working parts 
are not equaled by any implement, of its kind. This, with 
our patented draft attachment, makes it one-third lighter in 
draft than any other Mower. It is the lightest, yet the strong¬ 
est, the most beautiful in design, vet the most durable, of 
any Mower made. Nearly one-fourth of its cost is for steel, 
with less than ten dollars of wood-work. Finger-liars and 
lingers are made of solid cast steel. We attacli to the No. 4 
Mower, for reaping, a dropper or hand-rake. 
An examination of the CLIPPERS will convince anv one 
of their superior merits over all others in strength, durabil¬ 
ity, ease of draft, and reliability for work over all kinds of 
ground and in every variety of grass. Confident, of this, 
w.e invite tliof^in want of machines to examine for them¬ 
selves before purchasing elsewhere.
