AMI REAPER. 
For the Season of 1864, 
The scarcity and high prices of labor during 
the past season, caused a demand for Harvest¬ 
ing Machinery, much greater than manufactur¬ 
ers could supply. The fresh calls of the Gov¬ 
ernment for troops will take many thousand, 
more laborers from the country before tlie next 
harvest, and the farmer will have to rely almost 
entirely upon machinery in gathering his hay 
and grain crop. 
Farmers who were disappointed 
in procuring BUCKEYES, can 
avoid a similar disappointment try 
purchasing Machines this Winter. 
We are now prepared to take orders for Ma¬ 
chines of the various sizes.
