May 25, 1907. 
HUMOROUS 
Little Jack Horner sat in a corner 
Eating a modern pie. 
In acids mopped, with borates topped 
And colored up with dye. 
—Philadelphia Bulletin. 
She (to fellow-listener at niusicale) : 
“What do you think of his execution?” 
He: “I’m in favor of it.”—Punch. 
“Frankie, dear, I don’t think you have 
washed your face and hands as I told you 
to.” “No, ma; but I’ve dusted them care- 
' fully.”—Punch. 
Professor (lecturing on hygiene) : 
“Tobacco, gentlemen, makes men ugly, 
short-winded, idiotic, paralytic; and I can 
tell you this from experience, for I have 
smoked for many years.”—Tit-Bits. 
Mr. O’Hare: “Qin’t you wait on me 
now? I’ve been here nearly half an hour 
—half a pound of liver.” The Butcher: 
“But there’s one ahead of you yet, and 
you surely do not want your liver out of 
order.”—Judge. 
“Tell me, confidentially, old chap — 
have you change for a $10,000 bill?” “I 
have, provided you can explain how you 
happen to be in possession of a $10,000 
bill.” “I’m not. That’s more money 
than I ever saw in my life. But I’d like 
to have you explain to me how you hap¬ 
pen to be in possession of $10,000 in 
change!”—Chicago Tribune. 
When you write advertisers mention The 
R. N.-Y. and you’ll get a quick reply and 
“a square deal.” See guarantee, page 8.

business hay loader, but not the kicking kind. 
Does not bunch, wad, tangle nor thresh hay, and does not 
elevate manure nor trash. Divides a swath—the only ma¬ 
chine for satisfactory cloverseed gathering. Works on hillside 
or level, in wind or calm. Carrier raises as load increases. 
Detach without getting off load. Light draft, strong and durable. 
Side- 
Delivery 
TEDDER AND RAKE IN ONE—BETTER THAN EITHER 
Does not rope the hay, but teds it into light, fluffy windrows so it air 
cures perfectly. No need for second stirring, which breaks up 
stems and leaves. It rakes clean and it requires 
no dumping. The easiest of all rakes to operate, 
a boy old enough to drive can do it.

It has no twisted chains, cog- 
gears, drums, cylinders, return carriers, long crook¬ 
ed crank shafts, or any of those things that com¬ 
plicate a machine and make it hard to handle and 
hard to haul. 
The Side Delivery Rake delivers two swaths 
in a loose continuous windrow upside down so that 
the sun and wind can get in their work and cure the 
hay without loss of quality or color. It leaves the 
hay in fine shape for the loader to come along and 
gather it up. We’d like to tell you more about these 
two good hay tools before you buy. If you’ll write 
we’ll send circulars describing and illustrating 
them fully. We are complete outfitters for hay
