N O statement which might be made in type 
could be more convincing proof of the 
superiority of the harvesting machines 
comprising the International line than is the 
world-wide popularity of these machines. 
You know the real test of a harvesting 
machine—the only test that tells—is actual 
work in the field. 
In the last half century more than two 
hundred different makes of harvesters have 
been put to this test. 
You know the machines that have stood 
the test and proven dependable, year in and 
year out—the machines that today are known 
the world over. 
Champion McCormick Osborne 
Deering Milwaukee Plano 
The popularity of these machines is not due 
to chance or luck. 
It is due to one thing only—that the men 
who originally built these machines, and the 
men who took up their work when they were 
through, have made machines that were right 
—machines that have always brought in the 
full harvest under all conditions in the quickest 
time—with least labor on the part of man and 
horse, and with the least trouble and delay 
from accidents. 
Today— 1909 — McCormick, Deering, 
Champion, Osborne, Milwaukee and Plano 
harvesting machines are more popular than 
ever before, because they are better than ever 
before. 
They are better because they have been im¬ 
proved from time to time in every detail of 
construction, whenever it has been found that 
any improvement could be made. These 
machines are built to work successfully under 
the varying conditions found in the harvest 
field. If the grain is down and tangled the 
reel and platform can be so adjusted that all 
of the grain will be cut and bound much the 
same as when it is standing straight. 
In the manufacture of these well known 
lines of machines great care is exercised both 
in the selection of materials and in construc¬ 
tion. All the bearings are easily accessible so 
that you will have no difficulty in oiling the 
working parts and giving the machine the at¬ 
tention which it should have in order that the 
full measure of success may attend its work 
throughout the harvest season. Every pre¬ 
caution is taken to furnish you with a machine 
that you can depend upon during the busy 
harvest time when delays cost money. 
It may be that you do not need a binder— 
but in all probability you need a harvesting 
machine of some kind—mower, hay rake, or 
hay tedder. If so, you should choose from 
one of the six leading lines of harvesting ma¬ 
chines. The mowers and rakes are just as 
standard as the binders. 
If you buy your machine from one of the 
six leading lines there will be no necessity for 
you to stay awake at night worrying about 
how you are going to get through your har¬ 
vest. 
When you buy a machine you would like 
to be sure that the principle of construction is 
correct, that the materials are high grade and 
that the workmanship is skilled—for these are 
the things that determine the quality of the 
machine. 
The harvesting machine question is not a 
small matter. If you make a mistake in the 
harvest field it is going to be costly. The 
ripening grain will not wait while you are 
skirmishing over the country to find some ex¬ 
tra part that is needed to repair a broken 
down machine. If you buy one of these 
harvesting machines you will evade such 
troubles. In case of an accident you can get 
all the repairs you want from a nearby Inter¬ 
national dealer, who always carries a full sup¬ 
ply in stock. 
If you are in need of a harvesting machine, 
it will pay you to look into the merits of these 
well known lines. 
For a full-value harvest you must have a 
dependable machine in dependable condition. 
Get ready now while there is time. When 
the grain is ripe will be too late. 
We urge upon you the importance of de¬ 
ciding this matter now, because if you put it 
off until a more convenient time, the chances 
are that you will never give the subject proper 
attention. You no doubt think there is plenty 
of time,—but the harvest season will be upon 
you the first thing you know. Therefore con¬ 
sider this harvesting machine question now 
while you have the time to give it proper study. 
Write for any information that you may need 
to help you make a wise decision. 
Ask the dealer for the catalogue of the 
machine you want. If you do not know the 
dealer nearest to you, ask us. 
From the International dealer you can get 
repairs that fit, if repairs are needed. Also 
the best binder twine—McCormick, Deering, 
Plano, Champion, Milwaukee, Osborne or In¬ 
ternational.

order early.
