HUMOROUS 
This is the short, sweet, sorrowful tale 
Or Jessica Jenkins Jones: 
She planted a packet of seeds with pride 
While her dog looked on with his head on 
the side 
And thought, “She’s burying bones.” 
When Jessica left, ho dug like mad 
In search of the luscious bones, 
So Jessica's garden it doesn’t grow, 
And Jessica’s dog is cross, and so 
Is Jessica Jenkins Jones. 
—St. Nicholas.

sow.” Bocker: “Then I’d better plant 
my seed catalogue itself.”—New York 
Sun.

“Reasons Why I 
How a DAIN HAY LOADER and DAIN 
SIDE DELIVERY RAKE More than PAY 
for Themselves in One or Two Seasons 
H 
ERE are actual hay-harvesting: facts: 
' tne ‘ 
A pretty big- percentage of the hay-crop of 
the country is left in the field each season— 
And a still bigger percentage of the feeding 
value of the hay is lost in getting it into mow or 
stack—Lots of hay is left on the ground in shock¬ 
ing and fitching-out-oi-the-shock — 
After you’ve got your hay out of the field by 
hand- loading, you can mark the location of every 
shock and windrow by the loose hay lying 
around—That’s absolute waste. 
Another thing—either ItandA oading or the or¬ 
dinary loader and rake, shatter-off the leaves — 
and authorities all agree that much of the nutri¬ 
tion, the feeding value of hay, is in the leaf. 
Now, a Dain Hay Loader gets all the hay— 
either out of the swath or windrow— 
Two sets of raker-teeth gently gather all the 
hay from the ground and the elevating-fingers 
carry it up the elevator onto the load—well for¬ 
ward—where one man can easily handle it—It can¬ 
not drag the hay back off the wagon like the re¬ 
turn carrier Loader will do. And there’s 
No Bunching, Wadding or Tangling 
to make hard work for the man-on-the-load—or to 
choke-up the loader. 
The raker-teeth are ^//-adjusting, taking the 
hay as-it-comes. heavy or light—they can’t clog 
or get stopped-up. 
The Dain Loader is entirely free from compli¬ 
cated mechanism— 
802 
DAIN 
Vine Street 
And it is the smoothest-and-lightest-running— 
lightest-draft loader on the market. 
It works close up to fences and ditches— 
And over any kind of ground. It is hammock 
or swing mounted—which saves it from all "rack” 
and jar. 
And here’s the big advantage in using a Dain 
Side Delivery Rake ahead of the Loader— 
First, it delivers two swaths of hay upside-down 
into a loose, continuous windrow— 
And the loader following it will take up a load 
in half the driving or traveling necessary when 
loading from the swath— 
And then this rake, with its raker-teeth slowly 
revolving on a reel, leaves the windrow loose 
and open— 
Permitting a free circulation of sun and air 
through the hay, producing air -cured hay, pre¬ 
serving all the rich, nutritious juices, making the 
hay worth from 7SC to $1.00 more a ton. 
The Dain Rake has three sets of raker-teeth, 
which take the hay up clean without threshing it. 
These tools save enough hay in one or two 
seasons to pay for themselves. 
Both loader and rake are substantially and de¬ 
pendably constructed throughout— 
The name Dain on any hay tool assures super¬ 
iority at every point. 
Your implement dealer will show you how 
these tools “work”— 
Or write us—we’ll tell you about them.
