Which Way Do You Shear? 
It takes an expert to use the old hand shear well and the work is hard and irksome. It 
means tired, swollen wrists and aching back. It means second cuts in the wool, uneven 
shearing and, very often, injury to the sheep. Willi a Stewart Shearing Machine all that 
is changed. Anyone can operate it and do good work. It turns easy, shears fast and 
even, does not put any second cuts in the wool and gets from 15c to 40c worth more 
from each sheep than the hand shear. 
This Stewart Ball Bearing 
Shearing Machine No. 9 
has all gears cut from the solid steel bar and made file hard. They are all enclosed and 
protected from dust and dirt and run in oil. Every joint of the shearing shaft and the 
shearing head itself are filted with ball bearings. As a result it turns easier and shears 
faster than any other machine. Price of this machine, com¬ 
plete, with four combs and four cutters, is only .... 
It is the greatest sheep shearing machine value ever offered!
