Ketchum’s Improved Mowing Machine, 
WITH ENTIRE CHANGE OF GEAR, 
The only Successf ul Mower now lenoxon. 
K ETCHUM’S IMPROVED MACHINE, which we are 
building for the harvest of ’54, was thoroughly tested 
last season, and the advantages gained by our change of Gear 
are in all respects as we designed, viz: durability , conveni¬ 
ence and ease of action. The shafts now have bearings at 
both ends, which overcomes "all cramping and cutting away 
of boxing. A counter balance is attached to the crank shaft, 
which gives it a steady and uniform motion. Each Machine 
can be thrown out of gear; there is great convenience in get¬ 
ting at each and every nut, all of them being on upper side 
of the frame ; oil cups are attached to all the bearings, which, 
by the use of a wad of cotton, will hold oil for a long time, as 
well ■ as protect the bearings from dust, grit, &c.; the finger 
bar is lined with iron its full width, which protects it from 
wear. 
These and various other additions for strength, durability, 
See., makes it the most simple and perfect agricultural imple¬ 
ment in use. They weigh about 750 lbs. each, and can ea¬ 
sily be carried in a one-horse wagon. 
It requires not over ten minutes to get one ready for opera¬ 
tion, there being but two bolts, (besides the pole bolts.) to be 
secured, to have one ready for use. They will cut all kinds 
of grass, and operate well on uneven or rolling lands, or 
where there are dead furrows. This Machine took the high¬ 
est award, with special approbation , at the World's Fair; it 
also received, during last season, one silver and four gold 
medals, and various other flattering and substantial testimo¬ 
nials of approval. We have spared neither pains nor money 
to make this Machine deserving of public favor, and hope to 
be able the coming season to supply the great and increasing 
demand. 
We take this occasion to caution farmers against buying 
untried Mowers, if they do (as was the case with many last 
year) they incurloss, vexalion and disappointment. 
If any parts are wanted to repair any Machine we have 
sold, or may hereafter sell, they will be furnished and only 
manufacturer’s cost for the same, be charged. 
OCr* In all cases where extras are wanted, be sure to give 
us the number of your Machine. 
Warranty: —That said Machines are capable of cutting and 
spreading, with one span of horses and driver, from ten to 
fifteen acres per dayo f any kind of grass, and do it as well as 
is done with a scythe by the best of mowers. 
The price of the Mower, with two sets of knives and ex¬ 
tras, is $110 cash, in Buffalo, delivered on board of boat or 
cars free of charge.
