NOT An Emery Wheel 
And Alundum is the most wonderful abrasive in the world, even hard 
enough to scratch the diamond. It is really manufactured precious stones, 
for it is made of the very same substances which go to make up the sapphire and the ruby. 
Alundum is the most perfect grinding substance known. It is just as much harder than 
emery as emery is harder than ordinary chalk. A grinding wheel made entirely of pulver¬ 
ized South African diamonds Avould not grind one bit better or faster than the genuine 
Alundum wheels which we furnish with this superb machine. 
Alundum is manufactured in the most terriffic heat which man has ever been able to 
produce. A heat so great that it will actually burn up a common brick like so much gunpowder. And 
in this incomparable heat is produced Alundum. It is the heat in which the worlds were formed. 
Every one of the beautiful irrideseent, needle-like crystals is so hard that it will actually scratch the 
diamond itself. It is these crystals which are crushed up and made into the grinding wheels. It is 
these inconceivably hard and sharp crystals which cut through the hardest steel more easily than the 
finest emery wheel will cut through soft copper. 
SAVES TIME — EFFORT — MONEY! 
You can do the same work in two minutes on an Alundum wheel that would take you at least half 
an hour on a grindstone, and do it better. And you can operate the Harman Special Farm Tool 
Grinder for half an hour with less effort than would be required in running a grindstone for two 
minutes. Alundum will grind 25 times faster than a grindstone and 8 times faster than an emery wheel. 
We want to prove these things to you at our expense. We want to send you the Harman 
Special Tool Grinder for a ten days’ trial right on j our own farm. See for j-ourself how it will grind 
and sharpen every tool on j’our farm. See for yourself that it is time to throw away the grindstone.

| j LASTING—BINDING—GUARANTEE 
Alundum wheels are so much harder than the hardest steel that no amount of grinding seems to 
have the slightest effect on them. Alundum will cut the biggest steel file you have in two in five 
seconds. We give a lasting, binding guarantee with our tool grinder. 
Alundum will NOT draw the temper from the steel! 
Alundum wheels will not wear in spots or become lop-sided. They 
will not glaze over. They- are not only hard, but they are equally hard 
throughout. There are no soft spots in an Alundum wheel. Alun¬ 
dum wheels will not draw the temper of the finest tool. The reason 
for this is that Alundum does not heat the article which is being ground as 
does an emery wheel or grindstone. Alundum cuts and cuts quickly—it cuts so 
quickly that the steel does not have time to heat.

Most Useful Machine on 
Farm 
I must say the grinder is far ahead of 
anything I expected it to be. No more 
hand power grindstones for me. When 
I want to sharpen anything I go and 
do it without chasing up the second 
party to turn the stone. Not being used 
to sharp tools, three of my family have 
slight mementos on their fingers and I 
touched myself slightly this afternoon. 
My boy calls it “Pop’s” bicycle. Very 
true that statement that you can use it 
365 days a year. I gummed a cross¬ 
cut, sharpened some knives and a 
hatchet. I am satisfied that it is the 
most useful tool or equal to any tool the 
farmer or anybody else has on his 
place. C. J. DOYLE, 
Orchard Farm , Westfield, Mass. 
If Farmers Knew, All 
Would Buy 
I don’t think any farmer would be 
without one of your grinders on his 
farm alter he has an opportunity to try 
one. I think it is the best machine of 
the kind I ever saw. The Hone that I 
received with my machine is the best 
stone I ever used, and I have used a 
great many different k ; nds. I have 
tried nearly everything that needs 
sharpening on a farm on this grinder 
and it has proven satisfactory in every 
case. EMRY BUNNELL, 
R. R. No. 1, Nevada, Ohio . ' 
Beats Anything I Ever Saw 
Your Grinder is just what every man 
that has tools to grind should have. I 
am well satisfied with the grinder. It 
beats any grinder I ever saw or used. 
Enclosed find check to pay for grinder. 
EBER DePON, 
R. F. D . No. 3, Ossian, la. 
Seven Days Enough to 
Prove Worth 
I have had the grinder just seven 
days and that is enough to show me 
that it is more than you say it is, and I 
have tried it on everything that I could, 
and it beats the old grindstone all hol¬ 
low, and I think you will make more 
sales around here, as there has been 
quite a few of my neighbors who have 
seen my grinder work. 
BERT LEWIS, 
Box 29, Larchsvood, Iowa, 
Would Not Take Twice Price 
After ten days’ free trial with your 
Grinder 1 can say that I am well 
pleased with it and would not take 
mere than twice the price for it if I 
could not get another like it. 
V. V. MAXSON, 
West Point, Miss. 
Another Man Who Knows a 
Good Grinder 
I received your Grinder the 15th and 
have given it a thorough test. It is 
much better than I expected, which is 
enough to say I am well pleased w ith 
it. 1 would not sell it for double the 
cost and do without one.
