SALES FOR 1886, 45,587 MACHINES. THIs record stands nnparalled. It is laid before the public ai the best erldsnce of the merit of the WALTER A. WOOD BINDERS and REAPERS. i This exhibit of Sales showing at once their volume and their marvellous growth, has always had, and must continue to have, an irreiistable influence upon the t judgment of the farmer m determining what make of machine it In pruotfcally and economically hli Interest to own. The best possible test of the merit of machinery is comparison. This Is the test - upon whloh we are satisfied to rest the claims of tho WALTER A. WOOD HARVESTINGS MACHINES. Eaoh year's addition to the record of sale* contributes to the value of the test. It will be seen that more than 45,000 machines have been placed m the hands of the farmers during last season, and it is everywhere known that these farmers unite (n the verdiot that the harvesters, binders, mowers and reapers tbat do the best work m the grain field and hay field, that are most readily understood and operated by the driver, that are most easily drawn by the team, and tbat last tho longest, are those that bear the name of WALTER A. WOOD, • aims which theie mtchtaeß have long made familiar m M civilised parti of the wold. DURABILITY OF THE WOOD MACHINES. Sales of repairs less than for any other Maohlnei. It is a fftot attested by agents who sell them, and by farmers who me them, that i Wood's Machines requires far less repairs than any other machines In use. No i other harvesting raaohinos are «b durable and free from breakages, '» { F.
