STILL AHEAD OI? ALL OTHERS, ANDJTHIS IS ENDOBSED BT^ THE BUTTING PUBLIC. SALES FOR 1886, 45,857 MACHINES. I^BIS record stands unparalled. It is laid before tbe pobHofaa the beat evidence cf the merit of the WALTER A. WOOD BINDERS and BEAPEKS. This exhibit of Pales shewing at once their volume and their marvellous growth, has always had, and must continue to have, en irreaiatable influence upon the judgment of the farmer In determining what make of machine it Is practically and economically his Interest to own.

Each year's addition to the record of sales contributes to the value of the tett. It will be seen that more than 45,000 machines have been placed id the hands of the farmers during last eeaeon, and it Is everywhere known that these farmers unite In tbe verdict that the harveatera, binders, mowers and reapers that do tbe beat work In the grain field and bay field, that are meet readily understood and operated by the driver, that are moat easily drawn by the team, and .that last the longest, are those that bear the name of

It is a fact attested by agents who sell them, and by farmers who use them, that Wood's Machlnee requires fa* lrss repairs than any other machines In uae. No other harvesting machines are as durable and free from breakages, F. FEEBIMAN, Ashburton, Agent.
