PUBLIC NOTICES. By Royal Letters Patent. OSEPH NICHOLS ON’S New Patent Double-speed REAPING AND MOWING MACHINE. To instantly obtain a change of speed, I supply my new Patent Reaper with an eccentric bush on the axle of the main driving wheel; and my driving wheel is constructed with two sets of toothed gearing of different diameters for driving the pinion through which the knife-bar receives in motion ; the eccentric bush having a level attached which works in a quadrant with three perforations in it to receive the catch on the spring, and, by simply moving the lever to any of those perforations, the machine can be easily thrown into fast speed, slow speed, or out of gear. It has also levers attached to both sides of the machine, so as to regulate the height required to be cut. The object of this improvement is to obviate the necessity of substituting one pinion for another in order to obtain a change of speed. The great inconvenience and loss of time that arises from this is perfectly well known to all practical farmers. Having succeeded in this long-desired object, I have secured my patent rights all over the world.

These "Reapers hj ave been large!y sold, in Otago for ten years ; the yearly increasing demand for them, and the hundreds of testimonials received from all quarters, is the best proof of their superiority. To prevent disappointment, orders should be sent to me as early as possible. Catalogues and Prices sent, post free, on application.
