PUBLIC NOTICES. JOSEPH NICHOLSON'S New Patent Double-speed Backdelivery REAPING AND MOWING MACHINE. The success of the above Machine has been unparalleled in the Colony, as regards the great satisfaction it has given to the agricultural community. only introduced late last season, the large number of testimonials received as to its efficiency, and the great number sold, show the estimation which agriculturists place on this new invention. List op First-class Prizes awarded in 1872. First Prize— Geelong Agricultural Show First Prize—Ballarat Agricultural Show First Prize—Clunes Agricultural Show First Prize—Smeaton Agricultural Show First Prize--(Silver Medal) Melbourne In* tercolonial Exhibition First Prize—Beaufort Agricultural Show First Prize—Gipps Land Agricultural Show First Prize—(Gold Medal) Dunedin Agricultural Show Judges’ Certificate-Longford, Tasmania, as the best Reaper for general purposes in the yard. To instantly obtain a change of speed, I supply my new Patent Reaper with aneccentrie bush on . ie axle of the main driving wheel j 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 its motion ; the eccentric bush having a lever attached which works in a quadrant with three perforations in it to receive the catch on the spring, and, by simply mov.Hg the lever to any of these 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 have been largely sold in Otago for ten years, the yearly increasing demand for them, and the hundreds of testimonials received from all quarters, and the best proof of their superiority. To prevent disappointment, orders should ba sent to me as early as possible. Catalogues and prices sent, post free, on application. Sole Agent for Otago— G. F.
