THE NEW ZEALANDER TWINE BINDER, IN asking ouf friends to buy from Now Zealand Makers, wo would point out a for/ of the benefits which would accrue through so doing. Duplicates would be easier got and generally cheaper; and from the facilities at'our disposal—viz., our branches in different parts of New Zealand.—we can supply any parts of machines from any of these branches at an hour's notice; other makers may, and do claim to bo able to do this, but farmers find to their cost, and our experience bears them out, that it cannot iik done with impohted machines. We have known of cases where farmers with a broken down Imported Binder have had to wait a week during the busiest part of harvest time before they got supplied. Had such been a machine of our make, it would have been at work within a few hours. A'l parts of machines are numbered and accurately duplicated, and we challenge comparison with the best imported in that respect; and while asking farmers to purchase our Hinder, we may state that it is now generally recognised that our machine is at least as g?>od as the best imported, and much superior to many of them in every requisite of a serviceable Binder. )Ve append a few of the many Testimonials •received for our Binder; but the best Testimonial is the fact that last year no less than 43 were sold in one district alone. Tk Roiik West, Waipa. Aug. 11, ISS7. The Reaper and Binder I bought from yon last harvest made very good work on all sorts of ground. I cut some very steep sidling.*, the Binder sliding a foot at once, and at the same time cutting and binding a very neat sheaf. Isaac Hone;,son. Centre Bran, March 27, 188(5.' The Reaper and Binder I purchased from you this season has given me entire satis--faction. I cut and tied 110 acres in 11 days, and made a really good job. She tied well and left a good clean stubble, although some of the crop was very light, and other parts of it were good. I consider your Binder quite equal to any of the imported machines, and muck i.kjhter ok draught THAN so:,IK THAT WERE WORKING IN THE same paddock with me. 1 several times worked the same team of three hoises the whole day, although I had a spare team beside me. I had no stoppage from time of starting till I finished, and I am thoroughly satisfied that I have a really ! good and serviceable machine, and one that will last me a good many seasons.
