The Deering binder has proved itself a good friend to so large a number of farmers in this neighborhood, and has proved its helpfulness through so many He years of successful service, that it has a good claim to consideration from any farmer who has any idea of buying a binder this year. Because of its repu- tation and years of service, we recommend the Deering binder to every grain-growing farmer. Don't buy a binder until you have seen the Deering, until you know its record, and until we have had a chance to present all its good points to you personally, Come in and see us. ave no hesitation in rec- im to other people in need Hoene Hardware.
