The great bulk oftbo grain that is preduoed fa this vast opuntry is raised from seed sown in the spring, and hence tha wheat, oats, aad barley, are rasdy for- the sickle aboat the same time. The harvest time ia 'the west is tbe busy season of the year, and requires the utmost exertions of those en gaged is agricultural pursuits to gather it even the mechanics and laborers ind school boy's of the towns and oities are called on to assist in the great aad glorious work of gathering theripenedgrata. The demand for labor has been so great for a few years pkst, and the price so high during harvest, that it is not strange that farmers are dis posed to invest in. that kind of machine which they are told will accomplish the most with the least amount of labor. The ex cessive demand for help duriug harvest of l*te-years has stimulated the manulautm* ers of Harvesting Machines to devise some plan to save labor, and the result thus far is the application of self-rakes to Reapers and band-binders on the Marsh Harvesters. But all these improvements thus far have so complicated the machinery as to render them in a great measure impracticable. Having seen nearly ill these improved machines in use! which are claimed to save labor in harvesting, wo have come to- the conclusion that the hand-rake machine is far the best and most economical in secur ing a harvest, for,the following reasons: 1st. All the. self-rakers 10 the markets are very liable to get out of repair and cause much delay in qbnsequence, and nothing onuses' more v'eiation than. a..'break down in the harvest field, especially when the re pairs are difficult, as is generally the case with complicated machines. 2d. The grain most stand in good condition to out in order to do good execution with self rakers or with the Marsh Harvester. Tb« self raker that does good work one year, when thagrain all stands: upright, may utterly fail the next if the grain be comes kri11kled or lodged, 3d. But few of the self rakers cut .over,fivefeet wide, and cannot, therefore, do now or 4n&aa much as a hand rake maobine cutting six feet, and the draft is so much greater that a '^bgiate tm baMptstan(iit..M«i- work them without stopping to rest a good portion of the time. 4th. It needs a man of superior skill and judgTiem to drive tha teem, and manage a self-raker properly, while any boy or girl old enough to handle the reins cab do the drivingfora hand raker. Noif, we clalsithat "these objections to self-rakers ar» well .founded .aad are sustained by practicaV experienoe. We claim that a ma chine simple hi construction, not liable to got out ot: repair, that can always be do ponded on for a big day's work, that Will do good execution in every kind or condi tion of grain, that cuts six feet wide, that is bandied with perfeet ease with a single team, cutting from sixteen to twenty acres per day, is the machine to purchase. All those desiring such, a machine Will find that the Beloit Reaper and Mower, manu factured by Parker ft 8ton'o, of Beloit, Wisconsin is warranted tofillthe bill.

The business of thefirmie doubling it self each year, having been started three years sgo, until now it is acknowledg ed to be the leading house in the agrioal tural business of Upper Minnesota. Their large warehouse is crowded BOW with ma chines ordered by the farmers for this year, and as they never get on an over stock of the standard machines, orders should be given at once, so as to secure them to be delivered in time for use. 1 6 TS Groveoor A Co. are receiving now-a-daye a Urge amount of reapers, mowers, horse rakes, Ac for thecoming harvest. Amongst them they have the Hubbard Combined Reaper and Mower, manufactured by Youngloto ift Massey, Clerelaad, Ohio, whioh is gotten up on an entirely BOW principle, something that bae always been needed to make a perfect eombined reaper. It has a fast motion for mowing and a slow motionfor reaping it is double geared, so that whoa oao part is at work the other is aot, aad cat be changed by tha driver by! just shiftiag a lever. It must be seen to be appreciated, and all the farmers that look at it say it is "the" machine. All of the Hubbard Mowers are made with that gear this year, so thai farmers who do not have grain to out this year can get the mower, aad then get tha reaping attachment next year. ••_.-,• 'Ingle light mower they have the Meadow* King, formerly Theyer'e Iron Mow«r, which is all stool aad Iron except the tongue andffhiffletrees,and is so 000 Btructod that the pitman is always oa Une With the sickle, no matter how far the nut ter bar is raised or lowered.

They pro pose to farmers to put them in competition with any other mower and rake made in the United States, and keep tha one that dobs the best work. The New Yorker 8elf Rake Reaper has its usual largo number of sales this year with this fins. There aremoraof thorn aold through the Bank Valley than ofany other reaper in the market. The oombiaed Self Rake Kirby Reaper was introduced by the firm through this section last^ jeatft^oojiaB well recom mended by all who have ever seen it need as.the "Little Kirby" which is Ught strong and very durable.: The Little Champion Hand and Self Ra king Reaper with a separate jointed bar mowing attachment, 1s the Ughtost draft machine in the world,onto six feet in reap ing, lour feet four inches in mowing, and Very simpleand handy in raising or low ering the cutter bar ia grass aad grata.

This thresher hiss more sales by many hundreds each year than any other machine made in the United States, because it will do more and better work, thus making it a desirable audI profitable one for the farm ers and also for the mon Vho owns the machine.
