Trial of .Binders.
EDITOR. EXPOSITOR,—DEA SIR,—I ask the
privilege through your paper to correct a report
that has been circulated through the county by
the agents representing the Toronto Binder,
that at a trial of binders on the farm of Mr.
Thos. Shipley, of Clinton, on Monday, the 19th
inst., they claim that they gained a victory over
the Brantford Binder; which is not correct, as
the sequel will show. Why did they bring in a
machine that had run" through the harvest of
1885, with an experienced man and team to
handle it, to compete with new machines out of
the shop just set up, if it was not to take an un-
due advantage ? Why did not the Toronto
agents inform us of their plans on Saturday
evening, that there was to be a test of binders?
We knew nothing about the arrangements until
Monday noon, and the machilne was at the
station. However, being equal to the emerg-
ency, we set up a machine' and started, avid
wound up by selling the Messrs. Shipley the lest
binder in the field, which the following letter,
by these gentleman, will sustain :
• S. A. Morrarr, General Agent.
P;S.—All we ask of an intelligent public is to.
examine these machines and see them in oper,
tion, and we have no fear of the result. S. A. M.
, CLINTON, July 22, 1886.
A. Hams, Sox & Co., Brantford:
CENTS, —As it is generally known that we have
had a trial of three binders on our farm in a very
badly lodged field of wheat, Viz. Dundas, To-
ronto and Brantford, and as we hadpartlyagreed
to try a Brantford, Messrs: Stanley & Cantelon,
agents for the Toronto machine; representing -
their binder as being a superior machine, and as
OUT intention was to purchase a machine, it was
open to all comers. We decided to give the
three a fair trial. The Toronto and Dundas
came into the field on the forention of Monday,
July 19th, the Brantford.being yet at the Clin- .
ton station, boxed up as shipped from the shop.
We brought it into the field, and Messrs. Moffatt
and Moon came at 1.30 p. in. and set it up, and
went into competition with the above named
machines. Mr. Moffatteave us the privilege of
taking our choice at the end of the test. We had
no hesitation in deciding, and took the Brant-
ford in preference to either of ..the other two.
One thing we thought wrong of the Toronto
men, they havint, brought in a machine that had
run through theharvest of 1885, with a practical
man and team to handle it, which we don'tthink
was a fair test, and also think it rather cowardly
of them to do such. We bought the Brantford,
thinking we were getting the best machine. We
have also heard that they claim that we bought
the Brantford because we got it at a lower price, -
but we bought it because we thought it the best
machine, and as we have had Six year's ex-
perience with a biller we thought ourselves
competent -to judge without a gang of Cantelon
& Stanley's friends. We inightavention that we
could have bought a Toronto inachine for the
same price, or perhaps less, as the agent insided
that we should make them an offer at our own
price which we -did not, as we did"not want that
machine at any price after seeine- the Brantford.
