McCormick machines aro sold at ono prico nt all times, thev being all mado ahko and of the same material, are necessarily worth tho Nirao money, henco the company must ask nil people the same price. Iho price of a McCormick machine has no more to do with that of any other binder or mower than it has with tho price of bicy cles.

If their machine cost them as much money as tho McCormick does to build, they would surely ask tho samo prico, as thero is no company on earth tlmt can build machines any cheaper or hotter than lho McCormick Harvesting Machine Co. build thoirs. If you havo not bought a McCormick, you should place your order at once with your nearest agent for onb of the McCormick mach ines the best harvester and binder that McCormick over built, and a machine of which wo aro all justly proud.
