Seven acres of com a day, cot bound, and ready
for the silo or shock—that's what you can do with
the John Deere Corn Binder, as compared with one
to one and one-half acres cut by hand. Besides, the
hard work is done away with.
John ©sere Corn Binder
It’s .an .easy job to oper-
ate the John Deere Corn
Binder. To dump the bun-
dles free from the path of the
horses, merely trip the foot
lever, and the power carrier
does all the work.
Another thing—the loose
ears and loose leaves are not
scattered—they are delivered
with the bundles, because the
power carrier is always in a
receiving position.
The quick-turn truck
is another special feature we
know you will like. This is
a real horse-saver. It takes
off neck weight and makes
turning at the ends easy.
Besides, the wheels hold to
uneven ground, which over-
comes side draft and prevents
sluing on side hill work. This
truck adds many dollars to
the operating value of the
John Deere Corn Binder.
For most effective corn-harvesting this fall,
get a. John Deere Corn Binder. A sample
is set up for you. Com© in and see it.
