Binds More
Sheaves with
Less Twine
Plymouth Binder Twine Is made
right. It works smoothly, ties
properly, and the last of the ball
feeds as freely as the first. No
knots or breaks. Fifty per cent
stronger than the strain of any
machine actually requires. j

Binder Twine
Is used more than any other twine
because it is known to be the
best Made by the oldest cord
age establishment in the United
Stales, where quality and honesty
are spun into every ball of twine.
Farmers who insist on seeing the
wheat-sheaf tag on every ball of
twine save money and avoid
harvest delays.
