" At Ihe trial of reapers in the harvest field in
Geneva, New Y ork, in July lusi, by the judge an
pointed by the Xew York State Agricultural
society, nine reapers wete entered, and each re
quired to cut about three acres uf wheat and two
of barley much lodged and tangled, the straw soft
and tough, on rough and uneven ground. Everv
facility was afl'ordid for a full and impartial IriaL
and examination as to draft, construction and per.
fcrmanee; and the first prize was awarded lo
I hos. D. Purrill fr the Best Grain Reaper.
1 he judges, in the report, say: 'T. 1). Burrill's
machine performed its work in the moat admirable
manner; the gavels were well laid, the workman,
ship and materials excellent.' It ha. no extra
wheels or pinions beyond what are simntv
sary ; no reel to beat down and waste the trrnin
no band wheels, pulleys, belts, stroiw, or harness.
