Dependable Through
Thick and Thin
- Above everything else
you want dependability built
into the grain binder you buy.
You want your binder to go in
to your grain fields, no matter
what the conditions may be,
find cut the grain with the least
possible loss of time and grain.
' We nre selling the John Deere
Grain Binder became we 'know it
will give you that dependable binder
service which makes it profitable
Investment.
From the bottom up it's a
tetter-built grain binder. Bigger
wind stronger roller-bearing wheels;
lieavler one-piece main frame widely
Japped and hot-riveted together;
titrong rigid platform; three packers
4nitead of two, assuring better
tiundles in alt kinds of grain these
re Just few of the features that
make It the frsf tr binder.
Another feature you will
appreciate on thla binder la the
easily-operated bundle carrier.
No effort to hold It in receiving
position or to dump it. Because
the teeth rlso out of the stubble
the instant you atart to return the
carrier, it's exceptionally easy to
bring it back? to receiving position. .
And it's no trick to keep this carrier
always in easy-working order simple
adjustments are provided to accom
plish this.
The Quick Turn Tongue
Truck adds much to . th effective
work of the John Deere. The wheels
turn faster than the pole, making;
clean, square corners poaaible. Be
cause the truck axle is flexibly
mounted, both wheels hold to the
ground no matter how rough the
field may be. This keep the binder
running straight, and takes off tho
side draft from the horses.

Ashland Granite Company
(Cut out this valuable information, it may not appear again)
Granite Testimony
Tho ASHLAND GRANITE COMPANT.
at Ashland. Oregon, has been incorporated
with au authorized capital stock of llio.
OOu In shares of $100.00 each, all common
stock. The purposo of this company li
to pun-hate 1 10 acres of land with the
machinery and otker equipment of tho
It la i ii Granite Company, en la rue the plant
and conduct the business on a much larger
scale and therefore to better advantage. A
ten acre tract on the railroad will be pro
vided for a manufacturing site.
In tlio past six years. Mr. Walter M.
Ulalr has sold over SGn.uofl worth of
pranlle. largely in tho following places,
Medford. KiiRene, lllllsboro, Corvallia,
The Dalles, and to seven dealers In Port
land, Orepon: Chehalis. Walla Walla. Be!
UiiCham, Olympta. tverett, two dealers In
Spokane and two dealers In Seattle. Wash
ington; Holse, Idaho, and In HeddiiiR ami
Yreka, California. This granite is there
fore well and favorably known in the
Northwest. It is conceded to be equal to
the best Kray granite quarried anywhero
on this continent.
At the instigation of AshUnd men. Mr.
Henry M. Parks. Director ot the Bureau
of Mines and ".oo!na:y at Portland. Oro
pon. visited tho Dlalr quarry and made
un official report thereon which is lu part
as follows:
"The stone in tho vicinity of the Blair
quarry Is part of a very large mass of
' granite which makes up the main part of
Ashland mountain. When first formed
the granite which we now see on the sur
face in the vicinity of Nell creek was
prohably thousands of feet below tho sur
face of the earth whero it cooled very
slowly. There is no question as to the
quantity of stone available in the vicinity
of the Blair quarry. It is practically un
limited. "
(Signed) 11KNRY L PARKS. Director.
Original letters containing the follow
ing extracts nre on filo with tho Ashland
Granite Company:
P. R. Hardy. Spokane. Washington.
"I do not hesitate to say that in my
opinion the Ashland granite ia fully equal
to tho Barre, Vermont, granite. There Is
no doubt in the world but It will prove
to be a great privilege to secure .stock
In this corporation within three years
after it Is organized."
E. C. Lake. Kugene, Oregon.
"Mr. Hlair has delivered to mo some
as flno granite dies as I could expect to
get from any granite dealer in tho east."
Ole Kure. Chehalia. Washington.
"I think tho granite Is very fine and
good, the only drawbasck to it is that I
can't get it when I want It."
M. K. Lewis & Co., Hlllsboro, Oro.
"I do not think there is anything ,
better than Ashland as to gray granite.
When I am sure of getting goods from
Ashland on time, then I will not order
any more ilarre. As to your Boiling all
tho output of tho Ashland quarries this
you will have no trouble to do."
F. H. Watts ot Watts Marble Works.
Tho Dallea. Oregon.
"I think It is a better granite than
narro. 1 havo decided to use the Ash
land granite altogether."
G. (1. Johnson, Portland, Oregon.
"1 do not hesitate to state that eou'd
Ashland granite be produced in quantities
sufficient to supply the market, the dealers
here would have no further use fcr P.arrc '
granite." ,
Frank D. AVeoks ot Spokane Monu
, . mental .Co., Spokane. Washington.
"Wo havo used poasiblyone hundred
small polished pieces last year and for
all purposes wo wished, it was very satis
factory. -.We aro Interested in senilis Ash
land granite placed on tho mark. it in such
shape us to insure prompt delivery of
orders so wo can depend on putting in a
; lino of it." , . '
John F.ddy Franklin of Washolli Coiuc-
tery, Seattle. WaahlnsUm.
"Wo think very well of this Ashland
granite and believe if properly pushed it
would take the place on tho Pacltlc const -of
the llarre Vermont granlto which has
been very popular."
W. J. Maslerson ot tho Ho lding Marb'o
Works, Redding, California.
"I havo used quite a lot ot tlio stono
(Ashland granite) some time ago and find .
it to be A-No. 1 stone."
Frank Vanlloosen, Corrallis, Oregon '
' "Will say 1 can recommend It (Ash
land granite) fully as good as Barre. 1
have nsed this granite for some time, and
I deem it first c'asa in every respect. 1
am sure a lot of tlnushed work on hind
at all times would be a big rwyinR Pixj"
hit ion and would mean lots of real tuU
newt. I am sure I would be glad to toru
all of my order your way." (
J. C. Bruchner of Otto Scbaman Granite
and Marble Works. Portland, Oregon.
-. "As one of the largest consumers in
this territory of granite quarried by the
Hlair Granite Co., we would be glad to see
the change made, and we are satisfied that
the property, if developed on large scalo,
would he an excellent paying proposition.
We claim that it outtanks the Vermqnt
product- With an np-todato equipped
quarry and finishing plant you will, with
