JOHN Port Perry, Nov. 23, 1876 OFFICE OF THE BROWN & PATTERSON MPG (0'Y. WwWMI1ITBY, ONT. ememm--------- T0 THE PUBLI1C. 1n presenting our Twenty-second Annual Catalogue of Agricultural Implements to the farmers of Canada for the year 1877, we do so with more than an ordinary degree of pride and confidence, from the marked favor and patronage conferred upon us, and the steady and in- creasing demand from year to year for our new celehrated Farm' Implements. We shall continue as heretofure. as manufacturers, to make a specialty of Agricultural Machinery--the Johnston Self-raking Reaper, the Triumph Combined Reaper and Mower, the Cayuga Mower, the Young Canada Mower, and our new Whitby Harvester claiming a large | share of our time aid attention. For the last twenty-two years we have given onr most careful and undidvided attention to the manufacture and operation of the various machines in use, sifting out the best points, remedying defécts, modifying and correcting errors, strengthening weak points, adapting and proportioning every part as our increasing experien ce has suggested. We employ only the best mechanical skill, and our machines pass under the mest careful supervision and scrutiny--every detail being subjected to the severest criticism--and each machine is thoroughly tested before leaving our works, to prove the completeness of «very part, wud there is no difficulty in putting them in operation by any person of moderate mechanical ability. i Our machinery has been selected and constructed with a special reference to the manu- facture of our own machines--many tools having been made for this particular purpose, and not adapted for other work, and our workmen are edneated up to the wants and requirements of our manfacture--obtaining a thorough knowledge of the construction of our machines, and are thus enabled to obtain a higher degree of skill and proficiency than where general manu~ facturing is carried on. We are, therefore, enabled to introduce a more perfect system into all the departments of manufacture, adding nat only to the perfection of the work, but also to the rapidity of its exe- eution--and a consequent reduction of cost. : = : This principle is regarded necessary in a well regulated establishment, and we are enabled turn out our machines with a higher degree of perfection, and at prices sodow as absolutely to to defy competition.
