GROVER & BAKER MANUPACTURERB OP ELASTIC-STITCH AND `LOCK-STITCH' SEWING MACHINES L PREMIUM i 'W,047A The Grover -Baker Elastic-StitchMachines Will hem , fell, cord, bind , tuck, gather , quilt, braid and embroider . They are simple, durable, and not liable to derangement . They sew from ordinary reels, and no re- winding of the thread is necessary . They sew with equal facility all fabrics, the most delicate and the heaviest , and with all kinds of thread, silk , cotton, or linen; their seam is so strong and elastic that 'it never breaks even on the bias . They fasten both ends of the seam by their own operation . Their seam, though cut at every sixth stitch, remains firm , and neither runs or ravels in wear . Their seam is plump and beautiful, and retains its plumpness and beauty after washing better than any other . Their seam can be removed in altering garments , after proper instruction, without picking or cutting them . Watching and varying the tensions upon the threads , necessary in other machines , is unnecessary in these. The tensions being once adjusted on the Grover & Baker elastic-stitch machine , any amount ' of sewing may be done without change. They make beautiful embroidery , and are the only machines that both embroider and sew perfectly. Grover& Baker Shuttle or Lock-StitchMachines, Which are comparatively new, combine the good points of former shuttle machines with most important improvements , making them the most simple , perfect, efficient, and durable shuttle or " lock-stitch " machines yet introduced. Hence the universal favour and success of the machines wherever known. For all descriptions of cloth or leather work they have no equal. The Highest Premiums Over all competitors , both for machines and machine-work, were taken by the Grover & Baker Sewing Machine Company , in 1863 and 1864, at 31 State and County Exhibitions , in America , where all the other leading machines were placed in competition Upwards of 100,000 of these Machines are in use in all parts of the World.

GENTLEMEN,We would beg to again draw your attention to the following important facts, having reference to our SOLUBLE SHEEP -DIPPING COMPOSITION. First : We introduced it in the end of December, 1864, only twenty-seven months ago, since which time the sale has gone on steadily increasing, we having sold since then over one hundred and twenty tons, or sufficient to dip four million eight hundred thousand sheep ; we believe that this fact alone ought to stamp its value.
