Silver's 

 Pony Blower 



is an inexpen- 

 sive Silo Filler for 

 the individual use of 

 the farmer who de- 

 sires a light power 

 Blower without any 

 of the disadvantages common to the fly wheel type of Cutter. 



The size and design of this Cutter makes it especially adapted 

 for general farm use in cutting all kinds of crops. It is very 

 compact and light; at the same time it is of ample strength and 

 capacity for filling silo.j and will satisfactorily operate with a six 

 or eight horse gasoline engine. 



Direct Suction Into Blower The construction of this machine 

 is a departure from former types of Blower Silo Fillers. The 

 material is drawn directly from the knives into the fan case by 

 suction without the use of any conveying mechanism whatever. 

 This feature has been thoroughly tested out through two silage 

 cutting seasons to the complete .satisfaction of users. 



Capacity is ample for silos up to fifty and seventy-five tons. It 

 will cut and elevate three to five tons silage an hour. "Where speed, 

 or liability of frosts, or a large force of men and teams are factors- 

 in the case, we recommend a larger machine. 



Feeding Mechanism with Friction Reverse The machine is 

 equipped wit.i the well-known "Ohio" Self Feed Apron and bull- 

 dog grip feed rollers all controlled by a single lever which stops, 

 starts or reverses the feed rolls and table at a touch. The reverse 

 consists of a wood friction mechanism and operates without the 

 slightest strain. 



The Drive Pulley, Cutting Cylinder, Fly Wheel and Blower Fan 

 are all on the 1 9/16 in. main shaft, utilizing every ounce of power 

 applied. Knives have cutting edges of high carbon tool steel, care- 

 fully tempered. Suitable guards cover the knives and other 

 moving parts. Fan Case is heavy sheet steel, electrically welded. 

 7 in. galvanized pipe is used. The machine has two knives and 

 four lengths of cut. "Ohio" Shredder blades for dry fodder are 

 interchangeable with knives. 



The machine can be furnished with or without special truck for 

 mounting. Send for printed matter on Silver's Pony Blower.
