Patent Improved Railroad Horse-Power and 

 Overshot Thresher and Separator. 



THIS Power &. Thresher, which has been so long before the 

 public, and given such perfect and universal satisfaction, 

 has met with such a constant and rapidly increasing sale, that 

 other manufacturers sometimes adopt headings similar to those 

 of my advertisement — and. in some cases, parts of the advertise- 

 ments themselves — which, if not observed, may lead to mistakes, 

 and purchasers may get, instead of the machine which has earn- 

 ed the reputation, one of a different construction. 



The machine has been much improved, and no pains or expense 

 is spared to make it in the most thorough and durable mannor, 

 as we have the greatest facilities as to power, room and materials 

 at our command. It is the cheapest, simplest, most durable and 

 portable set of machinery for the purpose in ude, and warranted 

 in every case to give satisfaction to the purchaser. For further 

 particulars see my advertisements in the agricultural papers of 

 the United States and Canada. Catalogues and circulars fur- 

 nished gratis on application by mail.
