WILLIS'S LATEST IMPROVED VEQBTABLK 

 CUTTER. 



ThiB machine suruasse.s all others for the purpose of cut- 

 ting Riita Baga, Mangel Wurtzel, and other roots The 

 great objection to oilier machines, is their cutting the roots 

 into slices, which makes it almust impossible for the cattle 

 to get hold of Iheni; this machine with a liltle alteration 

 cuts them into Ijrgc or small pieces, of such shape as is most 

 convenient for the cattle to eat. It will cut with ease from 

 one to two bushel- ofrool.'f per minute.
