Power for Extractors. 



We have finally found what we have been looking for in a 

 gasoline- engine to run our large- sized honey- extractors. They are 

 very reasonable in price, and simple to operate. 



They are economical, using but a quart to a quart and a half 

 of gasoline a day, per horse power. 



There is no waste of power, as a sensitive governor cuts out 

 both gasoline and batteries when engines are at their proper speed, 

 and charges are resumed as soon as speed slackens. 



As the engines are air-cooled and use no water there is no 

 danger of cracked cylinders in cold weather. They can be operat- 

 ed in any temperature. 



They are light in weight, and can be easily moved, and used 

 for a multitude of purposes, as well as for extracting. They are 

 the most satisfactory engines for running cream-separators, 

 chums, fans, sewing and washing machines, ice-cream freezers, 

 meat-choppers, printing-presses, and, in fact, all kinds of light 

 machinery. They are the ideal pumping-engines. 



They are made of the best materials, with as careful atten- 

 tion to details as the larger and more expensive engines. Each 

 engine is mounted on a board with tank and battery box, ready to 

 run. They are thoroughly tested before shipping, and fully guar- 

 anteed. 



Shipping-weight of one-horse-power engine complete, ready 

 to run, 300 lbs. Price $60, f. o. b. factory in Wisconsin, Medina, 

 or Chicago. In lunning a large extractor by power the ratio of 

 the gear should be one revolution of the reel to two of the crank- 

 shaft; and in place of the crank a flanged clutch- pulley or a pulley 

 with belt-tightener should be used. These attachments are worth 

 $5.00. Write for further particulars.
