Atkins' Self-raMng Reaper. 

 THIS machine is now offered to the public, and waiTanted 

 to be a good self-raking rc.Tper. It is also believed to be a 

 good mower, but not yet having been sufBciently tested in 

 grass (though it soon will be), is not warranted to be equal 

 to a machine made mainly or wholly to mow. 



The rakinz apparatus is of novel and very simple con- 

 struction, anil not liable to derangement, and every farmer 

 who has seen it in the harvest field, says it performs the 

 raking better than a man can possibly do if. 



Price of machines at Chicago, $175, of which $75 must 

 be paid im giving the order, $r)0 upon successful trial, and 

 f:5(t in note payable 1st December. 



The machines are most thoroughly built and warranted.

NOW KEADY, 



mNER'S DOMESTIC POULTRY BOOK. 



ORDERS received for over Two Thousand copies of this 

 book in advance of its publication, which is unprecedented 

 in the sale of any work ever issued on this subject. 



This is an entirely new work, and one of the most valu- 

 able books for practical uses that has ever been published. 

 In preparing it, the main object was to study the actual 

 wants of the Fowl-breeder, more than their fancy notions, 

 besides containing full directions for breeding, raising, and 

 keeping (he several kinds that come under consideration ; 

 when and how originated; a large number of cuts from 

 life, of some of the best breeds in the country ; prices at 

 which they are selling in the market; togetlier with such 

 other matter as was thought necessary. The varieties at 

 present are so great, that a book published five years ago is 

 now behind the age. This work contains a vast amount of 

 new and useful matter, and in the number of its illustra- 

 tions, great amount of practical matter, and its fine typo- 

 graphical execution, is ahead of any other work on Poultry 

 ever pubhshed. The book contains over 



ONE HUNDEED AND THIETY-FIVE POETEAITS 

 of the most perfect specimens of newly imported and native 

 breeds of fowls, and other cuts which have cost from $700 

 to $800 — being double the number found in any similar, 

 book, while the price is only one-half as much. The 

 names of all the new and imported breeds are given, so 

 that any person being at all interested in them, can here 

 find theur full description, origin, &c., &c. Eecollect 



only feftt cents 

 for the most complete book on Poultry ever published. 



Dr. J. C. Bennett, of Fort des Moines, Iowa, formerly of 

 Great Falls, N. H., author of "A Poultry Book," and one of 

 the most extensive breeders of Poultry in this country, to 

 whom the proof sheets were sent, writes: 



'■ No book ever published will compare with yours, as to 

 splendid and life-like engravings, and will unquestion- 

 ably be the best book published on the subject, and will 

 sell in preference to any other work. It iciU receive my 

 tintiring energy for Hsiale all over the United States, and 

 I have no doubt 50,000 copies will be sold the first year."
