N. B. The inventor having been informed* 

 fmce propofals for making the above-mentioned 

 machines have been delivered, that many people, 

 whof- concerns in the farming-way are fmall, are 

 very - '-"tous of having machines, for the above 

 purpt ~.j, of fmaller dimenfions and price : He, 

 therefore, to fuit them, and others, who rather in- 

 cline to have fmall machines, has, upon the fame 

 principles, conftructed a machine with which two 

 men, without any other afiiftance, with eafe, 

 may in ten hours fairly threfh as much corn as is 

 ufually eftimated the work of four men for that 

 time, in the common way of two threfhing to- 

 gether : And intends to make thefe fmaller ma- 

 chines by fubfcription, exactly on the fame condi- 

 tions with the large machines, except that the 

 price of them is only to be 22/. each, and the 

 part of that fum, which is to be advanced at the 

 trial of the machine (which will be at the fame 

 time the large machine is tried) is only to be 3 /. 

 The fmall machines, without difengaging any of 

 their parts, may be tranfported from one place to 

 another •, and will probably laft as long as the 

 large machines, .and may be kept in repair at a 

 proportionable expence. 



All Gentlemen, &c. who intend to encourage 

 this defign, by fubicribing, and have not an oppor- 

 tunity of meeting with the inventor, are defired to 

 acknowledge it by letter (fignifying at the fame 

 time which of the machines they chufe) directed 

 to him at Belford. 



Mr. Clarke s method of cultivating tur- 

 neps, is peculiar : He fows them broad call;* 

 and cuts them with a horfe-hoe> without a 

 mold board, into rows, fourteen inches 



afunder.
