PATENT GRATER CIDER MILL. 



DANIEL LELANU havmg purchased the patent of the 

 above-named Ahlls, would call ilje attention of Farmers and 

 others in this vicinity, to the undersigned ceriilicates of their 

 merits, and feels coalident that they are superior to any other 

 lu use. for grinding apples. 



These MilU are drawn by one horse. Six, eight, ten, and 

 twelve feci wheels are used, some with one and some two 

 drums. They may be placed iu a building, and so fixed as to 

 grind upon the press, or into a trough, liie lolluwiiig ceriili- 

 cates will probably give the public some proof of their value. 



" Tins niav ceriily, that we the Subscribers have made use 

 of Joel Farnum's Patent Grater Cider Mill, for three years past. 

 We j^rind a cheese of cider la one quarter of the time we did 

 tu the old mill j it grinds belter, makes more and better cider ; 

 we gi iud upon the press, and save the shoveling of the pumice, 

 aud the juice may be extracted iu less time. 



John Clakk, "Id. 



Medway, August 3, 1833. James 1*. Clakk." 



" This may certify, that we the Subscribers have used the 

 above-named machine for three years last past, and approve of 

 the plan of grinding apples. We save one third part of labour 

 and time in grinding and laying up a cheese of cider. It grinds 

 better than the old mills generally do, the cider is clearer and 

 contains less sediment j the cider is pressed out in less time, 

 and the mills are kept in repair at less expense than the old 

 mills. Aakon Leland, 



Sherburne, Aug. 9, 1833. Joseph R. Lelakd." 



''This may certify, that I have assisted in the making of ci- 

 der in the above-named mills, aud consider it a valuable im- 

 provement in ihe making of cider. At one lime we gruund and 

 laid lip, apples sulVicient for eight barrels of cider, in forty 

 minutes, by the watch. We save one half of the lime, iu 

 grinding and laying up the cheese. 



Sherburne, Aug. I*, lti;i3. Jotham W. Rogers." 



For fiullier pariiculars, apply to J. R. NEWELL, Agricul- 

 tural Warehouse, where Mills are on hand or will be furiiished 

 at ihort notice, or to DANIEL LELAND, Sherburne. 



P. S. — D. L. will furnish the iforse Power and Mills, and

FRESH GARDEN SEEDS, 1834. 



The Subscriber is now daily receiving his 

 supplies ol Garden Seeds, growtli 1834, of which 

 arc various sorts of runup. Cabbage, Spinage, 

 &:c. tfec. It is the determination to send nothing 

 but what he is willing to warrant; a great proportion of the 

 vegetable seeds are grown in our own climate, and which are 

 much superior to the general run of foreign seeds. The varie- 

 ties of Turnip Seed now in proper season to sow, will be found 

 superior to any imported, with the single exception of Rula 

 Baga — one pound of well saved American seed is worth three 

 of loreign, for this plain reason, that the seed saved here (at 

 least what is grown under my direction) is li'oni selected or 

 transplanted Turnips, by which process every impure sort is 

 thrown out, aud only the ftiirest sorts saved — whereas in Eu- 

 rope they generally leave the Turnips in the field all winter, 

 which are often much injured by severe rains and spring frosls, 

 and cannot in the nature of things produce as pure seed as a 

 well housed root, and this is the reason why it costs us five 

 times as much to get it raised here as to import it j it is not ne- 

 cessary to slate who is benefiiled by it; certainljy die farmer 

 who depends on a full and genuine crop of this nutritive root — 

 someot the finest sorts and which are ol the quality stated, are the 

 large White Norfolk, Rula Baga or Russia Turnip; While Flat 

 Dutch. Red and Green Top, Yellow Aberdeen or Bullocks, 

 Yellow Stone. Swan's Egg (a choice son), Long Yellow 

 French : also, Long Tankard, or Rat Tail. Togedier with 

 several fancy sorts, as Yellow Malta, Garden Stone, Dale's 

 Hybrid, &:c. 



Conslanlly on hand, a full assortment of such Garden Seeds 

 as are adapted lo a VVest India climate ; assortments suitable 

 for the I-sInnU* of Bermuda, Jamaica, St. Croix, &.c. made up 

 on short notice; also, choice Flower Seeds, tor the same cli-
