PRICES OF COUNTRY PRODUCE. 



CORRECTED WITH GREAT CARE, WEEKLY. 



Joseph Greek & Co. at the New England Agricultural 

 Warehouse and Seed Store, Nos. 51 and 52 North Market 

 Slrcel have lor sale. Green's Patent Straw, Hay and Stalk 

 Cutter, operating on a mechanical principle, not before ap- 

 plied to any implement for this purpose. The most prom- 

 inent effectsCof this applicaliou, and some of the consequent 

 peculiarities of the machine are : 



1. So great a reduction of the quantum of power requisite 

 to use It, that the strength of a half grown boy is sufficient 

 to work it very efficiently. 



2. With even this moderate power, it easily cuts two bush- 

 els a minute, which is full twice as fast as has been claimed 

 by any other machine even when worked by horse or steam 

 power. 



3. The knives, owing to the peculiar manner in which 

 they cut, require sharpening less often than those of any 

 other straw cutler. 



4. The machine is simple in its construction, made and 

 put together very strongly. It is therefore not so liable as 

 the complicated machines in general use, to get out of order.
