The most perfect, substantial and economical Farmer's Sheller ever built. ■ 



Bloomikgton, April 17th, 1860. 

 Mv. Tusac P. Atinater : 



Sir : — In answer to vour questions, I will state that since 10th November Last, I have shelled with the JfcQUISTOX TWO 

 HORSE POWER ELEVATOR SHELLEU, over 45,000 bushels of Corn, with less than $5 expense for repairs, and ray machine 

 is still in good running order and will probably slicll as much more. I have shelled, cleaned perfectly and sacked SO bushels 

 n one hour, and can doit any day with pood corn. AVould not sell my machine at any price, if I could not get another just 

 ike it. Two light horses have done all this shelling and kejit fat. I shell and car my own corn at an expense of one and a 

 1 cents per bushel. Yours respectfully, W>I. A'REELAXD, 



] Corn Buyer, at C. A. & St. L. Depot. 



Mr. JOSEPH LUDiyOTON, Corn Buyer, etc., at Depot of Illinois Central Railroad, Bloomington, says : I have shelled 

 about 40,0(K) bushels since 20tli November last, with about ^'i expense for repairs, running every day now. Ilave timed it one 

 hour and shelled 75 bushels. Common average of every day is 50 bushels per hour. It is the most substantial, durable and 

 economical Corn Sheller I have ever seen. Don't think it can be equalled. 



Messrs. Al'GLE & ALLER, of Bushnell, C, B. & Q. R. R., have shelled about 40.000 bushels since November last. 

 Machine still in good order and ^helling every day. Repairs have been trifling. Sheller and Power considered unequalled. 

 Sheila from 450 to 600 bushels per day, depending iq)on the quantity of corn got to it. Have never seen it fed as fast as it 

 would shell. 



Messrs. WYCKOFF & SHREVES, Bu.^hnell, have shelled since November about 50,000 bushels ; expenses for repairs not 

 to exceed f5; is in tip top order now and shelling from 500 to GOO bushels per clay. For economy and perfection of work, 

 have no idea it can be equalled. Have sold a number of machines in the neighborhood and never known one to be in any 

 way imperfect or incapable of giving the fullest satisfaction to the purcliaser. 



Mos=rs. COLE & WEST, also of Bushnell, have shelled with their machine 60. Ofl<) bushels since last November, and it is now 

 running every day, and from appearances, will shell as mucli more without any but trifling expense for repairs. Never think 

 of having to stop fur any break down or repairs whatever. Can shell, clean and bag just any quantity of corn the men will 

 put into it. 



Mr. TAYLOR, of Kewanee, has shelled .35,000 bushels since November. Don't think he has had any expense for repairs. 

 n.is run a greixt many Corn Shellers, small and large, lias never seen one before that he considered perfect in every respect. 

 Has never seen two men feed it to its capacity. Thinks it capable of shelling from 500 to 7uO bushels per day, if rightly 

 managed. 



And I might go on multiplying reports similar to the above, until it would cost me about as much to get you to print it as the 

 profits on the ICO odd imichines sold since last October would amount too. It will be understood that the above references are 

 to single machines, that is, one Sheller and Its Two Horse Power has done the work named. 



If there is any Corn Sheller in the State of Illinois, of any capacity, capable of doing as economical and perfect work, or 

 any Sheller of its capacity able to do as much work, with as little expense for repairs, I would like to hear of it. The parties 

 above named are all responsible gentlemen, who have freely made these statements and velunteered their names as references.
