THE ILLINOIS FA-HIVIEII. 



THE MqJimTON 8HELLER AND HORSE POWER. 



M A N U F A C T U RE D B Y J . C. C A R R . 



For particulars address ISAAC P. ATWATER, Sforris, Grundy County, Illinois. 

 Tho most perfect, substantial and economical Fanner's Sheller ever built. 



Bloomixgton, April 17th, 1S60. 

 Mr. Issac P. Aticater : 



Sir : — In answer to your questions, I will state that since 10th Novemher last, I have shelled with the McQUlSTON TWO 

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

 is still in good running order and will probably shell as much more. I have sheiied, cleaned perfectly and sacked 80 bushels 

 in one hour, and can do it any day with good corn. Would not sell my machine at any price, if I could not get another just 

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

 half cents per bushel. " Yours respectfully, WM. VREELAND, 



Com Buyer, at 0. A. & St. L. Depot. 



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

 about 40,000 bushels since 20th November last, with al)0ut |3 expense for repairs, running every day now. Have 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 Shelter 1 have ever seen. Don't think it can be equalled. 



Messrs. AUGLE & ALLER, of Bushnell, C, B. & Q. R. R., have sheiied about 40.000 bushels since November last. 

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

 Shells from 450 to 600 bushels per day, depending upon the quantify of corn got to it. Have never seen it fed as fast as it 

 would shell. 



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

 to exceed $5 : is in tip top order now and shelling from 50(1 to 600 bushels per day. 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 purchaser. 



Messrs. COLE & WEST, also of Bushnell, have shelled with their machine 60.000 bushels since last November, and it is now 

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

 of having to stop for any break down or repairs whatever. Can shell, clean and bag just any quantity of corn tho 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. 

 Has run a great many Corn Snellers, small and large, has 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 700 bushels per day, if rightly 

 managed. 



And 1 might go on multiplying reports similar to the above, until it would cost me about as much to fret yon to print it as the 

 profits on the 160 odd machines 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 p.irtics 

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

ALL PRIVATE DISEASES CURED 

 WITHOUT MERCURY. 



DR. VTRZTTXXIR 



Has experience in a^i forms of disease ; a knowledge quite In- 

 dispensable in the proper treatment of 



THE VENEREAL DISEASE 



In all Its varied and complicated forms, and has for years 

 made the treatment of private diseases his business and study. 

 Experience, the beiit of teachers, has enabled liim to perfect 

 remedies at once rfflcient, safe, permanent, and which, in 

 most cases, can be used without hindrance to business. 



Syphilis in all f< rms. Gonorrhea, Gleet, Strictures, Orchi- 

 tis, Diabetes, bladder and urinary diseases, syphilitic aflec- 

 tiuna of the throat, skin or booes, and mercurial diseases en- 

 tirely eradicated. 



Persons sufferin,' from self abuse, which produces some of 

 the following eQ'ects — blotches, bodily weakness. Indigestion, 

 constipation, aversion to, or uneasiness in female society, un- 

 manlincss, dread of future events, finally, complete prostra- 

 tion of the vital power, loss of memory, indolence, etc., etc. — 

 can l)e fully restored to health ; but on this head he (ieciares 

 plainly that the diseased condition differs in different indi- 

 viduals so widely that it is a matter of absolute impossibility 

 for any one specific to operate as a cure for all, and this state- 

 ment will be borne out by the experience of all concerned.
