TJEGISTERED ROLLER MILL for Crushing 



IV Linseed, Oats, Malt, Barley, &c, and Breaking Beans 

 and Peas. Manufactured by E. R. TURNER and CO., late 

 Hukwood and Turner St. Peter's Foundry, Ipswich. 



E. It. Turner and Co. claim for their registered Roller Mill 

 the particular attention: of Agriculturists, Housekeepers, and 

 others. Besides accomplishing all the purposes of the well- 

 known Roller Mill for crushing Corn and Seeds, by an entirely 

 novel arrangement it is made to break Beans and Peas most 

 effectually, and without involving any delay in adapting the 

 Mill from one process to the other. They are very simple m 

 construction, and therefore not liable to get out of repair ; may 

 be worked with ease by one man, and for efficiency and cheap- 

 ness are superior to any Implement of the kind yet manufac- 

 tured. Price complete, 91. 9s. 



E. R. T. and Co. also manufacture a Roller Mill for Crushing 

 only, of the same size as the Registered Roller Mill, and a 

 larger Mill, for which Harwood and Turner were awarded 

 the Royal Agricultural Society's Prize at Norwich in 1849. 



Price of Small Roller Mill £7 105. 



Norwich Prize Mill for Horse, Steam, 

 or Hand Power 10 10 



Delivered Free to London, Norwich, Bury St. Edmunds, and 

 all intervening Stations. To Hull by water, and all places 



within 30 miles of Ipswich. 



A Discount of Five per cent, allowe d for Cash pay me nts. 



nUCUMBER and MELON BOXES 



Vy and LIGHTS. 



One hundred 1, 2, and 3 light Boxes and Lights of all sizes 

 ready for immediate use. Warranted best materials, packed 

 and sent to all parts of the kingdom ; 2-light Boxes and Lights 

 from 1 1. 45. Garden Lights of every description, Conservatories, 

 Green and Hot-houses, made and fixed in all parts of the 

 kingdom. References given to the Nobility, Gentry, and the 

 Trade, in most of the counties of England.— J as. Watts, Hot- 

 hoase Builder, Claremont-place, Old Kent-road, London. 



PERMANENT PASTURE. ' 



HENRY ROGER SMITHE, of Eastling, Faver- 

 sham, Kent, informs the Public that his mixtures of the 

 Natural Grasses and small Clovers— excluding no sort which 

 is proper to form a PERMANENT PASTURE, as the soil &c. 

 may direct— are now ready ; delivered on the railway free of 

 charge, at 11. per acre, allowing 3 bushels as seed for an acre ; 

 also Lawn Mixtures, and the sorts separate. They are gathered 

 under his immediate superintendence, and are quite new ; 

 this unprecedented low price last year, and the prospects of 

 agriculture, having created an unlooked-for demand. 



'rHE CONICAL BOILERS INVENTED BY 



JL JOHN ROGERS, Esq., are supplied and fixed by John 

 Shewen, ironmonger, Sevenoaks. Also all kinds of Hot Water 

 Apparatus. For Churches and Public Buildings, Mr. Shewen 

 should be consulted, his Warm Air Apparatus being safer, 

 more efficient, and more durable than any other. 



I RISH PEaT^CHARCOIlL^ "" 



TO FARMERS, AGRICULTURISTS, AND OTHERS. 



THE IRISH AMELIORATION SOCIETY beg to 

 draw the attention of the public generally to the fertilising 

 and deodorising properties of Irish Peat Charcoal. Mixed with 

 night-soil or sewage matter it instantly and wholly destroys all 

 offensive smell, renders it easy of manipulation, adapts the fer- 

 tilising properties as a ready food for plants, and enables it to 

 be transported by Railway or any other conveyance without 

 the slightest inconvenience. 



The extent to which Charcoal (carbon) enters into the com- 

 position of every article of agricultural produce, and the value 

 of night-soil as a manure, render any observations on these 

 points unnecessary. Mixed with night-soil, in about equal 

 weights, a most efficacious manure is produced at a very small 

 cost. 



Price of the Charcoal, ready for use, at Dublin, exclusive of 

 sacks, 355. per ton ; in London, Liverpool, Bristol, and other 

 seaports in England, 485. per ton, exclusive of sacks; or 60s. 

 per ton, sacks included.— Agents for the sale of the Society's 

 Charcoal have been appointed at several of the principal sea- 

 ports and Inland towns, a list of whom, together with all 

 other information, may be had on application at this office.
