Would respectfully call 

 the attention of Farmers 

 and dealers to the "Eagle 

 Fan." just the very thing 

 the farmer needs. The 

 best" and cheapest Grain 

 and Seed separator ever 

 offered in this market — 

 The supetioniy of this 

 Fan coiisiMs — in cleaning without a screen, by 

 separating the impurities, such as cheat, cockle, 

 smut, &c, by the blast alone, consequently, saving 

 the loss of the small sound kernels of wheat which 

 must go through a screen. 2d, An arrangement by 

 which a part of the sound and pertect grains are 

 separated from the rest for seeding, leaving the bal- 

 ance in a good marketable condition, so that the 

 farmer need sow only such grain as contains the 

 germ of growth 3d. Smaller seed, such as grass 

 and clover seed, are cleaned in the most perfect 

 manner. 4th. Fans built on this plan will clean 

 grain, both in the first and second cleaning, faster
