 or platform. Easily adjusted and used by any 

 body, even a child. 



The Little Giant has received the first premiums 

 at the late Agricultural Fairs of Missouri, Ken- 

 tucky, Maryland and other States; and that in the 

 most complimentary manner; as well as the most 

 ready commendations from the thousands witness- 

 ing its performance.

 of feed per hour with one horse, and offered at the 

 low price of $44, all complete, ready for attaching

AS the new crop will soon be ready for market, 

 we beg leave to call your attention to the advan- 

 tages of our depot system for the grading and sale 

 of wool. Notwithstanding he disadvantages under 

 which we have had to labour during the past season, 

 on account of the dull state of the trade, we have 

 made sales of all that we have received, at prices 

 not only very satisfactory but exceeding any others 

 that we have head of, for wool grown in this State. 

 We therefore confidently refer all interefted to 

 hose from whom we have had consignments the 

 past year. CRENSHAW & CO.,
