THE SOUTHERN PLANTER. 



HARVEST TOOLS AND MACHI- 

 NERY FOR 1856. 



To the Farmers and Planters of 

 Virginia and North Carolina. 



GENTLEMEN— We have furnished many of 

 of you with machinery and implements for the 

 past twelve years, during which time many valuable 

 improvements have bt en made ; and being at the pres- 

 ent time probablv the largest manufacturers of 



FARM IMPLEMENTS 



IN THE WORLD, it is unnecessary for us 

 to say that we feel a great interest, and watch closely 

 all the new inventions in our line of business. As not 

 more than one in ten of the new inventions can be call- 

 ed improvement, we shall not offer to you any articles 

 that have not been thoroughly tested and found to be 

 valuable improvements. The machinery and tools we 

 offer you are manufactured at our Factory in Balti- 

 more, and are made of the best materials and in the 

 best manner, and as we have greater facilities for man- 

 ufacturing than any other hpuse, we are able to sell on 

 as at least as good terms, "it is unnecessary for us to 

 mention to you the great losses and inconvenience you 

 are likely to suffer by purchasing machinery that is 

 hawked and peddled about the country, and when re- 

 pairs are needed must be sent to Illinois, New York or 

 Massachusetts at an expense of nearly equal to the 

 original cost. 



We think we have for the coming harvest all of the 

 latest improvements in 



REAPERS, MOWERS, HORSE- 

 POWER, THRESHERS, &c. 



that are really valuable, and we can certainly please 

 any one who'will give us a call. 

 Among our stock will be found 



BURRALL'S AND MANNY'S REAPERS, 

 both of which have been very much improved. Also our 

 Premium WrougM-Iron Railway Horse-Power 

 and Iron Cylinder Thresher, 



which are not equalled for a Two Horse Machine. We 

 have also the latest improvement in Sweep Horse-pow- 

 er, for 4, 6, 8 or 10 horses, and warranted. 



For further particulars, see Catalogue for 1856, which 

 will be sent you per mail on application to

A thorough bred Stallion For Sale. 



For sale, at a low price, the thorough bred Horse, 

 John Bell — a sure foal getter, Of him C. F. M. Noland 

 of Arkansas writes: "I raised "John Bell," Boston 

 is his sire. The Pedigree of Boston has been pub- 

 lished a dozen times in the Register and Spirit. The 

 dam of John Bell was Lilly — she by Eclipse out of 

 Garland by Duroe. Garland was the dam of Port 

 Boy, (the Northern Champion when Bascomb beat 

 him), Fauquier and Suffolk. I run John Bell as one 

 of the very best bred horses in America. Lelly's Ped- 

 egree at full length has been published in the Register 

 and Spirit." 



This Horse is now ten or eleven years old, and in 

 fine health. He is the getter of large fine colts, and 

 can be bought at a very low price for a horse of his 

 blood.
