4 SOUTHER PLANTER.— ADVERTISING SHEET. 



W. W. DINGEE & CO., 



ARE manufacturing for the present season, 

 100 one and two horse Railway Powers and Thresh- 

 ers. Our powers are longer than formerly — the cops 

 of the pinions are chilled, which prevents them wear- 

 ing. The band wheel goes on either side of the Pow- 

 er : the platform has a covering of inch borders, and 

 the Power is mounted on a pair of wheels for conve- 

 nience of moving. Our Threshers are overshot, the 

 cylinder is entirely of iron, and will last a life time in 

 constant use. The boxes have self-oiling cups, which 

 keep the journals constantly oiled, thus preventing 

 heating and consequent wear. The wheels and gear 

 of the horse power are oiled by a similar device. The 

 shaker is driven by the main -belt, and takes less than 

 half the power used in the old method. The shaker 

 ;pulleys fits on the power, and may be used for ma- 

 chines requiring slow motion as a Corn Sheller or a 

 ;Straw Cutter. Our two-horse Machine, with 3 hands, 

 lis capable of threshing 175 bushels of Wheat per day. 

 The complete two-horse Machine will consist of a 



• double railway power, 29 inch cylinder thresher, a 

 .-shaker, 30 feet of India Rubber Belting, Fixtures for 

 ihulling Clover Seed, hooks for fastening the Thresher 

 ito the floor, a pair of self-feeding oil cans for the pow- 

 ■ er, wrench, oil can, and covers for oil cups. Price 

 .$145, delivered in Baltimore. With the one-horse 

 Machine will be sent a 24 inch iron cylinder thresher 

 and all the fixtures enumerated above. Price $125, 

 delivered in Baltimore. All work warranted.
