The " KarSy Rose " Potato 
A DECIDED SUCCESS. 
THE EARLIEST AND THE BEST. 
Iu presenting this valuable potato to the notice of the 
Agricultural Tublic again this Fall, it gives us great picas- 
are to be able to say that in every respect it has proved a 
decided success, and that the many assurances as to its ex- 
cellent qualities made to our customers during the past 
Spring were more than merited. It in from 10 days 
to two works earlier than the kk Early Gootl- 
rlcli," equally ns productive, greatly its su- 
perior in tabic quality, and produces fewer 
small tubers. The price last Spring was S3 per 
pound, or glSO per bushel.

THE LIGHTNING APPLE PARER. 
The unparalleled success of the Lightning Apple Paler is entirely beyond precedent. 
It received In 1867: 
THE FIRST PREMIUM at the Purls Exposition. 
THE FIRST PREMIUM at the New England Fair. 
THE FIRST PREMIUM at the Fair or the American Institute. New York City. 
THE FIRST PREMIUM and SILVER MEDAL at the New Hampshire State Fair, and 
THE FIRST PREMIUM at every other Slate, County or Town Fair, wherever exhibited without n single ex- 
ception. It also received the unqualified approval of dealers and consumers everywhere, and it is decidedly the simplest, 
quickest and best working Purer ever made. 
The American Agriculturist Bays of it : "We like the Lightning Parer for its simplicity and good work, two Important 
requisites in p\i'iy machine." 
The New Tork Tribune says : "This Is a surprisingly new device. A horizontal motion gives all the rosuilts attained 
by a circular one, and the fruit is pared with fewer movements than was supposed possible." 
Sold by the Hardware and Agricultural Tool Trade throughout the United States and Canada:.
