Gkntlkmkn.— Ii is wttUgreal pleasure that we comply with 
your request In giving our opinion of your i'atcnt Flax Brake. 
\Ve have had it in constant use since last fall and rind ltdocs 
Its work Admirably. For Ingenuity ol construction, sim- 
plicity of working cnpnclty. anil tuue-ty to t lie operator we 
have not vet seen Us equal. Ucgnlrliig 1>nt little power to

Mallory and San ford : 
Gkntleuxn— You ask mv opinion In regard to your Flax 
Machine. I must say 1 am well pleased with it. i he Ma- 
chine has been In almost constant use since 1 received it Irom 
you about three months since, and I think it works better 
now than when 1 first started It. 1 can break from one to 
one and a half ions per dav of ten hours with your fto. 1 
Brake, 1 think 1 will get another of your Brakes this sum- 
mer. Yours, with respect, E. Traxlkb. 
BrkaKabeex, N. Y., April 25, 1S64. 
Messrs. Mallory and San ford : 
Gsntlemrv.— 1 have been using one of von r Flax Brakes 
the post winter, and have been so well pleased with Its work 
that I have purchased another Machine and thrown our old 
brake -tin entirely. One of the principal advantages ove* 
the old brake Is that it breaks the flax even all through the 
handful, so thai tlie inside ot' the handful Will BCutcll as easy 
as the QQtside, and leaves tin- outside fibre of the handful 
whole, whereas with oar old brake the inside f\f the handful 
would be so imperfectly broken that the outside will be all 
cut down to a point before the centre is clean ; we can break 
more with votir Brake than with our old one, and can scutch 
more flax taken from vour Brake than the old one, and there 
Is no danger from operating vour Machine. 1 consider your 
Machine a great success. I do not know how you could well 
improve the principle upon which it moves. 
Yours truly, U. L. Hl-gdson'.

These plants are produced from cuttings of bearing vines. 
The accompanying sketch of one of thorn will show tha 
they are not the mere Btraws so often employed, but mostly 
of large size. They are so grown as to ensure an abundance 
of Dbrons roots and thoroughly ripened wood. 
The testimony of those who have purchased them for the 
last two years is of the most favorable character. 
In consequence of the low price, their stock of Dclawares 
has for two years been bought up early in the autumn by a 
few persons. The proprietors wish them more widely scat- 
tered, and hope therefore, that those who desire to purchase, 
will send their orders early. 
In consequence of the great difficulty in growing the Del- 
aware the first year, nurserymen will find It their interest to 
purchase largely to plant lor stock. 
The Proprietors can also furnish 
100,000 
other HARDY GRAPES, Including Concord, Di- 
ana, Creveling, Iona, Allen's Hybrid, Adi- 
rondac, and other new sorts.
