The attention of Farmers, Thresltermen, 
and responsible Live Agents, and Agricul¬ 
tural Implement, Dealers in all part, of the 
Country is invited to our 
Traction or Self-Propelling 
FARM ENGINES. 
By a simple but reliable attachment made to our Common 
Farm Engines, we are able to offer a Traction, or Sell-pro¬ 
pelling Farm Engine, which not only propels itself, hut 
hauls a Water Tank and Separator, or loaded Wagon, over 
anv road, up hill, or down, with the aid of one pair of horses. 
These Engines have been thoroughly tested three seasons. 
Three hundred oi them are now in use, and they have not 
only proved a complete success, but. have given such excel¬ 
lent satisfaction that, where introduced, it is with difficulty 
any other engine can be sold. They cost but little more than 
the common Farm F.ngine, and enable the threshermen to 
operate with from two to four less teams, and move much 
faster than with horses. They are simple in construction, 
easily handled, durable, and their advantages over the 
common Farm Engine are so apparent, rue are confident 
they are destined to take the place of other Engines used for 
threshing, or for any use where the engine and machinery 
employed has to be frequently moved. Circulars containing 
cuts, description, prices, and testimonial letters from our 
customers, furnished free to all applicants. Agents and 
Dealers will readily appreciate the advantages this Engine 
offers them. Agents wanted in every County in all the 
States and Territories.

Talks on Manures. 
By JOSEPH HARRIS. 
Author of '•'•Walks and Talks on the Farm'' “Harris on 
the Fig," etc. 
NOTICES BY THE PRESS. 
“Talks on Manures” is the title of “a series of familiar 
and practical talks between the Author and the Deacon, the 
Doctor, and other neighbors, on the whole subject of Ma¬ 
nures and Fertilizers.” It is from the pen of Mr. Joseph 
Harris, and its preparation has occupied much of his time 
during the past two or three years, and drawn largely upon 
the extended experience and careful study of many years 
preceding. Country Gentleman, (Albany.) 
The author of this work has long been recognized ns a 
writer of eminent ability on the subject of scientific agricul¬ 
ture. His “Walks and Talks on the Farm” is one of the 
most useful and popular works of its class published in this 
country. The rapidly increasing applications of scientific 
principles to farming will serve to render this work highly 
desirable to the farming community, as it is one of the best 
that has yet been devoted to the investigation of the impor¬ 
tant element of manuring yet published, 
Neio York Daily Graphic. 
Whatever Mr. Harris writes on Agriculture, will command 
universal attention, as a valuable contribution to the agri¬ 
cultural interest. Topeka Farmer, (Kansas.) . 
As a practical and plainly writtten book, the work is emi¬ 
nently a success, and deserves to be read by every energetic 
farmer. Homestead, (Springfield, Mass.) 
It contains a variety of facts and suggestions of great im¬ 
portance to practical farmers. Manure has been well repre¬ 
sented as a farmer’s capital. How to increase the stock, and 
how to save and apply it in the most economical and effec¬ 
tive ways, are the great questions with every agriculturist. 
This book throws more light on the solution of these ques¬ 
tions, than any other we have seen for a long time. 
New York Express. 
Practical information of great value to all cultivators of 
land is given in a series of familiar talks between the author 
and his neighbors, whom he denominates the Deacon, the 
Doctor, and other titles. Every agriculturist should get the 
hook and study It. Providence (R. I.) Press. 
Mr. Harris is no mere theorist, but a practical farmer and 
stock raiser, and knows what he is talking about. He goes 
to the very bottom of the subject, and gives reasons as well 
as facts. Newport Daily News. 
It treats the entire question of manures derived from all 
sources, and to he used for all purposes—whether top-dres¬ 
sing for grass, or for root crops. It deserves a wide pale. 
Evening Telegraph (Pittsburg, Pa.) 
Mr. Harris has treated the subject in all its-hearings; he 
has done it clearly, and fortified his facts with statistics 
and accounts of results which carry conviction with them. 
We can only add,—this book should be in the hands of every 
farmer, gardener, and horticulturist, and that it will take its 
rank as the standard hook of reference on the subject; it 
will return its cost many fold in new thoughts, and the sav¬ 
ing of costly experiments.
