LIGHTNING PEACH PARER. 
A continuous and urgent inquiry for a machine for Paring Pearlies, lias been ringing in our ears from all Peach¬ 
growing sections, for the past five years, and in response to this universal appeal, the manufacturers or the Lightning 
and Turn-Table Apple Parers have at last succeeded in obtaining and securing a device for Holding and 
Paring Peaches, which is as practical and economical as the Apple Parer, and cannot fail to come into immediate 
and general use. They pare Apples also, as well as any Apple Parer. 
They were exhibited in the Fall of 1869, at the New York, Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Wisconsin, Minnesota, and 
St. Louis Fairs, and in every instance the judges were delighted with the rapidity and perfection of their work, and 
awarded them the highest Premium. A limited quantity of them has been made for distribution this year, in anticipation 
of the immense sale that must speedily follow. On receipt of $1.50 we will send a sample machine by Express.
