THE INFALLIBLE 
SELF-SEALING 
Fruit and Vegetable Can. j 
Our experience during the past years in 
manufacturing Self-Sealing Fruit Cans, 
and the universal satisfaction and cer¬ 
tificates of parties who have purchased 
and tested those of various makers have 
given ours the decided preference over 
all others. The subscribers offer to the 
public the best Self-Sealing Can ever 
invented, .to preserve Fruits, Vegeta¬ 
bles, &c. The sealing is invariably 
PERFECT. All others require solder 
or cement. The opening has been en¬ 
larged to admit a full sized Peach. 
Every Can is perfectly tested before it 
leaves our manufactory.

INFALLIBLE 
SELF-SEALDTGr FRUIT CAST, 
WITH BURNETT’S ATTACHMENT. 
Patented August 21, 1855. 
It has long been a desideratum to preserve Fruits by some cheap 
method, such as would keep them lit for domestic use, a num¬ 
ber of years. The expense of preserving with sugar is a serious 
objection. Free access of atmosphere causes the decomposition 
of vegetable matter. It is obvious that the exclusion of it must 
prevent this effect from taking place, and that, consequently, if 
Bernes, Fruits , Vegetables, &c. &c. are completely kept from the 
contact of air, they cannot spoil. To effect this, the only safe 
and reliable article is 
TAYLOR & HOGETTS’ SELF-SEALING CAN. 
It is so simple in its construction, that any one can close Fifty 
Cans an hour without the aid of a tinner; it requires neither 
Solder, Cement nor Wax. The article is very strong, and will 
last a number of years. The aperture is sufficiently large to 
admit a full sized peach. 
Apricots, Plums, Pears, Cherries, Peaches, Strawberries, 
Raspberries, Blackberries, Tomatoes, Green Peas. Green Corn, 
Figs, Asparagus, Rhubarb or Pic Plant, and in fact each and 
every kind of Fruit and Vegetable, can be preserved for years 
in their fresh state, in any climate. 
Quart, 3-Pint, Half-Gallon and Gallon. 
Trade supplied on liberal terms. 
Full directions for putting up the various Fruits and 
Vegetables accompany the cans.

GREAT SALE OF 
DEVON CATTLE 
Aia«l SonatSk ©o« SSaeep. 
On Wednesday, 9th of September, 1857, 
1 will sell at public auction, without reserve, my herd of 
Devon Cattle, about forty-five in number, and my flock of South 
Down Sheep, about one hundred, at my farm on Grand Island, 
two miles from the railroad and omnibus stations in North 
Buffalo. 
I have bred Devons for many years. The original stock were 
derived from the best animals, and for the last seven years my 
breeding bulls have been of imported blood, direct from Devon¬ 
shire, England, which, wirh several of my present cows, are re¬ 
corded in the English Devon Herd Book. All my herd will be 
recorded in the American Devon Herd Book, soon to be pub¬ 
lished, and are equal, probably, in quality, to any others in this 
country. The herd consists of about 30 cows and heifers, and 15 
or 16 bulls and bull calves. 
My South Downs are descended originally from the flocks of 
Mr. Ellman, the Duke of Richmond, and other celebrated Eng¬ 
lish breeders, crossed for the last seven or eight years with 
rams bred by the great South Down breeder, Mr Webb, of Ba- 
brahain, England. There will be 75 or 80 ewes, the remainder 
rams. 
As I intend malting a clean sale, this will probably be a 
better opportunity for purchasers to select animals to their 
liking than any other wnich will occur for some time. 
Descriptive Catalogues will be ready by the first of August, 
which will be sent by mail to all those applying to me by letter. 
Terms of Sale. —For all sums less than S100, cash; on sums 
of $100 and over, good notes at three months, on interest, paya¬ 
ble at bank, will he received. 
The stock will he delivered on steamboat or railroad, at Buf¬ 
falo. as may be desired, the day after the sale. 
Those wishing; to view the stock previous to the sale, will be 
conveyed to the farm by calling at my residence; and those at¬ 
tending on the sale day will cross the Niagara river between 
the farm and main shore by steam ferry from the omnibus sta¬ 
tion at Lower Black Rock, or North Buffalo, to whicli eitlur 
the omnibusses or rail cars will bring them from their stations 
in Buffalo. Sale to commence at 11 o’clock A. M. of the first 
day. LEWIS F- ALLEN.
