I have invented the best turnip, 
carrot, and potato cutter in the 
world, because it is easier work¬ 
ed, more simple and durable, will 
cut twice as fast, and is only 
about one-half the price of others. 
I have also invented the best and 
cheapest hay, straw, and stalk 
cutters, both lever and self-feed¬ 
ing, for hand or horse-power. 
Can sell you a good, strong, dur¬ 
able cutter for $10 to $ 11 , that will 
easily cut, by liand-power T 20 to 50 
bushels of hay, straw, or stalks, 
per hour. Splendid horse-power sizes for $19 to $26. 
From tile Editor of flic Am. Agriculturist, 
February, 1870. 
We regard the Copper Strip Feed Cutter as decidedly 
the best as a hand Machine, and know of some stables in 
New York whose Power Cutters are set aside, and two men, 
in an hour’s time, daily cut all the feed for one hundred 
horses with a large size Copper Strip Cutter. 
I cut feed for 150 head of stock with a No. 8 Gale Fodder 
Cutter, and can do more work with one small horse and two 
men, than can be done in the same time with four Cutters 
like the National and Telegraph, with four horses to drive 
them. I paid $100 foy two of these machines, and have 
thrown them aside for a Gale, costing only $26, which makes 
light work of it compared with the others. 
J. B. BAKER, Thorndale, Chester Co., Pa. 
From JOSEPH HARRIS, one of the Editors of the Amer¬ 
ican Agriculturist. (Walks and Talks on the Farm.) 
Warren Gale, Esq.—Dear Sir: Your Turnip Cutter 
is just the tiling for slicing roots for cows and pigs ; it cuts 
very rapidly and easily. 
Jefferson Valley, (Westchester Co.), N. Y., Feb., 1869. 
Warren Gale, Esq.— Hear Sir : I have purchased a (No. 
2) Gale Vegetable Slicer, and tested it on turnips and 
potatoes, thelast of which mg son, six years old,can cut for 
nine head of cattle, at the rate of one bushel per minute. 
It is something I have long desired, and gives me perfect 
satisfaction in every respect. 
Yours respectfully, ISAAC REQUA. 
Children’s Home, (Marietta, Washington Co., O.i, 
December 80 th, 1874. 
Dear Sir:— The No. 8)4 (price, $19), Gale Junior Fod¬ 
der Cutter is received and has been tried. It is a superior 
implement and in my opinion is unrivalled for efficiency, 
simplicity, and the great ease with which it is worked. I 
would no't exchange it for the $30 Cutters for sale here. 
Bespectfully yours, W. O. BUTTS, 
Treasurer of Children's Home. 
You are not expected to pay for any of my machines till 
tried on your farm and found satisfactory. Some allow¬ 
ance made for freight. Feed Cutters delivered at factory
