The  Gem  Steel  Windmill — The  United 
States  Wind  Engine  and  Pump  Company,  of  Batavia, 
Ill.,  offer  one  of  their 
Gem  Steel  Wind  En¬ 
gines  No.  10,  double 
or  triple  motion,  price 
$00.  This  is  one  of  our 
most  valuable  special 
premiums  and  will 
doubtless  inspire  an 
earnest  competion 
among  those  who  de¬ 
sire  to  add  a  wind 
engine  to  their  farm 
outfits.  These  tireless 
workers  will  pump 
your  water,  saw  your 
wood,  grind  your  corn 
and  do  all  sorts  of  labor 
at  a  mere  nominal  cost, 
if  you  only  give  them  a 
chance  to  do  it.  They 
work  when  you  sleep 
or  rest — they  ask  only 
a  little  oil  once  in  a 
while,  to  keep  them  in 
order.  On  a  dairy  farm 
which  has  no  elevated 
springs  for  a  water 
supply,  they  are  indis¬ 
pensable.  Write  to  the  company  for  a  descriptive  cir¬ 
cular.  Their  recent  invention  of  a  triangular  steel 
tower,  is  a  great  advance  on  the  old  methods,  better, 
stronger  and  more  durable.  For  a  club  of  100.

Mann’S  Bone  Cutter — Among  practical  poul¬ 
try  men  there  is  but  one  opinion  as  to  the  value  of 
ground  or  chopped  fresh  bone  for  fowls,  nor  do  they 
differ  as  to  the  utility 
of  Mann’s  Bone  Cutter, 
counting  it  the  very 
best  machine  ever 
found  for  the  work. 
Mr.  F.  M.  Mann,  of 
Milford,  Mass.,  the 
manufacturer,  contrib¬ 
utes  one  to  the  list  of 
Rural  prizes  which 
will  be  given  for  a 
first  club  of  40  new 
subscribers.  There  is 
a  much  greater  value 
in  these  machines  than 
is  at  first  apparent.  If 
it  were  simply  ground 
bone  that  was  wanted, 
it  could  be  cheaply 
bought.  This  machine 
cuts  up  fresh  bones  from  the  butcher,  with  their 
meat,  gristle  and  marrow  adhering,  which  add  a  most 
valuable  constituent  to  the  food  of  fowls.  The  price 
of  this  No.  10  Power  Cutter  is  $26,  and  it  is  well  worth 
an  honest,  earnest  effort  to  win.  Write  to  Mr.  Mann 
for  any  particulars  that  are  needed.

Spraying  Apparatus — He  who  attempts  to 
grow  fruits  nowadays  without  a  spraying  outfit,  goes 
into  the  work  handicapped.  Blight  and  bugs,  rot  and 
rust,  mold  and  mildew 
— all  conspire  to  dam¬ 
age  the  crop,  and  in  all 
cases  succeed  to  a 
greater  or  less  extent 
if  the  horticulturist 
does  not  spray.  The 
very  best  goods  in  this 
line  are  made  by  the 
Field  Force  Pump  Com¬ 
pany,  of  Lockport, 
N.  Y  ,  and  they  offer 
for  a  “first  ’’club  of 
only  25  new  subscrib¬ 
ers  one  of  the  Garfield 
Knapsack  Sprayers,  worth  $14  ;  and  for  a  club  of  18 
new  subscribers  a  Perfection  Barrel  Sprayer,  worth 
$9  50.  All  who  have  used  the  sprayers  from  this  firm 
unite  in  praising  them  heartily.  They  must  form  a 
part  of  the  outfit  of  every  successful  fruit  grower  to¬ 
day.  Pamphlets  will  accompany  them  giving  in  con¬ 
cise  form  formulas  for  all  the  best  spraying  com¬ 
pounds,  or  any  reader  of  The  R.  N.-Y.  will  receive  one 
on  application  at  any  time.

Modern  Hot  Water  and  Steam  Heating. 
— For  house,  office,  conservatory  or  greenhouse.  Few 
people  are  aware  of  the  comfort  and  luxury  of  living 
in  a  home  warmed  by  the  modern  hot  water  or  steam 
system.  There  is  no  dust,  no  gas,  no  noise,  but  per¬ 
fect  and  uniform  temperature  throughout  the  house, 
uo  matter  what  may  be  the  weather  outside.  We 
have  made  arrangements  with  the  Herendeen  Manu¬ 
facturing  Company,  of  Geneva,  N.  Y.,  manufacturers

“Faultless  Fur¬

heating  by  hot 
water  or  steam, 
whereby  we  are 
enabled  to  offer 
these  boilers  to 
our  friends  on  es¬ 
pecially  favorable 
terms.  Fora“first”

ers  ;  for  50,  $75  ;  for  100,  a  reduction  of  $175  ;  for  150 
new  names  a  reduction  of  $250  on  one  of  the  larger 
boilers.  Here  is  a  splendid  chance  to  start  that  new 
greenhouse.  The  Furman  boilers  have  a  high  reputa¬ 
tion  for  durability,  staunchness  and  safety  ard  are 
great  coal  savers  ;  are  made  entirely  of  cast  iron  with 
lathe-screwed  joints.  They  contain  no  packing  to  give 
out  or  leak.  As  easily  run  as  a  parlor  stove  and  econom¬ 
ical  as  to  fuel.  The  manufacturers  will  mail  gratis  to

ing  and  Ventilation,”  containing  opinions  of  experts  ;

Two  Acme  Harrows,  New  Style. — 
Mr.  Nash  says  :  “  The  ‘  Acme  ’  is  but  a  complete  pul¬ 
verizing  harrow,  clod  crusher  and  leveler.  Nearly 
90,000  have  been  sold.  It  is  believed  to  be  the  only 
harrow  that  will  do  the  work  thoroughly  in  all  kinds 
of  ground,  leaving  the  soil  in  light,  loose  condition, 
ready  to  receive  the  seed.  It  subjects  the  soil  to  the 
action  of  a  steel  crusher  and  leveler,  and  to  the  cut-

The  Cooley  Cabinet  Creamer. —The 
Cooley  Creamer  has  no  superior,  if  it  has  a  peer.  None 
is  better  known  among  the  best  dairymen,  none  has 
been  so  widely  sold,  and 
none  has  given  more  uni¬ 
formly  good  results.  In¬

nest  effort  to  secure.  To  promote  our  reader’s  inter¬ 
ests,  in  conjunction  with  the  Vermont  Farm  Machine 
Company,  of  Bellows  Falls,  Vt. ,  we  offer  a  Cooley

Babcock  Milk  Tester — In  the  department  of 
the  dairy,  no  modern  invention — no  invention  either 
ancient  or  modern — has  been  more  productive  of  good
