The Best Thresher on Wheels! 
It l« not a vibrator, nulthor Is it an apron machine, 
hut the best points of both are combined, with new 
and original features of Its own. It is wonderfully 
simple in Its arrangement. It is admirably per¬ 
fect In Its threshing and separating qualities. It 
naves all the grain, atal cleans it ready for market. It 
runs easily, is constructed durably, is finished beau¬ 
tifully, i» the most economical, least expensive, aud 
altogether the most satisfactory machine in the 
market. 
It will handle wet grain as well as dry. fn thresh¬ 
ing X'lax and Timothy it has no equal, threshing and 
cleaning both as well, and ltearlv a* rapidly, as 
wheat., and require* no change except the sieves. It 
bas more square feet of separating and cleaning sur¬ 
face thau auy other machine made, and cannot be 
overloaded. It is both over aud under blast at the 
same time. 
Our clover hulling attachment is a new and very de¬ 
sirable feature. It docs the business more rapidly 
aud better than Bn exclusively clover hulling machine. 
Separators of the various sizes fitted for Steam or 
Horse-Power, as desired. 
An Improved Fift* Power, an improved Woodbury 
Power, and the El ward Equalizing Power, all 
mounted on four wheels, are manufactured by us, and 
are not surpassed by any in the market.

STOCKBRIDGE 
MANURES 
Fop I 860 . 
Some years ago the Stockbridge Manures were only 
known to a few farmers in the Connecticut Valley. 
Now they are so extensively used in different parts 
of the country as to require two large factories, one in 
Now York ana one In Boston to manufacture them. 
This increase shows what farmers think of good fer¬ 
tilizers, and is not only due to the fact that they are 
reliable, well-made, aud high-grade manures, but also 
to the fact that farmers have 
FOUND THEM PROFITABLE TO CSF.. 
Now that corn, and other farm produce la bringing 
such good prices, wo anticipate that farmers will in¬ 
vest still more largely in our fertilizers. 
Besides the Stockbridge Manures, we manufacture 
several high grade Phosphates, and deal hi first-class 
chemicals of all kinds. Farmers who intend to use 
Fertilizers of any kind, should 
Send for our New Pamphlet, 
which contains a large amount of reliable informa¬ 
tion, beside prices for 1880.
