No, 61, New Myers’ Wood-Truck Carrier, 
In handling large quantities of hay. we seek 
to avoid all the hard work possible. This 
carrier is considered one of the best in the 
market. It is claimed that it requires 
less rope than any other made, that it saves 
from 40 to 60 feet of walk for the horse, 
has no springs, latches, locks or dogs, and is 
always reliable. For all ordinary barns itis 
called the most complete device for elevating 
hay ever offered to the public. Send for a 
circular to the manufacturers. F. E. Myers 
& Bro., Ashland, Ohio, and see how far these 
claims can be proved, and then go to work 
to secure one free of cost; for the 61st largest 
club of subscribers will secure it. 
Nos. 73 to 7S. Macomlier’s Corn Planter. 
The simplest, most durable, and, all things 
considered, the cheapestand best hand-planter 
made. It ia wholly of iron, is strong, and yet 
light; it has no disks or slides to cause friction 
and run hard, no brushes to wear out. It can 
be set to drop a single beet seed or as many as 
seveu kernels of corn in a place, works very 
accurately, and without injuring the seed. 
It has been greatly improved in the pa«t vear, 
and gives great satisfaction and is rapidly in¬ 
creasing in popularity. Price of each planter, 
$3 50. We will give to the senders of the next 
six largest dubs, from 73 to 78 inclusive, two 
of tbe planters, worth $7. Manufactured by 
S. M. Macomber & Co , Grand Isle, Vt. 
Nos. 63 ond 63. .Smith’s Adjustable Stanch¬ 
ion. 
No better stanchions can be found; they 
are made of different sizes and lengths to fit 
the animals. While holding the animals per¬ 
fectly secure, they allow ft large amount of 
freedom, and when lyingdown allows natural 
and easy position. Thousands of them are in 
use by the best breeders. They are made by 
Brooks & Parsons, Addison, N. Y. Price 
$1 50 each. We will give six, worth $9, to 
each of the senders of the two next largest 
clubs, Nos. 63 and 63. 
The hardest work on tbe farm is the pitch¬ 
ing of hay from the load in a hot bam. This 
carrier makes that work easy and pleasant. 
It is strong and strongly put up, can be used 
to pitch over beams where not more than 
seven feet of open space can be had. In 
changing from one mow to tne other, itis only 
necessary to pull the rope through the carrier 
and hitch tbe horse to the other end. It runs 
on four large wheels on a wooden track; the 
load is held while being carried entirely inde¬ 
pendent of tbe rope. This carrier will suit 
you. itcosts.complete, $10 50. and we will give 
one to each of the Dext largest clubs. No. 55

Tool Co., Janesville, Wisconsin. 
No. 70. Lever Butter-Worker. 
Butter working is both a science and an art. 
It is science to know when it is worked 
enough and only enough to produce the best re¬ 
sults. The art ia to be able to work it evetilv, 
so that one part Is not over worked and an¬ 
other part not worked enough • This can 
hardly be done properly by the old ladle and 
by hand, 'i he lever workers have been found 
very satisfactory and are simple certainly. 
Cornish, Curtis & Greene, of Fort Atkinson, 
Wis., have supplied us with a number of lever 
workers. We will give a No. 1 L°ver Worker, 
price $6.80, for tbe 79th largest club, and a 
No. 0 Lever Worker, price $5.00, for the 95th 
largest club. 
No. 56. $10 Worth of Garden Seeds. 
The R H. Allen Company, ISO and 191

ality we can offer the sender of tbe 56rh 
largest club seeds to the amount of $10. to be 
selected a: pleasure from their catalogue. 
No. 80. Field Fore© Pump. 
Tbe aggregate loss this year to the fruit 
growers of tbis country, through the depre¬ 
dations of injurious insects, will figure well up 
into the millions. Nor is tbe loss of fruit tbe 
oDly damage; those iree9 this year defoliated 
have been so weakened that were they not to 
gtfV.A be againattacked.lt would be 
lJj&A several years before they 
|Sp3\\ would recover full vigor or 
Ivi \\ produce full crops. All this 
flfi nn loss and damage could easily 
agwu \ have been prevented by the 
v \j use of Paris-green, London- 
purple, or other insecticides 
[ applied with a force pump 
and sprinkler. We have tried 
several force pumps, but have 
found nothing for tbe price, 
or for twice the price, so effective as the Field 
Force Pump. It is strong, simple, always ready 
for use, bas an air-chamber, insuring a con¬ 
stant and steady stream or spray; will easily 
throw the fluid 00 or 70 feet and over the high¬ 
est orchard or shade tree, ltisindispensable in 
the orchard or vineyard and is very handy in 
washing wagons or windows, and Its use will 
often put out nn incipient fire and save the 
buildings, it can bo applied to a suction 
pipe and used as a first class cistern pump 
when not needed in the orchard or vineyard, 
and, withal, costs only $6. We huvo used one 
for years, and know ot nothing equal to it. 
It is made by the Field Force rump Co., 
Lockport, N Y., and we shall give ods to the 
sender of the next largest club, and will guar¬ 
antee one to any person for a club of six sub¬ 
scribers. Every farmer should have one.

currents. churning the cream evenly and 
quickly, leaving ic no opportunity to slick in 
corners it churns in from two to teu min¬ 
utes and makes nice butter, lying in granular 
form loosely m the churn. The buttermilk

No. 64. Nutter’s Cast-Iron Hog Trough. 
This is really a novelty in this line. It is 
so made that when empty it goes to tbe top of 
the pen out of the way and there remains 
until the food is placed in it, when It descends 
to the floor and is in position for the hogs to eat 
from it. and in all cases is firmly bold in place 
and cannot be rooted about or overturned by 
tbebogs. Being made of cast iron, it is iudis- 
truetible, clean, and practically everla ting.

Maine, of different sizes, holding from 
13 to 94 quarts of food, and sell at from $1.50

trifle.

dispensable tool in every garden. The Mat¬ 
thews is one of the best made and works 
nicely, leaving the ground level. It spreads 
No. 58. Eureka Butter-Worker. 
When butter has to be worked with the ladle 
and bowl it is very hard work, and the tempta¬ 
tion is great to no more than half do it, and 
the danger of spoiling the grain is also great.

has also a pair of long steel hoes which can be 
used in place of the teeth. It is made by T.

69th largest club. 
No. 65. Rectangular and SqaareBcx Churn. 
A churn that breaks the grain and causes

No. 59. The Davis Hwing Clmrn. 
It is now a conceded fact that floats and 
paddles are not essential to the successful 
working of a churn. In fact, in many churns 
they bave a tendency ^ m 
to break grain, and no |V jC

which gives a fine spray and bas proved very

given good satisfaction. It Is made by P. C. 
Lewis, Catskill. N.Y. Price, plain brass, 
$6 00; nickel-plated, $7.50. We shall present

No seed house in America is more widely 
known or has a higher standing for reli¬ 
ability and high quality of seeds than that of

No. 60, Tbe Holt Portable Forge. 
Every farmer needs some sort of a forge; 
it is handy for many purposes. The Holt 
Forge is a good one, and proves very satisfac¬ 
tory i > loose who use it, as will be seen by tbe 
following extract Trom a letter of Wright & 
Huntley of the Sugar Loaf Mock Farm, West 
E sew, Otsego Co ,N Y.; “We have bad a No. 
00 Fjrge in use almost constantly for two 
years,end itjsasgood asnew, apparently. We 
would not part with it for double its price, 
and be without it. It is superior to auy forge 
we have ever used. No farmer should be 
without it; when tbe cost is so little, it will 
pay for itself in a short time.” Made by the 
Holt Manufacturing Co., foot of South Water 
paratively small, giving a short standard to 
the plow. The plows, largo and small, are of 
steel, and also have a pair of senflles for 
working the ground very shallow. It is made

arm and saw blade. It has a tilting table for 
inlaying, a blower to keep the work free from 
dust, and a drawer for holding the toolB. it 
runs easy, cuts rapidly, and is considered by 
practical workmen among the very best ma¬ 
chinery made for general work. With it, 
boys, you can decorate the bouse with heauti- 
ful work, you can w hile nw’ay many a leisure 
hour, and cab sell your work and make money. 
It is made by A. H. Pomeroy, Hartford, Ct., 
and we will give the saw, price $7.00, a hand 
No. 85. Marlin Revolver. 
A good revolver is sometimes a very useful 
implement. A poor one is a curse to every¬ 
body, and the country is flooded with those 
so poor as to be as dangerous to the user as to 
with which the mower knife can be quickly 
aud easily ground by one person. If this ma¬ 
chine were used by every person owning a 
mower, the aggregate saving in horse flesh in 
a single yeih’ would pay for the entire lot.
