CATALOGUES, ETC., RECEIVED. 
W . ATLEE BURPEE & COMPANY, 
PHILADELPHIA, PA.—A circular 
of novelties for 1890. It is impressed upon 
the reader that these are actually novelties 
of real merit and that the descriptions are 
true to nature, having been written during 
growth at the firm’s trial grounds called 
Ford hook Farm. 
The Geneva Grape.— Circular from R. 
G. Chase & Company, Geneva, N. Y. This 
new white grape is illustrated and described 
and some good authorities on grape culture 
testify to its merits. 
Frank Wilson’s Bone Mill.— Catalogue 
from Wilson Brothers, Easton, Pa. This 
pamphlet grows larger and more valuable 
each year. We judge from this fact that 
the bone mill business constantly increases. 
This is just as it should be. We have used 
this mill for bones and shells for some 
years and find it a great help and a source 
of profit. If you keep hens, you need a 
bone-mill. The “ Wilson ” is the best mill. 
Tornado Feed and Ensilage Cutters. 
—Catalogue from W. R. Harrison & Co., 
Canton, Ohio. There are 10 reasons giveu 
why the “ Tornado” is the best cutter 
made. The best of it is that these reasons 
are all backed up by the testimony of solid 
and business farmers. The cutters them¬ 
selves, with their distinct and peculiar parts 
are carefully illustrated and described so 
that one can readily see how they work. Any 
man who thinks of buying a cutter should 
examine this pamphlet. It is a good one. 
Monarch Incubator.— Circular from 
James Rankin, South Easton, Mass. Mr. 
Rankin is one of the most successful poul- 
trymen in the country. He gives the 
“ Monarch ” credit for a great part of his 
success, and from what the R. N.-Y. can 
learn this is a just credit. Wedo not think 
the every-day poultry-keeper will find any 
incubator that will suit him better than 
the “ Monarch ” This is merely an 
opinion. We have not tried to work any 
incubator. 
Kelly Duplex Feed Mill.— Circulars 
from The Springfield Engine & Thrasher 
Co., Springfield, Ohio. The R. N.-Y. has fre¬ 
quently called attention to the Kelly Du¬ 
plex Mill. To show what the manufac¬ 
turers claim for it, we may quote from the 
circular as follows: 
“ In a mill intended for grinding feed the 
following things are desirable, and they 
constitute the essentials of a good mill: 
First.—It must cut up the grain or ma¬ 
terial to be ground, whatever it is, into 
small, fine particles. The object is to en¬ 
able the stomachs of animals eating it to 
appropriate all of it so that none of it is 
voided in the dung and wasted. If the 
grain is so cut up into minute particles of 
uniform size, the greatest possible surface 
is thus presented to the action of the di¬ 
gestive fluids in the stomach of the ani¬ 
mals. Most mills crush a part of the grain 
or material into a pulp and leave the 
balance in coarse particles. Mills of that 
kind are not to be accepted as good grind¬ 
ing mills. 
Second.—It must do the work with econ¬ 
omy to the power. 
Third.—It must do it rapidly so that the 
largest possible quantity may be ground in 
the shortest possible time. 
Fourth.—It must be able to grind sue 
cessfully all kinds of grain aud grind uni¬ 
formly well. 
Fifth.—It must have a regulating device 
by which the operator may easily, and 
without the loss of time or consumpHon of 
)>nwcf, regulate thequalityof the grinding. 
It is claimed that the Kelly Duplex pos¬ 
sesses these qualities in a pre-eminent de¬ 
gree.” 
“OneWay to Save Money” is to buy 
everything you can direct from the manu¬ 
facturer and never pay a middleman’s 
profit. Our readers have certainly noticed 
the advertisement of the Wilber H. Mur¬ 
ray Manufacturing Company, of Cincin¬ 
nati, Ohio, who are manufacturers of the 
“Murray” §5.95 Single Harness and 
“Murray ” $55.95 Side Bar and End Spring 
Buggies. We take pleasure in saying to 
our readers that we know this firm and 
that we believe they will do just what they 
say and that any orders given them will re¬ 
ceive the best attention. They make a full 
line of buggies and buggy harness aud 
guarantee everything just jus represented 
or the money is refunded. It will pay every 
reader of this paper who has not received 
oue of these catalogues to write for it. All 
letters should be directed plainly Wilber 
H. Murray Manufacturing Company, Mur¬ 
ray Building, 139 W. Front Street, Cin¬ 
cinnati, O. 
Luborq Adjustable Chair.— In exam¬ 
ining the catalogue of the Luburg Manu¬ 
facturing Company, we are reminded of 
the fact that the Luburg chair will prove 
most acceptable as a Christmas present. 
The chair is a marvel of comfort aud con¬ 
venience, with its 50 changes of position. 
Prices range from $7 upwards. This house 
also offers a full line of invalid wheel chairs, 
baby coaches, etc. Address the Luburg 
Manufacturing Company, 145 North Eighth 
Street, Philadelphia. All of these goods 
are offered as premiums to R. N.-Y. agents. 
The Pressey Brooder.— Catalogue from 
G. W. Pressey, Hammonton, N. J. When 
it is stated that this brooder is used on 
many of the best broiler farms in southern 
New Jersey, enough has been stated in its 
praise. It is cheap, simple and good. 
The Weaver Organ.— Catalogue from 
The Weaver Organ and Piano Company, 
York, Pa. These organs are guaranteed 
for six years, that is, the manufacturers 
agree to replace one if, within six years, 
with proper care and use, it proves defec¬ 
tive in material or construction. This is 
fair enough ; is it not ? 
Linseed-Oil Meal—Its Value as a 
Feed.— This is the subject of a little 
pamphlet issued by the Detroit Linseed-Oil 
Co., Detroit, Michigan. There can be no 
doubt about the value of linseed-oil meal as 
a food for animals. The complaints from 
tiiose who have used it may generally be 
traced to confounding it with cotton seed 
meal and to mistakes in feeding it—wrong 
combinations of the feeding elements. Like 
every other good thing, it can be abused. 
Farmers should know how to feed it to the 
best advantage. This little pamphlet will 
help them to such an understanding, and 
we hope all our friends will look the mat¬ 
ter up. 
Artificial Limbs.— Circular from A. A. 
Marks 701 Broadway, New York. If there 
is any reader of the R. N.-Y". unfortunate 
enough to need a new limb the best we can 
do is to refer him to Mr. Marks. He is the 
man whose ingenuity enables a person with 
both legs cut off to climb a ladder or ride a 
bicycle.
