stone. It will save its cost in one day. It can 
be attached to the wheel of the mower and the

No. II). Roth's Saw Kite Guide. 
G von for T wo Subscribers. 
We will venture to say that not one-half of 
our reader* keep their saws in a condition to 
work properly, and we are glad to offer on 
liberal terms, a tool which will enable anyone 
to put a saw in the best possible condition. It 
is a pleasure to do work with a saw when in 
good order; but it is hard work and kill-time 
to do work with a saw in bud order, and 
There is no tool that could be made to do just the work that is done by the Acme Harrow 
We have uever used any other implement that, has given us such complete satisfaction. Its 
work is unique. Its peculiar combination of cast, steel coulters or slicers, by their continual 
cutting, lifting oud turning, seems to completely pulverize and mellow the top two or three 
inches of soil and put it into the best possible condition to receive the seed. In hard clay 
lumps, on inverted sod and ou the lightest laud, it seems equally at home, and it cuts and slices 
until the surface is all gone and any ordinary growth of weeds annihilated. The implement is 
so well known that words spoken in its praise seem almost useless. We could not farm without 
one, and we believe those who once use one will say the same thing. Made by Nash & Brother,

person. Sharp knives save grass and wear 
and tear of the machine and of horse flesh. It 
is made bv the R. H. Allen Co., 189-191 Water 
St,. N. Y. City. Although it, sells for $7,50, 
and is worth it, yet we will send it to any per¬ 
son .sending us six subscribers. 
No. 2. Tbe Hitchcock Potato Digger and 
Shovel Plow combined. 
Given for Ten Subscribers, 
This is a simple, but valuable implement. 
Although tt does its work perfectly, yet it is of 
remarkably light draught, and can be used 
with one horse. A cheap and good potato 
digger Is a much desired implement Potato 
digging ranks with manure spreading as hard 
and uncomfortable work. The common plow 
does fair work but too much hand digging is 
required in combination with it to secure all 
the tubers. We believe the Hitchcock Digger 
will give good satisfaction. Mast diggers are 
high-priced, and beyond the reach of the 
smaller farmer. They can be used only 
through the short, digging season and are

Given for Fifty Subscribers, 
always taxes patience and body to an alarming 
degree, besides a loss of muli lime. A saw 
in good and proper order will do more and 
better work in one hour than a hail oue will 
in three hours. 
Very few carpenter* even know how to 
file and set a saw properly. This instrument 
will euable any jx-rsou to do it with greatest 
accuracy. No person who uses a saw should 
be without one. The bund saw guide will be 
delivered anywhere ou receipt of price §2,50.

No. 11. Pennsylvania J.awn .Mower. 
Given lor Twelve Subscribe s. 
A good lawn mower is a necessity to one 
who desires to have a good lawn. A poor 
mower is a most unprofitable investment. 
We have used the Pennsylvania Mower for a 
number of years, and can assure our friends 
that it is one of the best made. The size we 
offer has a 14-inch cutter and an 8-iuch wheel. 
It can be Operated by a lady, as tbe weight is 
only 36 pounds. It will cut long grass, and 
give satisfaction in every way. 
practically worthless for the rest of the year. 
We should advise the purchase of the com¬ 
bined implement which by the changing of 
one bolt can be converted either into a shovel 
g low or a potato digger. The price of the 
ombined Tool is §10.50 and we will send it 
for 10 subscribers. The Potato Digger alone, 
price §8.00. for eight subscribers; or the Shovel 
Plow, price §7.110, for seven subscribers. 
Manufactured by the Belcher aud Taylor 
Agricultural Tool Company, Chicopee Falls, 
Last year we said, in speaking of the Eureka, that having used it for five years in all kinds of 
grass, we would no sooner think of going back to a narrow, side-cutting mower than we would 
to the old haud-rake reaper. We can only reaffirm this opinion. In this machine the cutter 
bar is directly lx 1 hind the horses and in front of the driver. Every part is made of the strong¬ 
est material, and the whole machine is put together to stay. The size we offer cuts six feet wide, 
and a pair of ordinary farm horses will handle it with ease. The idea that this machine runs so 
heavily that extra horseflesh is required to move it is absurd. Wo can highly recommend the 
Eureka. It will make friends wherever it goes. The machine is made by the Eureka Mower 
Compauy, Utica, N, Y. Price, §00; and the man who secures it will be sure to say that it is 
No. 3. Cole’s Improved Garden Plow. 
Given for Three Subscribers. 
This handy little implement materially 
lessens the labor of cultivating the garden. 
We have it in use and would not. lie without it 
for many times its cost. Its excellence is 
largely due to the size of the wheel and ad¬ 
justments so that, the force applied to the han¬ 
dles acts parallel to the resistance of the plow 
No. 7. The tleebe Cart. 
Given for Tliirty-Mve Subicriben, 
In offering the celebrated 
Beebe Cart as a premium we 
are giving our readers a ebanee 
to obtain somet hing more than 
ordinarily useful, ornumental 
and durable. In educating 
young horses, in riding over 
hilly country, or rough or 
muddy roads, this cart is with¬ 
out a superior. It's a cart that 
is easy to mount and is pro¬ 
nounced perfection by horse¬ 
men. It is wide between the 
shafts. The cross bar is cir¬ 
cular, allowing ample room for 
the hor se and lending elasticity 
to the girting of the shafts.

can assure our friends that, if they secure one 
of these implements, they will be well satisfied 
with tbe result of their labors in our behalf.

high seats and with less room to brace the foot. The springs are back aud restou the axle, 
making little weight on the thill straps. This cart is light and graceful, is nicely balanced and 
an easy rider. The seat, is of fierforated veneer, and handsome. The foot, rest is made with 
slate. The fact is that every horse owner ought to have something of this kind, and he cannot 
do better than to write to the Bee tie Cart Co., Racine, Wis., for a circular and prices. The price

scuffles are of steel. It is made by Q. W.

No. 4. Lewis's Combination Foree Pump. 
Given for Five Subscribers. 
The cut shows the pump in the three forms 
into which it can be readily changed. It is 
made of drawn brass tubing, is 1% inch in 
diameter, and weighs4} j pounds. It is an ex¬ 
cellent fire extinguisher, throwing a stream of 
water 50 to 00 feet. It can be changed from a 
force pump into an insect sprayer, having a 
nozzle for this purpose, which gives a fine 
Spray, and proves very satisfactory. It can 
also lie changed into a veterinary syringe, and 
as such is a very useful instrument. Agents 
are meeting with fine success in selling these 
pumps, and they are a very desirable premi- 
inn. Price §6, Made By P, <e- Cat*

teeth, as shown by the lower knife in the above cut. Tt. cuts rapidly and easily, hay or straw, 
in stack, mow or bale, and can also bo used for cutting moss or peat, or for cutting muck in 
ditching, or wherever a hay knife is to be used. As the grinding is done only on the smooth 
side, any novice can grind it and do it well; if a tooth breaks out, a slight grinding replaces it 
good as new. It is made by the North Wayne Tool Co., liallowell, Me. Price §1.75 each.
