No. 26. The Wilson One and Two Horse 
Spriiut Wbilficirces. 
Given for two and three Subscribers. 
These whiffietrees do away with the severe 
shock that the shoulders of the horse would 
otherwise receive m pulling and starting heavy 
loads, so that he labors with ease and comfort. 
The importance of this can hardly lie over¬ 
estimated. When the plow strikes a’ stone, or 
if the wagon comes against any obstruction 
or drops into a deep rut, tho blow that conies 
against the horses shoulder is enough to crush 
it. The wonder is, not that so many horses 
are lame with shoulder troubles, but that all 
are not. These severe shocks mav all be ob¬ 
viated and nine-tenths of the suffering and 
lameness prevented, by the use of the Wilson
