T HE proprietor of this establishment confines himself wholly to 
the propagation of hardy Fruit Trees, all of which have been 
obtained fn m the most reliable sources, or cut from bearing trees 
of well known varielies. About sixty varieties of plums and a 
large quantity of the Apples have been proved on Lis own grounds, 
and all are cultivated with his own hands, ass sted by his son, who 
is soon to assume a personal interest in the business. And all the 
cutting of buds or grafts, and the labeling of trees, with the over¬ 
sight of taking up and packing, being done by him in person, he 
feels confident of being able to give as good satisfaction as to cor¬ 
rectness, as can be given at any other nursery. The stock of ap¬ 
ples is large, and embraces numerous varieties, so that the Fruit 
Grower and Amateur Horticulturist can each be supplied

THE AMERICAN FRUIT CUI/TURIST, 
BY J. J. THOMAS. 
A GREATLY enlarged and improved edition of the Fruit CuL 
turist, containing more than triple the matter of the former 
editions, having been wholly re-written, so as to embrace essett- 
tially 
ALL THE VALUABLE INFORMATION 
Known at the present time, relative to 
FRUITS AND FRUIT CULTURE. 
It will contain 
THREE HUNDRED ACCURATE ENGRAVINGS, 
And will include condensed and full descriptions of all fruits of 
merit or celebrity cultivated or known in the country. 
To prevent confusion in a numerous list of varieties, careful at¬ 
tention has for years been given to effect the clear and systematic 
arrangement adopted in this work ; and further to enable the rea¬ 
der to know at a glance, the various grades of excellence, the 
quality is designated by the size of the type used for the name. 
The numerous figures of fruits are 
EXACT IMPRESSIONS 
Of average specimens. The descriptions have been prepared in 
nearly every case, from the fruits themselves ; and to distinguish 
fixed from accidental characters, careful comparison has been ex¬ 
tensively made with specimens from several different states, and 
with the descriptions in the best American works on Fruits. 
To determine the qualities as adapted to different regions, assis¬ 
tance has been largely furnished by a number of the most eminent 
pomologists of the Union. 
The whole making a handsome duodecimo volume, of over 409 
pages, at the low price of One Dollar.

Centrifugal and Centripetal Churn. 
AMONG the nu- 
merous inven¬ 
tions, Ac. of the 
Churn, the annexed 
cut represents the 
only one which has 
thus far deserved an 
introduction. It is 
a recent invention, 
and for which let¬ 
ters patent have 
been granted. It is 
made and offered 
the public on trial, 
with our best assu¬ 
rances of its giving 
satisfaction. 
Description.— Fig. 1. 'Hie churn as it appears with the cover 
off. Fig 2 The head of the dasher or floats which is in one piece 
and can be instantly removed from the churn—and has no iron 
rod running through, as in most crank and cylinder churns. 
When the crank is turned in the directiou of the arrow, C. the 
cream is forced through between the three flat broad floats, pas¬ 
sing in at a. and escaping at b. This process is continued until the 
butter forms into lumps so large as not to pass through, when the 
crank is reversed, thereby throwing all the milk, cream and but¬ 
ter into the middle of the churn—caused by the angular pitch of 
the inner float, thereby quickly gathering the whole mass into one 
roll of butter. 
From the repeated trials had with it. and the uniform success at¬ 
tending its use, we do not hesitate to recommend it as being well 
worthy attention and trial. 
Sizes and prices will be published in a succeeding No.—They 
will not exceed that of the common cylinder churn.
