HORSE POWERS AND THRESHERS. 
T HE attention of farmers is invited to Wheeler’s Patent Horse 
Powers, an engraving and description of which is given in 
the Cultivator for Feb., 1847. Among the advantages of this 
power are its compact size and lightness, and the ease with which 
sufficient speed can be obtained for threshing, without gearing, and 
consequently greatly lessening the friction. It will be found a great 
labor-saving machine, as it may be attached to Threshing Ma¬ 
chines, Circular Saws for sawing, Straw-Cutters, or any other 
machine which it is wished to impel by motive power. P ice, for 
single horse power, $75—for two horses $95. 
Also, Wheeler’s Spike Thresher, with a cylinder of 14 inches 
in diameter, and 22 inches long, with the concave filled with spikes 
on the upper side, thus avoiding accidents by preventing stones or 
other substances getting into the Thresher. Another advantage of 
this Thresher is, that it scatters the grain much less than many 
others. Price,$28—with Separator attached, $35. The Separator 
divides the straw and grain, by a shaking motion which it re¬ 
ceives from a crank attached to the Thresher, thus saving the work 
of one or two men with rakes. 
With this Horse Power and Thresher, 200 bushels of oats, or 
100 of wheat may be threshed per day, with a change of horses. 
The above machines constantly on hand at the Albany Ag. 
Warehouse and Seed Store, No. 10, Green-street.
