MULTICOLE RYE. 
kind of rye was introduced from France a few years since,

adaptedness to our soil and climate. Its yield, in most cases, is 
from a sixth to a fourth more than that of common rye, under the 
same circumstances. A few bushels for sale at the Ag. Warehouse

BUFFALO NURSERY AND HORTICULTURAL 
GARDEN, BUFFALO, N. Y. 
TMIE stock of fine, thrifty Apple trees, ndw of size for sale, is 
unusually large and fine. The assortment of Cherry trees is 
also very extensive, comprising the most choice and popular sorts. 
Peach trees, a very fine collection, healthy and free from disease. 
Pear trees of the most choice and select varieties, both on free 
stocks and also worked on quince stocks, for dwarfs or garden cul¬ 
ture. But seven trees in these nurseries have ever been affected by 
fire blight. Also, a very general assortment of the Plum, Quince, 
Apricot, Nectarine, Gooseberry, Currant, Raspberry, Strawberry, 
&c. 
The assortment of Ornamental Trees and Shrubs, Flowering 
plants, embraces almost every desirable article in this department. 
Roses, 240 varieties. Many very choice and rare varieties of 
Moss, Hybrid Perpetual, Bourbon, and other roses, have recently 
been added to the collection. 
A fine collection of Green-house Plants; among them 30 choice 
varieties of the Camelia Japonica. 
Very extensive additions are constantly being made to this estab¬ 
lishment, and no expense has been spared to render it as perfect 
as that of any other in our country. Trees destined for the west 
will be shipped at Buffalo, per steamboat or propeller, unless 
otherwise ordered; and the advantages that the=e nurseries pos¬ 
sess over eastern nurseries in supplying the great west will be 
seen at a glance. To say nothing of the extra expense of trans¬ 
portation, the saving of eight or ten days, [very often two or three 
weeks,] in their transportation, is an item of some little impor¬ 
tance. 
The new Descriptive Catalogue of this establishment, a pamphlet 
of 60 pages, giving a full description of several hundred varieties 
of fruits, &c., will be sent gratis to all post-paid applicants, Or¬ 
ders by mail, or otherwise, will receive the most prompt attention.

AMERICAN EGG HATCHING MACHINE. 
Patented Feb. 20, 1846. 
A FTER 15 months of practical demonstration, the subscriber 
is enabled to present the above machine to the public with 
confidence, as an auxiliary to the wants of the farm-house. It is 
so simple in its construction and management, that a child can in 
a short time superintend its operations, with about an hour’s at¬ 
tention during the day; and it requires no care after bed-time. 
Alcohol,.or other high wines, is found to be the cheapest and clean¬ 
est fuel, and by repeated trials, the average expense of this kind 
of fuel does not exceed a quarter of a cent an egg, for the full term 
of twenty-one days. The chickens produced are healthy and 
strong, and their fine appearance has been the subject of general 
remark, among the many visitors (now) attending Saratoga. Full 
printed directions and explanations accompany each machine. 
The machines are durable, and can be sent with safety through 
any of the ordinary channels of conveyance.

I. T. GRANT & CO’S PATENT PREMIUM FAN 
MILLS. 
rpHE subscribers, manufacturers of these celebrated mills, hav- 
X ing enlarged their manufacturing establishment, hope to be 
enabled hereafter to supply promptly'the rapidly increasing de¬ 
mand for that article. Their Fan-mills have taken the first pre¬ 
mium at four of the New-York State Agricultural Fairs, at the 
State Fairs in Pennsylvania and Maryland, at the Fair of the 
American Institute, and at a large number of County Fairs, and 
secured the highest consideration at the great National Fair, at 
the city of Washington. They have been repeatedly tried, and the 
principle upon which they operate thoroughly tested by commit¬ 
tees appointed for that purpose, and in every instance have been 
declared superior to anj r that have come in competition with them. 
They have never been awarded the second premium , and are the 
only mills manufactured, that will chaff and screen wheat per¬ 
fectly clean (and at the rate of one bushel per minute) at one ope¬ 
ration, taking out the chess, cockle and smut at the same time. 
They will also thoroughly clean nee, and all kinds of grain and 
seeds by running it through once. 
The materials, workmanship, and finish of these mills are supe¬ 
rior to any in market. The bearings are all turned and finished 
so that a boy can turn them with perfect ease. We manufacture 
four sizes, (with seven sieves to each mill,) varying in price from 
$21 forNo. 1, to $27 for No. 4,and warrant them superior to any 
now in use. 
We also manufacture very superior Grain Cradles , which have 
taken the first premiums wherever exhibited. 
Our Fan Mills and Cradles are for sale at the following places:
