William Hovey’s Patent Hay Cutter. 
T HESE machines are manufactured by the Patentee at Worces¬ 
ter, Mass., corner of Union and Exchange streets, where they 
will be sold wholesale and retail, as cheap, and on as good terms as 
any other Cylinder Cutter made in Worcester or elsewhere; also the 
Cylinder of Knives, including the Patent Right, at prices as low as 
they can be made by others. The Patentee has opened a Ware 
Room at the State Agricultural Warehouse, No. 25 Cliff street, New 
York, where a large assortment of his own machines, and also all 
-other kinds of Cylinder Cutters, will be sold as cheap and on as good 
terms as they can be had from the makers. All Cutters manufac¬ 
tured by the patentee will be marked on the castings Wm. Hovey’s 
Patent, Worcester, Mass. All Cylinder Cutters not marked Wm. 
Hovey’s Patent, 1844, may be considered extremely deficient, as 
they have no means of adjusting the knives on the cylinders. These 
facts have been fully decided at almost every Fair in the United 
States, whenever these machines have come in competition with 
Wm. Hovey’s Patent Cutter. He has been awarded by various 
Mechanical and Agricultural Committees several large cash pre¬ 
miums and six silver medals for the superior merits of his improve¬ 
ments in adjusting the knives on the cylinder. 
Caution. —Look well as to these facts and to the marks on the 
castings—other Hoveys of Worcester, through the ingenious ar¬ 
rangement with Messrs. John Mayher & Co., who were, until re¬ 
cently, sole agents for Wm. Hovey’s Patent Straw Cutter, may mis¬ 
lead their customers by offering Cutters made by Hovey of Worces¬ 
ter, all of which would be true, but not Wm. Hovey’s Patent,
