EXHIBITION—SUPERINTENDENTS’ REPORTS. 161 
\ 
Worcester, Massachusetts, attracted much attention for its free, 
simple motion. 
Threshers and Horse Powers. —In this department there was 
a splendid display. J. I. Case exhibited two of his well- 
known threshers and separators, with steam power, portable 
engine, etc. 
There was also two of the Gfeiser threshers and separators. 
This machine presents the novelty of dispensing with the ordi¬ 
nary seives to separate the grain. It was driven by. the Ames 
engine, ten horse power. 
A new candidate for favor was the Dexter thresher and 
separator ; also Badger Boy. Several kinds of horse powers 
were exhibited. The well known Pitts and Woodbury, mount¬ 
ed on two and four wheels. Also the Champion, designed for 
sawing wood etc. 
Farm Wagons. — There were several farm wagons, some of 
most excellent finish, one of which was provided with a box 
for side dropping, which elicited considerable attention. Car¬ 
penter’s patent coupling seemed to merit special notice, as it 
dispenses with nearly four-fifths of the blacksmith work on the 
wagon, and is claimed as a demonstrated success. 
Bobbs. —Kuhn, Seiberling, of Canton, Ohio, exhibited two 
specimens of bobbs, with iron knees and flexible joints etc. 
Cider Mills. —The display in this line was very creditable, 
embracing the usual plan of crushing the fruit and expressing 
the j uice. 
Corn Planters. —The corn planter of Elyria attracted- 
much attention, and it appears to be entitled to consideration, 
but being new and untried in this locality its permanent suc¬ 
cess must rest on practical experiments. 
Corn Shelters. —Of these implements there were several 
varieties, all of which merited their share of attention. 
Fanning Mills. —This indispensable agricultural implement 
was fully represented by two varieties. The A. P. Dickey
