LICENSED MANUFACTURERS.

The peculiarity peculiarity of this Machine is in its cutting for Sheet',
Cattle, Lambs, or pulping or sbreding for Pigs' food. The
cylinder is constructed in such a manner that, by the mere
adjusting of simple set screws, the cut can be regulated to
any required thickness, and also, by reversing the action,
may cut as thin as required for Sheep, or as thick as required
for Cattle, and vice versa; is perfectly strong, not liable to
derangement, and, by a supply of an extra pair of knives, is
equal to two double-acting machines. It has taken several
prizes at the York, Manchester, Liverpool, Warrington, awl
other Agricuitural Meetings.—May be seen at the Works.
