HORSE POWER.

4 T the great Agricultural State Fair held at
a Baltimore, October, lS49, there was the lar
gest exhibition of Horse powers and Threshing Ma
chimes everexhibited in this State or at any other
State Fair In this country, and all thoroughly ex-
amined and tested by large and competent COM
mittee, who awarded the first premium, to the above
power, as the best on the ground. More than fire
thousand OF these powers are now in use by many
of the best Farmers in the country, and they con-
slider them to be double in power to any of the best
Sweep Powers, more durable and much easier for
the horses. CASH Price, 500.
