ONE WHEEL POWER.

w one of the most simple and durable Sweep
Powers now in use. 1t consists of one wheel only
and the horses work inside of the wheel. 1t can be
transported easily from place TO place, in common
farm wagon, and may be set up in 90 minutes, and
taken down in half that time, 1t is simple in con-
struction, not liable to get out Of ORDER and may be
easily repaired, the gearing being made entirely of
though it is better to have it under cover when
stationary, especially during stormy or very hot
weather. For efficiency, durability and simplicity,
this for sweep power, is preferred by many to all
others. Price of the largest size, with late I'M
proyements, 500. +. WHITMAN, JR.

PREMIUM WROUGHT IRON RAILWAY
HORSE POWER.

A T the great Agricultural State Fair, held at
II Baltimore, October, ls49, there was the lar
gest exhibition of Horsepower and Threshing Ma
chimes ever exhibited 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 foe
thousand of these powers 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 PnIcE, 500.

GFAs evidence that we do not over rate the ca
pacy of this Power and for the satisfaction of far
mers in want of good machine, insert the fol-
lowing letter. Just received from one of the most
intelligent and respectable farmers in Virginia
and we in daily receipt of letters OF the same
import from Maine to Texas.

Mr. f. WHITMAN, Jr.-
Dear Sir Il have for some time intended giving
you full description of the operation and success
of the 2-horse wrought iron Railway Power and
Threshing Machine, purchased of you last May.
u will give you few instances of threshing IL
carried the whole machine between 8 and 10 miles
with an OK cart and set it three times different
farms, and th,eshed from lis TO 100 bushels Of
wheat in one day, and each time took the machine
out Of the cart; made the tables geared the horses;
and commenced threshing in ten minutes. Rev.
Peter Ainsley, COL Richard J. Muse and Musso
Garnett Esq, were witnesses to the above. In
another instance, commenced threshing at Mr..
w. r. G. Tribes, at o'clock in the morning, and
threshed 81 bushels of wheat by IL o'clock in the
afternoon Of same day, and threshed AZ bushels OF
wheat before sun down. MIR. l.. ID. Brooks, Mr.
Beverly Brooks and Others can vouch for the truth
of this statement. frequently threshed 100 bush
els of wheat from breakfast to dinner time-and
during the season, threshed SO different crops
making in all $3.50 bushels of wheat, and the weal
of the machine is scarcely apparent-and consid
er the labor to the horses no more than blowing in
light land. ! candidly believe, your wrought-rof
Railway Horsepower and Thresher surpasses any
have seen, and find it is now much better since
! your late improvements have been attached.
| You will please have two of your Improved Rail

to me by first conveyance they are for two of m,
ghbors-have them landed at Piscataway Bridge
