HORSE POWER

A the great Agricultural State Fair, held at
L a Baltimore, October, lS49, there was the lar
gest exhibition of Horse-powers 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
mitlee, 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.

Mr.. E. 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.
will give you few instances of threshng:-I
carried the whole machine between and 10 miles
with an OK cart and set it three times on different
farms, and threshed from lis 70 1870 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 ]. Muse and Musao
Garrett, Esq, were witnesses to the above. In
another instance, l commenced threshng at Mr..
w. Il. G. Tribes, at s o'clock in the morning. and
threshed 81 bushels of wheat by II o'clock in the
afternoon of same day, and threshed At bushels OF
heat before down. Mr.. L. ID. Brooks Mr..
Beverly Brooks. and others, can vouch for the truth
of this statement. frequently threshed loo BUSH
els of wheat from breakfast to dinner tme-and
during the season, | threshed SO different crops,
making in all $3.50 bushels of wheat, and the wear
of the machine is scarcely apparent-and consid-
err the labor to the horses more than blowing in
light land. / candidly believe, your wrought-iron
Railway Horsepower and Thresher surpasses any

your late improvements have been attached.
You will please have tv o of your Improved Rail-
