simple In its construction and operation, and wthai
effective but most Of all easily kept in repair, that
il IL worthy Cf the attention Of all who visit the
Agricultural Department for the purpose of seeing what
has been done Ia advance the farmer in improved tools

wide which are driven full of cut nails made for that
purpose The buhrs are placed in sheetiron case Il

upper buhr is boed fast 10 the upper part Of the frame
which is fastened to the posts by bolts. 40 that by

Another new machine model Of one, which has

conrvnnce which We do not hesitate to say will work
10 the entire satisfaction Of the farmer whose land II
covered with such pcbblestones were the especial
Jrcnd of our boyhood days Suspended to the axle is
movable rake, with halEcircuar fingers which gathers
all the stones in it's path and these are taken up by
teeth fixed in drum, and carried up over and dropped
into n hopper that conducts them into cartboly AT

trigger the drum throws them back inside, 80 that
stones getting between the teeth do not stop or break
