Spiral Hay and Straw Cutters
Having long been engaged in the
manufacture and sale Of Hay and Straw.
Cutters, Of various kinds, we claim to
have had experience sufficient to war
rant us II asserting, that the spiral form
for knives, upon cylinder for cutting
by pressure upon q roller, is the only
proper form, and the only kind Of cylin-l
der built upon philosophical Or mechani-
cal principles !; their capacity and
strength is, much greater in proportion
to their weight and cost to any cylinder
cutter without the knives. They are
yariously constructed, and as now made
by us in our tnew series, the knives
are adjustable and readily taken out if
necessary. and ground and regulated
separately which gives them decided
advantage over most other kinds in mar
ket.
And as our new series differs in every
essential point, it becomes necessary to
adop. distinct series Of marks or NUM-
bers, and at the same time assure our
patrons that every cutter in the s New
Series Of numbers, when compared BY
prices, will be found Of from thirty 10
fifty per cent greater capacity than those
Of like prices Of other manufacturers !;
to say nothing Of the adjustable arrange
ment Of the knives.

As pork raising continues TO increase

cutter into use, as well as Suffers.
The cutter is made Of wood or iron
case, about Is inches long, and from 6
10 8 inches in diameter, for hand use
Two sets Of stationary knives are placed
within the case, and conical cylinder,
hlllng the space within an inch all
around, Is hung through the case. Into
his cylinder is driven in spiral direc-
ION, several rows Of square steel teeth,
decreasing in size and closer together
they approach the larger and discharg-
ing end Of the case. The meat is cut
up sufficiently to be fed into funnel
about two and half inches diameter,
and at the small end ofthe cone cylend-
y This form Of cylinder, together
With the spiral arrangement ofthe square
eeth, serves to force the meat against
he stationary knives, and advance ii
oward the large end when il discharg-

very uniform and can be guaged 70 any
