COTTON SAW GINS,
Straight Ribs, VS.. Crooked, Uniformity OF
Roll, &c.


JTIIoUGH tbe advantage Of the straight rib
n in the COTTON GIN has been discovered for
more than twenty years yet it has not been suiil-
c;ant1v known or appreciated by the planter. The
advantage consists simply i'll this: that the ribs,
when worn. can be moved down to where tE"y are
not worn, which answers the purpose ot new
satt of ribs. Three moves can be made, which
o;ves four wearnrs, which is equal to four scts OF
ribs. So that purchaser having III view prospec-
tive expense would lose the price OF three setts
of ribs if the ribs Of his gin were not moveaoie.
Any planter with common intelligence can move
the straight ribs himself, and thus obtain all the
benefit of anew sett OF RIBS. =,
The greatest uniformity can he obtained in the
roll by giving the ribs the proper angle the effect
Of which is, TO throw The weight OF the roll more
nnon the saws than upon the seed board, and by
adjusting the seed board SO to prevent the seed
when once detached from .rc-unitng with the roll;
this Improvement has been made by the snbscri-
Der within few months.
With regard tn fast picking gins, the greatest
amount oflint is obtained in two ways. FIRST, by
having long teeth lying MS nearly parallel t" the
verge of the saw possible, 50 that the teeth ell
terine the ribs so much point foremost they are
obliged to carry all the cotton through that they
get hold of. A fifty gin with these sort OF
teeth on nine inch saw has gined eight bales per
dAy The second plan -, to form the hfeaSl ="
that the teeth meets the ribs nearly at right angles
and thus packs the cotton into the teeth al IN"
saws. This plan IS very strainin= on the saws
AMI causes much heavier 'lranght Whether u"
cotton is Injured by Al ovcrwraught speed, thc
n,onters must Judge for themselves. The subScrl-
ber will furnish to the planters of this and a'Ioli-
ing Districts Cotton Gins equal in durable value
to any the country. Delivered at Chester, ORR.
or Charlotte, or any landing on the road for s.
per The brushes Of my gins are covered with
tin: which adds much to their strength and ddra-
bility
All orders promptly atIendcdto
