Sheller. Y HAVE purchased the Patent Right for the above great Corn Sheller for the State of Arkansas, and will, early day possible, be in Little Rock, prepared to sell the patent rights for counties through out the entire State.
 The rights for this celebrated Cornsheller have been disposed of for every State in the Union at nous rates and it needs but to be seen to commend itself to every practical man.
 It comments itself by
 lst. Its GREATNESS.
 2d. Durability simplicity, ,ightness portability, and no chance to get out of order. 3d. The mauner of doing its work and this is curious enough. In all other machines the is moved by grinding, crushing, mashing process, but in this it is picked off child would do with its fingers.
 4th. No matter what is the size of the cob, or shape every kernel is taken off, and done neatly, that not the and HUsK that holds the corn is at all disturbed or rubbed off, hence the corn is Clean, deposited in box or bag, while the cobs unbroken are laid side by the machine itself, 9th. All other machines require much power they are almost useless while this is run and fed by a boy of 12 years old, who will shell from so to 90 bushels per day.
 9th. But the most wonderful performance of this curious machine, is the fact that it shells Wet and Green Corn just as easily as Dry Corn.
 7th. And is the ONLY machine that will select and shell corn for seed without injury to the grain.
