GETTING OUT GRAIN.
AGENCY FOR WHEELER, MELlCK&CO
IMPROVED COMBINED
THRESNER AND AFIflNOWER.

Vg'llE most convenient portable, easlywork-
4 ed. and perfectly operating machine for
threshing, separating and winnowing wheat
rye and oats, now in use. Though compara-
lively but little known here there are about
400 of them in use in other grain growing
districts, all giving entire satisfaction
II is the machine (but much improved) that
obtained the First Premium at the Montgom-
cry County Fair atthc exhibition in 1858, and
elected universal appreciation; and wherever
exhibited of u working test in competition with
others has always taken the Premium.
The two-horse machine cleans in the best
manner ready for market, with or 6 hands
from $50 to 200 bushels of wheat per day, and
the one-horse from 20 to 100 bushels; occupies
but little space; is easily moved from stack to
stack and readily put up.
For Farmers who raise from 500 to 1000
bushels Of wheat and who prefer to do their
work with their own force, no other machine
Is so desirable.
This machine is ,earrdnted to give entire sat
isfaction, or may be returned at the expiration
of n reasonable time ON trial.
