GREAT INvENTIoN.-We are pleased to
record the fact that our townsman, Simon
p kase, has received a patent for great
improvement in Rice Cleaning machinery.
Mr.. Kase has fully established its practi-
cal benefit aud consequent value, by clean
ing 10 or =, 900 bushels Of Rice in very
superior manner, both as to speed and the
nature Of The work. We have been in-
formed that this machine will clean per-
fectly seven bushels in twelve minutes,
with single pot, leaving the rice whole,
and white as pearl. An engine Of forty
horse power, will drive five pots, aud the
machinery is SO arranged as to require on
iy FIVE men to manage it. This Is an i'm.
meuse advantage over the old pea,le sud
mortar process,-DunUiWe 4merican.
