TO PLANTERS and FARMERS.

VNHE Subscriber desires to inform the public
= Il that he is prepared to furnish to any one that
wants such thing, the BEST COTTON GIN that
ismade anywhere, and he is still making improve
ments on hisformer Gins, and has no fear in chal-
lenging any other Gin Factory to produce an
equal in performance or speed. With good, dry
Cotton, the roll in the gin cannot be broken nor
made to spew over-which cannot be said of any
other gin. His gin also has advantages and i'm
provements which no other can have, as these have
been regularly patented, such as the exclusion
Of rats from the brush, &c., by the peculiar con-
struction ofthe gin, which no other has right to
make. He also makes THRASHERS Of different
construction to suit the wish ofany one; thespike
beater combined, the smooth drum with fingers
and no spikes, and different other patterns. He
has also the right of the celebrated Darlington
Trashers which are very much admired by every
one that has seen or tried them.
ANY one wanting II superior Gin or Thrasher
can be supplied by sending his order to me at
Chester C.. H., So. Ca. Work will be carefully
shipped to any place desired.
Repairing done at short notice.
