REVOLUTION In PITCHING HAY!
Rundel'S and Palmer'S First Premi-
um Horse Pitch Fork.

TT UNLOADS ton of hay in from three to
L eight minutes; it pitches into window from
outside, carrying the hay inside; it pitches into
mows, over and under purlin beams, and into
any place where hand fork will work; it stacks
hay and straw, in the field, making high and low
ricks.
These are the simplest, and most complete work
ing tools yet introduced to the farmers as has been
shown by the unlimited demand for them during
last season. which exceeded the ability of the man
ufacturers to supply by several thousands; also by
the universal preference they received, when OPP
Grated in competition with various other forks.
Every farmer in the county is invited to call at
the Agricultural Warehouse and examine these
celebrated forks, and satisfy themselves that the
truth has not been half told.

This call is based upon the one issued

we think that it is such an one as no Union
man can object to.
In consideration of tho fact that tho mill
