Kansas, these new Looms will be for sale in
every County in Kansas. Every Farmer can
have a perfect Loom in his own house for :
THIRTY.FIvE DOLLARS ssl
This Loom is intended to take the place ofthe
common Hand Loom. Il Treads the Treadies,
throws the Shuttle, lets of the Web, and takes
up the Cloth, ;the weaving being al done by
working the Lathe. The Web is is sized, Spool
ed, Warped, Beamed and Drawn in the usual
manner, enabling the weaver to use the Loom
with but little instruction. And as they are
CHEAP AND SUBSTANTIAL,
and not liable to get out Of order, and viii
weave three times as fast as the common Loom,
they exactly fill a large and increasing demand
among farmers, for some easy, healthy, and
speedy way Of converting their own produc-
tons of
WOOL AND FLAX INTO CLOTHING,
which they find it to their interest to do on ac-
count of the high price of the manufactured
article. From these FACTS we are enabled to
offer to the Farmers and Mechanics of Kansas.

THIRTY-FIvE THOUSAND NOW IN USE


n presenting the AUTOMATIC ORGAN, We
/ boldly announce the greatest triumph in musi-
cal instruments of the age. During the past half
century, the French ana Germans have manufac-
tured reed instruments with double bellows, and
two pedals for the feet to operate but the want of
the reversed or Exhaustion Bellows, VIII ch is the
only bellows used IN our Instruments,) made II i'm
possible Tor them to produce the mellow, rich and
musical tone tor which our instruments are cele-
brated.
Another objection to this method OF blowing
was, that both feet being occupied, no OpPOrtunI-
~ was offered for the management Of the swell
Within the past two years, instruments construct
ed on this European plan Of 90 double blowers,' -
have been manufactured in this country, and to
counteract this difficulty (want OF a swcll) lever
has been projected from the centre of the instru
ment, 10 act upon the swell, and operated by the
knee. The inconvenience and contortIon neces
sars 10 effect this object, are disagreeahe enough
To gentleman, but To- a lady the usc OF such an
aPPendage is nearly impossible.
Oar AutmatIc device ObYIatcs thts dificulty en-
urely, Tho simple act OF blowing with more less
force giving tho desired increase or decrease IN
the volume OF tone. For seventeen years the
superior excellence of our Meodcons has not
been questioned, and Tor two years past the enor-
nous demand has made II impossible Tor us to
meet our orders promptly. With increased
taciltIcs, we feel warranted IN assuring our pat
rons that their orders Will be promptly met, and
solicit continuance OF their patronage.

II IS hardly possible for US to accurately des-

manner to convey the idea that they are the
