PUMPING WATER
GRINDING GRAIN
The Cheapest Power
Known to the World |!

There are hundreds of large, well-watered stock
farms in the country which the owners value fully
one thousand dollars more than If they were not
thus provided with water. 1t is high time, there
fore, for the great Agricultural Interest of the
country that the farmers of the north west should
be made aware of the fact that all the high and
dry prairies of the country, by the use Of this
cheap and simple device, can be made good stock
farms, and really more valuable than those pos
sessng these natural advantages for water, for
there is no waste land, aud the water can be pro.
vided directly at the points desired, in farm yards
and pastures. seA
Where is the farmer, then, that after knowing
he can thus increase the real value of his farm
from $500 to 81, eco, will he content to make 4
drudge of himself or employees by pumping wa
ter for stock?
After ten years experience in building and
recting many hundreds of these machines, and
Extensive acquaintance with the various attempts
made within the last thirty years to construct
self-regulating Wind Machine, we most fully be-
lieve that nothing has been ofeied to the
public equal to Hailadays Improved Mill.
They are so simple in their construction that
any common joiner can erect then. and attach
common farm yard pump. They can he stopped
instantly by means of lever on the upright tim
Der supporting the mill, and be arranged
that float will stop the Mil when tho tank is
full and start themselves again when the water is
used

The American Watch Company, of Waltham,
Mass, respectfully submit that their Watches are
cheaper, more accurate, less complex, more dura-
BILE, and better adapted for general use, and more
easily kept in order md repaired than any ether
structars, and therefore stronger, and less likely
to be injured than the majority of foreign watch

while in IN Eng lisA witch there are more than
700 parts: How they run under the hardest trial
watches can have, is shown by the following let

E GENTLEMEN-The watches manufactured by
you have been in use on this railroad for several
years by our enginemen, to whom we furnish
watches as part of our equipment There are
now some three hundred of them carried on eur
line and we consider them good and reliable
time keepers. Indeed, have great satisfaction
in saying your watches give us less trouble, and
have worn and do wear much longer without re-
pairs than any watches we have ever had in use
on this road. As you are aware, we formerly
trusted to those of English manufacture, of ac-
knowledged good reputation; but as class they
never keep time as correctly, nor have they done
as good service as yours. ~st - A-ist%l a.
In these statements am sustained by my pre-
decessor, Mr.. Lewis, whose experience extended
over series of years. Respectfully,
Ed w SAfD H W lLbIhhGS

We make now five different grades of watches,
named respectively as follows:
Appleton, Tracy d Co., Baitham Mass.
Waltham Watch Company, Waltham, Mass.

Home Watch Company, Boston, Mass.
All of these with the exception of the Home

Watch Company to be of the best material on
the most approved principles and to possess every
requisite for a reliable time-keeper. Every dealer
selling these watches is provided with the Com
pany's printed card of guarantee, which should
accompany each watch sold, so that buyers may
feel sure that they are purchasing the genuine
tice. There are numerous cOunterfeits and ini-
tations of our watches sold throughout the coun-
try, and we would caution purchasers to be on
their guard against imposition.

chased of watch dealers throughout the country.
