GEISERs' PATENT SELF-REGuLA-
TING GRAIN SEPARATOR,
CLEANER AND RAGGFR.

With the latest Improved Triple Cleared Horse
Power, driven either by Gear or Belt.
No. ! is a eigbt-horse power, with cast iron
thresher frame and wrought iron and wood eylin-
der, sixteen inches in diameter and thirty-three
inches long. Trunk has ten inch rake crank and
seven rakes is thirty five inches wide, and deliy-
ers the straw on the second rake, these carry the
straw out on their tops and deliver il on the
stack cr which will deliver about thirty i've feet
beyond the feeder, on a stack fifteen TO eighteen
feet high, and can be easily managed to carry
the chat with the straw, deliver II in sepa-
rate place. The trunk and fan sides being closed,
10 eonfne the straw and chat, remedies all diff
culties in cleaning grain against windy weather.
II bags the grain by reasonable management, suf-
feiently clean for market, and its capacity, under
ordinary circumstances, is from twenty TO forty
bushes per hour, using eight horses and the same
number Of hands but to force the work under
favorable circumstance, il will tbresh from forty
10 fifty bushels per hour and with more ease and
agreeableness to hands than any other machine
in common use.
The No 2 is particularly adapted to the farmers
use in intending TO apply to any common lever
OF railway power; weighs 1900 pounds; has an
iron threshers frame, and cylinder, l2l inches in
diameter and Is inches long; delivers the clean
grain in bags or if desired, in a half bushel. II
delivers the straw fifteen feet from the feeder, or
if desired, can deliver the straw andchaf togeth-
er; viii thresb and clean, In good grain, ready for
market, from 100 to 175 bushels Of wheat, or from
300 70 500 bushels Of oats per day, using four or
six horses, and the same number Of hands; but to
force the work, under most favorable eircum-
stances, good grain, &C., will thresh and clean
considerable more. The Machine will thresh and
clean all kinds Of grain generally threshed with
the common machine, and requires no more horse
power, but in many cases does not run so
hard. 1t will apply very well to tRo-horse rail
way power.
Now here is what the Farmer and thresherman
Co. to srof from farm IN
thrash grain, with more satisfaction than any
other separator now in use, and why is it Be
cause this separator has self regulating Blast,
which prevents grain from blowing into the chat,
and also has self regulating feeder to feed the
cleaner and il has rollers and combs 10 the clean
er which prevents it from ehoaking. Why does
this machine so light, and give so little trOu-
BILE? Because there is less friction in the jour
nails and the rakes and fan are geared so that you
have no trouble with Belts breaking and slipping,
causing dust 10 fall into the wheat. Why does it
clean against the wind! Because the blast has
direct action on the grain aud the cleaner is so
well arranged that the wind has chance to
drive the dirt into the hopper Why is it built
permanently on two wheels and the front car
riage separate, ready 10 attach when necessary /!
Because it is more convenient in the barn without
the front carriage. lou can turn the machine or
run il from place to place more easily. Why has
it not got Elevators like some other machines
/ Because the Elevators carry the fifth back alter
nately into the cleaner which must eventually 20
into the good wheat or in the chat, and all know,
that filth should be kept separate for feed, &c,
we might as well keep shoyeling the Tailings
from under our hand fan into the hopper and ex-
pect to get the grain clean. Why is this separa-
tor more cleaner and satisfactory to work about
than others Because the Fan and Trunk Sides
are closed up to prevent the wheat chat and dust
from coming out and scattering over the floor,
causing waist and giving much trouble with dirt
and sore eyes, &c. Why do Threshermen get
more work with these separators than they do
with others Because this separator has all these
advantages and many more, which makes it a
separator suitable and a paying for all
/ farmers and Thrashermen that have grain to
thrash whilst in most cases farmers must suit
themselves to the machine, because the machine
viii not suit itself to the farmer. In short, this
is the cheapest most durable, reliably simple and
most agreeable to work about and the only sepaT-
ator that viii clean and bag the grain sufficiently
/ clean for market under all circumstances.
/ Farmers can rest assured that this machine is
no humbug, and judging from the high recon-
mendation Of farmers that are using them, we
must come to the conclusion that it Is the very
Machine that farmers want and will have as soon
as they have opportunity to appreciate and
attest its merits, for which we hope they viii give
us opportunity, as We are willing to be respon-
sble if it does not perform as represented in this
Circular. Shop prices Of Machines range from
S2I5, TO $40.
g-We warrant the machines to be as above
represented also against any reasonable defects
of material workmanship, sc.
