Samuel Townsend, Esq,
Dear Siir:-It was quite disap-
pointment to me this morning when !
learned that the shipment of peaches to
England had not turned out as / ex-I
pected, 1t is to be regretted that they
did not arrive in sound condition i
bat the cause is evident and easily
remedied.e As you no doubt know, it
was due entirely to- the giving out of
the ice, So far as our ability to carry
the peaches is concerned, there is not
the least question. II was my inten-
ton and. my endeavor to rcffigerate the
peaches for SO or 48 hours before the
sailing'of the ship, thus removing all
the heat before starting, making it only,
necessary to maintain the temperature
already obtained i; but It was impossible
for ME 70 do 50, owing to lack IF tinfie. !
! mapositivestbat if the lpeacbes had
been, thoroughly chilled before starting
the 15 tons of ice would have been
more than sufficient TO carry them over
safely. IT Tie rroom had been filed
with warm meat there Is not the least
douhtiin4my mind but that there would
hsveabeen ice eneughto keep it, j 1 am
thoroughly satisfied on this point from
nay own experience in Shipping. t is,
very evidsht, from this trial, that there
islalvefy large amount Of eheat to be
overcome in chilling peaches-- much
more than in meat The consumption
Of ice comes right in at the start. for
the first two days !; after that. all the
heatshaving been removed, it only re-
quiressice sufficient to keep the temper
ature ydowns and the quantity necessary
to dol is very small. If there had
only been 8, or 4 tons more ice this
shipment would have turned ont differ
entity; but such things will occur. I
trust that youedo not feel discouraged
over the result, for there is no discour-
agement in it.. but rather. encourage
ment; for has it NOT proved that, we can
carry peachesf Now that you have
the evidence Of the practicability Of our
method, / hope that you will make use.
Of it. Let; me hear from you. Yours
truly. john J. BATE. !.

Grain, consisting of one gum and one iron

arrangement made, giving you an even and
regular distribution Of grain at all times Can
sow any amount of grain from peck to two

"a. The Patent Spring Hoes, having Gum

perfect gum spring arrangement made), there

struction that the axle will go over without
in any way interfering with the working Of

Of Spring Bar, for Sowing the grain deep or

other Drills. fs,5...-t ,Se, ,et.5ss5 ats

Is possible 10 make one, having one race
showing l-l6' part of an acre, and another
face registering the acres.
9Th. The Patent Arles are so constructed
that the bearings arefon the outer and inner
parts of the spindle, causing the Drill to run
lighter to tue team, and more steady than if
bearings were on centre ofspindle. st
7th. All we can say for the Patent Guaao
or Fertilizer Auachment is that it is the only
Drill which will SOW or distribute properly
all kinds of fertilizers in all conditions,
THE BEST also has Patent Hoe Shyter, by
which Boots can be changed from straight to
zigzag line, or vice versa, while seeding
along. The Grass Seed attachment is perfect.
In fact, it would be beimpossible to give all the
good and superior points, possessed By, this
Drill, here, without occupying too much
space. Suffice it to say, that our Drill is just
what is claimed for it .oa, +f fs,,..
