These machines have been well known and much
used by hrmorSin this county, more of them in use We
think than all Of Others, needs from us no oommendh-
tion, but we will specially mention aud call attention
to some improvements made in its construction, which
il was before. This machine heretofore has been the
only horse power threshing machine which was capa-
BILE Of beiag used as simple %thresher, a thTesher or
combined, or the cleaner may be used separately by
hand or power. Other combined machines have not
this advantage, that Is Of being used separately,
This machine as heretofore constructed was IN many
separate parts, which sometimes was u disadvantage In
setting up and running. Now by n little change IN ITS
construction, the number OF separate parts Is lessened
and by the use OF a few bolts the combined machine Is
rendered practically one frame possessed Of the advan-
tages Of a solid frame machine which losing none Of
tho advSptsgss Of using each Se6h part separately when Taa az,
world wide reputation Of these machines.
