Improved Iaay.Making Machines.

The models of new stacker and a new
"bull-rake" have been on two or three oc-
casions of late exhibited in Williams
port to large number of stockraisers
and farmers, and has been pronounced by
all to be superior to anything they had
heretofore seen in that line. The models
have stood some hard tests. According
to tests made with the stacker. an 800-
pound pony will raise half-ton quite
easily Some of the worst drawbacks to
the other stackers are entirely overcome
III the new machine. Among the new
principles applied in this stacker are the
foliowing:
1. The teeth of the carrier sit fiat on
the ground to receive the load. All the
other stackcrs that have been at work in
this vicinity are about foot high at the
back and slope downward to the front
Therefore, when the rake leaves the load
on the stacker and backs out, the load is
as apt to slip off of the carrier as off Of
the rake, thus causing considerable
trouble and delay.
2. The load moves as easily at the start
as it does aft ter it has passed part way up
tho carrier.
8. The load may be placed entirely on
one side and carried up and dumped
without causing any side draft or the
least tipping OF the machine.
4. That hay piled up to the top end of
the stacker cannot prevent the carrier
dumping the load and coming back into
position.
The stacker is light, durable and easily
constructed AS soon as the load is
dumped the carrier will tip back into po-
sition and lower to the ground as soon
as the rope is Stacked.
The rake is light and simply construct
ed and durable, having two points in its
favor not shown in other rakes, viz:
1. Each tooth is held down by a
spring, allowing the tooth 10 raise if it
comes in contact with stone or any OBJ
| stacle where, if it were held solid, il
| would either break the tooth or raise the
other teeth, causing it to pass over the
hay.
2. That it can be adjusted to any size
Of load Instantly, from size of load gen.
orally raised by stacker (averaging
from five to eight hundredwciehD up to
twice that amount Loads are easily
raised on to wheels with one le yer by q
man on the seat.
The above described improved ma
chimes are the work Of Mr.. E. J. Thurber,
of Williamsport, who has applied for pat.

These rates will enable those desiring
