JONES'S Patent for Renovating Beds and Mattresses, it gives me pleasure to testify to the thorough manner iu which it removes all impurities from the Feathers and Hair, and restores their original elasticity. One most important result of this mode of cleaning, consists in the destruction by healed steam of whatever organic germs of disease may be present, and the removal of the noxious emanations from the human body, which are absorbed and retained by beds long in use. Regarding this as a matter of considerable importance in a hygienic point of view, I would, therefore, cordially recommend the process, not only uuon the score of cleanli- ness, but as very materially contributing toward the maintaiuance of health.

The Proprietors, in ofTering this, their Retail Catiilogue of the latest and most ap- proved class of Labor-Saving Agricultural Implements and Machinery, 'to the Public and our man}- Friends and Customers, -would respectfully- beg leave to call their atten- tion to the fact that it is our desire to sacrifice every selfish consideration towards the improvement of our Implements and Machinery, and the introduction of new and (Labor-Saving Implements, in proportion as the progress of improvement in Agricul- ture advances, and the wants of the Farmer demand. The business of the House has been conducted in this city for nearly three-quarters •of a century, and is still carried on under the same name and firm-style that it bore when first established. The thorough knowledge of the wants of the Farmer and Planter, and the expe- rience in Manufacturing acquired during this long period, enables the firm to offer to the Farmers and dealers of the South, South- West and West, Implements and Machinery adapted to their wants, and on the most reasonable terms. We cannot, in the limited space of a Catalogue, enumerate all the Machines to be found in our Stock, but only mention those of the most importance to the Farmer. We can always sujjply any Machine or Implement our Customers may need, and at short notice. We employ only the most experienced mechanics (most of whom have been in our employ for many years, and a goodly number of them have served their apprentice- -ship in our shops). We use only the very best materials in all departments of our manufacture. In 1870 we built an extensive Factory on Hamburg and Grindall Streets. The imain building on Hamburg Street is one hundred and fifty feet long by forty feet wide, and three stories high. The bottom floor is occupied as a Machine shop, Plow :shop, with Planing Machines, Circular Saws and Champering Machines. The second story is used as a Wood-work shop, where are made all the frames and wood-work ■ of the different Machines. A part of this floor is set apart for what is called the Fan shop, where are made Wheat and Corn Fanning Mills, Grain Cradles, Cider Mills and Presses, etc. The third story is used as a Paint shop and storage room. Running at right angles with the main building is a building one hundred and forty feet long by thirty-six feet wide, the most of which is two stories high, and is •divided into Engine room, Boiler room. Grinding room and Blacksmith shop. In this, as well as in the main building, every department is sup(ilied with city water and the buildings are so arranged as to give a bountiful supply of light and air. These, together with the advantages of Labor-Saving Machinery, enable us to turn ■out work from 10 to 15 per cmt. cheaper than can be done by any similar establish- ment in this countrv.

HOBSE-POWER COM SHELLER AND CLEANER. This Shelter has Won the Laurels at every Agricultural Fair at which it was Exhibited. This i3 justly called the King of Shellers, it being the largest portable Sheller, and haying the greatest capacity of any Sheller made in this country. It is made entirely of iron, except the legs on which it stands (they being wood). It is in general lue in all parts of the South and West where Corn is raised to an extent, and is the most valuable psttern for large Plantations. Capacity from 1,500 to 2,500 bushels per day. Patent owned by Sinclair & Co., for all the Southern and Southwestern States. We have, within the last two years, applied a fan to this Sheller, which adds considerably to the efficiency of the machine. By means of the fan the Corn is cleaned as soon as shelled, and made all ready for market at one operation, thereby saving the labor and expense of second handling.. The machine is run exclnsively by Horse, Water, or Steam Power. Reading Sheller and Cleaner Price, $95. Reading Sheller, without Cleaner Price, $65> s R. Sinclair & Co.'s Pictorial IMPROVED DOUBLE SPOUT, OR WESTERN HAND CORN SHELLER. This Shcller has Taken, the Last Year, Ten First Premiums.

It is also double-geared on the outside of tlie frame, the cog gearing coming between the frame and the balance- wheel. This, gearing to- gether with a heavy fly- wheel, makes the Sheller run at least 30 per cent, lighter than a similar Sheller gear- ed in the old way.

We have recently improved this Sheller by the application of a complete Cleaning Attachment, by which the Corn is shelled and cleaned at the same time. The Cleaner consists of a Fan and a movable Shoe of Riddles or Screens, -which thoroughly separate all broken cobs, chaff, etc., leaving the Corn in as good condi- tion as when run through an ordinary Fan Mill. This Sheller -will «lso, when made without the Fan, thoroughly separate the cob from the Corn, and will give as good satisfaction as any Sheller of its size made. For simplicity of construction and ease of management we rank it amongst our most valuable machines. Capacity, by Horse Power, from 600 to 800 bushels per day. Capacity, by Hand Power (two hands), 400 bushels per day. Sheller and Cleaner (Horse Power), price $52. Sheller, without Fan (Hand or Power), price $38. 10 R, Sinclair & Co.'s Pictobial French Burr and Cologne Stone Plantation Mills. The difficulty of construct- ing a domestic Corn Mill, possessing all the requisites necessary for Plantation use, has occupied the attention of the Proprietors for several years. They are now able to inform their customers that the object is accomplished. The figure herewith repre- sents a machine every way adapted for grinding the finest quality of meal for market or family use, or for chopping feed for stock. There are numerous similar Mills made in this country, but nearly all of them fall short of the object — which is, a Mill requiring light draught, and one that will grind sufficiently fast, and fine enough, for all the wants required on a Plantation. But, to The Improvements and Advantages Possessed:— First: — The Stones (FrenCh Burr or Cologne) are cut to produce the least friction, at the same time to act on the grain in the most effectual manner. Second: — The feeding is performed by a simple and efficient device by which the quantity of grain can be regulated, as it passes from the Hopper to the Stones, in the most regular manner, thus producing an evenness and regularity of work performed. The Frame is made strong and substantial, out of the best White Ash. The Mill is also double-geared, made strong and heavy, so as to stand the resistance of almost any quantity of power applied. It is also supplied with a simple device by which the top stone can be raised or lowered in an instant, to regulate the fineness of the mate- rial ground. There are hundreds of these Mills in use, and to any one wanting a first-class Plantation Mill, we can recommend them with confidence. The following are the sizes most generally used on Farms and Plantations : 30 inch French Burr Mill Price $225. 26 inch " " " .

Tlie Vertical Crusher can be worked by two men or by horse power. They are generally used in South America, to which market we send quite a number, for the purpose of grinding rice, corn, etc. Some few are used in the United States by farmers who only want a small quantity of ground feed. Sheet-Iron Hopper, extra, $3. VERTICAL IRON WHEEL OR NEGRO CORN SHELLER. This Sheller is all iron (as shown by the cut), except the stand on which it sits, which is wood. The Corn is shelled by the wheel and a vertical spring. The Corn is thrown in on the side of the'wheel and is shelled very rap- idly ; in fact, as fast as two men or boys can feed it. It is one of the most substan tial S h e 1 1 e r s made, and is, as the >/'*''' name implies, the ne- gro's own vSheller, from the fact that it is so simple and strong that the most careless hand cannot well get it out of order. This Sheller is much used in the Gulf States. Price reduced to |18. 12 R. Sinclair & Co.'s Pictorial CHAMPION CORN AND COB CRUSHER. This cut shows the construction of this valuable machine. For farm and plantation use, Maynard's Improved Crusher is doubtless the most valuable machine that has been introduced to the notice of the farmer.' It is simply worked by one or two mules or horses attached to a wooden lever, thus saving the necessity and consequent cost and delay of employing a horse-power machine. The improvement principally consists in forming a more uniform crushing or grinding surface, and having the lower part of the cone and concave in rings, and cast separate from the main castings. Those rings are the portion of the grinding surface most liable to wear, and can be renewed at pleasure. The Machine is designed to grind Corn and Cob, Corn and Oats, etc., for stock, and should be used by all our practical farmers who feed Corn to stock. Capacity from 5 to 8 bushels per hour, depending on the condition of the corn and the application made. Price $45. And Descriptive Catalogue. 13 Corn Mill and Corn and Cob Crusher Combined. This Mill, as shown by the out, is made of cast iron, the Grinding Plates are construct- ed on an entirely new princi- ple, and made of chilled cast iron. The grinding works of this Mill, by their peculiar con- struction, wear very slow, and produce meal of the desired quality for making corn bread. The Mill is also capable of grinding corn and cob, or corn and oats, for stock, to any degree of fineness desired. The construction of the grinding works is horizontal; the running cylinder is coni- cal, having around its periph- ery a succession of spears or cutters, which, by the revolu- tion of the cylinder, come in close contact with irregular, spiral, sharp, square-edged cutters, attached to the concave, which gradually force the meal forward and out at the opposite end from •which the grain enters. When the cylinder or cutters wear to a dull edge, they may be brought to their original sharpness, simply by passing the requisite quantity of sharp sand through the Mill. These Mills are adapted to the Two-Horse Railway Power, or to the light Four- Horse Lever Power, and can be run by Water or Steam Power, and will grind from eight to twelve bushels per hour, according to the degree of fineness required and power applied. Price, with sieve arranged for sifting corn-meal for family use $45. HAND AND POWEK GKAIN, COFFEE AND SPICE MILL. This is a very simple and du- rable Mill, and can be run either by Hand or Power. When run by power it will grind some four or five bushels of grain per hour, quality coarse. It is not liable to get out of order, and when the grinding plates are worn out they can be replaced by others at a small cost.

The latest improvement, and the most valuable, made on our Thrashing Machine Cylinder, is the plan of attaching spiral bars (see figure), instead of the ordinary horizontal arrangement. There is an obvious reduction of draught, that the cylinder receives the straw faster ; consequently will thrash with greater rapidity ; that the spikes pass those in the concave alternately, produce less noise or surge— so objectionable in the parallel cylinder ; causes less wear on the boxes and axles, and less risk of derangement. Our cylinders are made with open wrought-iron bars, instead of the solid or plain sur- face, which causes an agitation of the air when running, and blows And Descriptive Catalogue. 15 the dust out with the chaff, instead of producing an atmosphere of dust at the mouth of the Machine — so annoying and injurious to the health of the feeder. These Machines are much used by our most popular farmers, both with and without the Straw-Carriers, and are such as we can recom- mend to all who need a first-class Thrasher. We make four (4) sizes, with and without Straw-Carriers, to suit the wants of our customers, viz : 30 inch, with Straw-Carrier complete, price $110. 25 " " " " '« 100. 20 " " " " " 35 16 " " " " « " go.

Endless Chain or Railway Horse-Power. This cut represents the Railway Horse-Power, much in use in all the Northern and Eastern States. It is well suited for small farms, for thrashing grain, cutting feed, wood, etc. They are simple in construction, strong and durable, and for small farmers a very good and convenient Power.

And Descriptive Catalogue. 17 o I O EH c^ rt ^ O The high esteem in which this machine is held l)y Farmers who have used them, for the last ten years, has induced us to mention it in our present edition, as still maintaining its old and well-earned reputation to-day, as it did ten years ago. This machine has taken several first-class premiums at all our Agricultural State Fairs, from 1855 to the present day, and 18 R. Sinclair &, Co.'s Pictorial is now held in higher esteem by our farmers of Maryland and Virginia than are most other Powers. The advantages claimed for the Triple-Gear Power are, that it will stand three times the pressure, and wear three times as long as any single-geared Power in use. This will be apparent from the following considerations : Eight horses, drawing IGO lbs. each, at the end of levers of ordinary length, exert a force of ten thousand pounds on the master-wheel of the Power ; in the single-geared Power this is all transmitted through a single pinion — the wear is consequently great, and the liability to break proportionate. In the Pelton Power, the cogs of the master-wheel are on the inner side, and gear into three pinions ; the strain and wear being equally divided between the three, is but one-third as great on each side as in a single-geared Power. Some thousands of these machines have been sold for the last twelve years in the States of Pennsylvania, Maryland and Vir- ginia ; and when properly made, give universal satisfaction. They are particularly adapted as a portable Power, as they are easily and conveniently transported from place to place, and the most unskilled farm hand can set them down for use. They will work equally as well on hillside as on level ground. They are particularly adapted to out-door exposure, as there is but little wood about them, and that of a kind that any carpen- ter can renew. The Powers made by us are each run several hours at our shops^ which insures their being in the best running order.

It is an improvement on all the Separators now made. The great objection to all Thrashers and Cleaners, as heretofore made, was their complicated character and liability to get out of order. In this machine all these defects are remedied. It is simple in its construction^ reliable in its working, and will not get out of order. Six mules give it power, and it takes but few hands to attend to it. As compared with Pitt's or Kussell's style of machines, it saves ten pulleys^ ten bearings, seven belts, as well as the revolving apron ; as compared with other Separators now in use, and have been in use in this State and Virginia for seve- ral years, it saves four pulleys, four bearings, two belts and a set of rakes. No Thrashing Machine ever introduced has so fully met the wants of the farmer^ and in every contest with the most approved Separators from the North and West our machine has been awarded the premium for simplicity of construction, ease of draught, clean and rapid thrashing. With little power ap- plied, they are without a rival. We make these machines of two sizes, one 22-inch drum or cylinder, and 34-inch Straw Car- rier, which has capacity in good wheat of 200 bushels per day ; the other size is 28-inch cylinder and 34-inch Straw Carrier, capacity 300 bushels per day of ten hours. We recommend the 28-inch cylinder Thrasher as the best and cheapest, capacity considered. We mount all of the above Thrashers on two wheels, so that they can be hauled by one or two horses from place to jilace, or from one farm to the other, by being attached to a dray, cart, or the front running gear of a farm Avagon. The prices quoted include the truck : 22-inch Thrasher and Separator, price $210. 28-inch " " " " 260. We warrant these machines to give satisfaction and do good Avork. Sinclair & Co.'s Spur-Gear Power. This is probably the oldest, and at the same time one of the best Stationary Horse Powers, for farm use, in the country. It is simple, strong and durable, and will last, with ordinary care, from sixteen to twenty years, in constant use. Most of the farmers of the Eastern and Western Shores of Maryland and Virginia are familiar Avith this Power for the last thirty-five years, and all speak of it still in terms of praise, many of them preferring it to more modern invented machines. We make three sizes, complete Avith extra gearing, viz : No. 1 — Four-Horse PoAver, price |125. No. 2 — Six or Eight Horse PoAver, price $175. No. 3 — Ten or TwcIa'c Horse Power, price $225.

It is particularly adapted to the farmers' use, being con- sidered by them the most con- venient and efficient Thrasher ^.,z^:.:j=,s?~=^^,^^..^-^,=-^=^^~^^,^^^^.==^ and Separator in use. It has a truck witn two wheelb, by which it can be conveniently transported from place to place with one or two horses. The Separator or Cleaner is on an entirely new principle, there being no riddles or screens used ; the grain, when separated from the straw, passes over spiral, grooved rollers. The wind from the fan, being directed immediately on the rollers, thoroughly separates the chaff from the grain. If the grain is free from filth the Thrasher will clean the grain suitable for market. The machine will thrash and clean all kinds of gram gene- rally thrashed with the common machine, and requires no more horse power. It is simple, easily managed, reliable, durable, and is con- sidered by us a first-class machine. There are two sizes of this Thrasher ; the large size requires the power of eight horses, and the small size the power of six horses. Capacity of Small Size, per day - - - 200 Bushels Wheat.

TTie Frame is made of one Solid Piece of Iron, has Steel Shafts, with a simple and powerful Gear, located directly in the centre of the frame, and under the driver's seat, to keep it free from dirt or sand, and so constructed that all parts can be removed from the Main Frame,iox ihc purpose of cleaning or repairing, without unscrewing a bolt. The Tongue, or Draft Pole, is so arranged in relation to the Frame and Finger- Bar as to entirely obviate side-draft, and prevent any weight upon the horses' necks; also to prevent any unnecessary pressure of the Finger- Bar upon the ground. The Finger-Bar is hinged directly to the Pole, by means of Wrought Iron supports, in such manner that any strain, created by meeting with an ob- struction, is directly communicated to the Draft Pole, instead of the Main Frame and Wo7-king Parts. By this new arrangement we not only obviate the liability of breaking the working parts of the machine, but by drawing directly from the shoe of the Finger-Bar we obtain a much lighter draft. It is completely under the control of the driver; he can raise up either end independent of the other, or both ends together; can cut over an obstruction three feet high, and by means of a lever he can fold the bar to pass a tree, or transport the machine, without leaving his seat or stopping his team. The Hinge of the Cutter-Bar is so arranged in relation to the Cutters and Guards, that should the latter strike a rock or stone it will pass over it without injury to the machine, or even the necessity of raising them from the ground. The Points of the Cutters and Guards can be elevated or depressed to cut lodged or standing grass on rough or smooth bottom. This is effected by an extremely simple device, which adds nothing to the complication of the machine or its cost. It is perfectly adjustable to cut any required height from the ground, either by steel runners under each end of Finger-Bar, or by a pawl and ratchet on the lever, by which you can cut over very rough, stony land, or bog meadow. We would invite every Farmer about to purchase a First-Class Mower to lay aside every preference he may have in favor of any other machine now in the market, and first give this a thorough examination and trial, believing this to be as FAR AHKAD OF ANY OTHER TWO-WHEELED MOWERS as they are ahead of the old style one-wheeled horse-killers.

The Wheat Fan is one of the most useful, as well as the most necessary machine on the farm. Every Farmer, however small his crop of grain, finds frequent use for it in cleaning Wheat, Corn, Oats, Seeds, &c. Its use will pay any farmer five times the iDrice paid for it, in cleaning his grain properly for market, in less thaji three years. We don't claim that we have the best Fan Mill in the world, hut we do clairii that we have a Fan that will clean as Avell, take out of wheat as much cockle, cheat, garlick, and filth, as any Fan made or sold in this country, besides claiming tliat our Fan is made of better materials, better workmanship, is stronger^ more durable, and better suited to large and small })lantations, than any Fan Mill in the country.

The above cut gives a correct view of our imj^roved Corn Planter and Seed Drill, which will be found the very best ma- chine of the kind ever offered to the farming public. Witli a man and horse, or small mule, from 10 to 12 acres per day can be planted, covered and rolled complete. This machine is very popular in Virginia, North and South Carolina, Georgia and other Southern States ; and of late years our Maryland farmers, seeing the advantages of drilled corn 'over tlie old-style checkered plan, have eagerly taken hold of the drill. To all of whom we can refer for their experience in drill- ing corn. This machine is long and favorably kno^vn, we having been making from 150 to 250 machines per annum for the last sixteen years. In the saving of labor alone, (without saying anything of the saving of seed,) it will pay for itself in less tlian two years for any farmer who plants 40 acres corn per annum. For simplicity, durability, ease of draugjit and easy manage- ment, it has no equal in tliis country. i^I^ICE, - - - . _ 330.

This Machine not only saves the labor of one man, but performs the work much better than the old way of plowing with the "single" or " double shovel " plows ; and it enables the aged and infirm to raise a crop of corn, who would not be able to endure the labor of walk- ing after the plow in the old way. It is no longer a question whether a Riding Cultiva- tor is a practical machine ; the question now is, Avhich is the best ? That is, Avhich does tlie best Avork ? Which is the most easily managed ?£•/. Which is the most durable ? Which is the most easily repaired ? In short, which is the most practical ? There is a variety of good Riding Plows in use, but we claim for the Buckeye many important points superior to any Sulky Corn Cultivator now in use. The principle of plowing corn with this machine is that of the "Double Shovel," which is admitted by practical Corn growers to be the best. Crooked rows can be plowed as well as straight ones ; it being 80 arranged that the operator can, at will, move at once all four of the shovels eleven inches either way, without lifting them, and thus avoid tearing up hills that are out of line. The move- ment is made with the feet upon the beam when the operator is riding, as shown in the small cut, (next page,) and by lever " F " while the operator is walking. The operator can either ride or walk, and guide the machine without any alteration. A greater or less width is obtained by changing the bolt in one end of the rod that connects with the swinging bar "GG." The shovels can be instantly raised out of the ground for the purpose of turning at the ends, and cleaning the plows of trash, and in passing from field to field, by means of the crank C And Descriptive Catalogue. 3§ The Plow is provided with shields to protect the young corn.^ from being covered during the first working. These shields can be taken off when the Corn becomes larger. High Wheels and Axles. The axles are sufficiently high to pass over Corn, Tobacco of-' Cotton, the last plowing, without breaking it down. To Prevent the Plow from Breaking. It is so arranged that when any of the shovels strike a stump, root, stone, or other hard substance, it will break a wooden pin, in the lower end of the brace, whicli allows the shovel to turn back, and thus prevent breaking the Plow. This avoids the necessity of making the Plow so heavy that either shovel must stand the force of two horses. To Regulate the Depth. Change the pins in the tops of the standards 'AA.' For Marking Out Corn Ground. Take off the front shovels and adjust the rear shovels to the width you desire, and you will find it to be just the thing to mark out your ground before planting. It is better adapted for this purpose than any other Plows, for the reason that the operator has control of the side motion of the rear as well as the front shovels. A Cultivator for Plowing in Wheat. This machine is well adapted for plowing in Wheat and Grain of all kinds, stirring fallow ground, and stirring fall plowing for Corn and other crops in the Spring. For this purpose there is an extra or fifth Shovel attached in front of the other Shovels. We could give many Certificates attesting the superiority of the Buckeye Corn Cultivator, but it only needs to be seen by any practical farmer to satisfy him that it is just the article he wants. "Certificates" and "Premiums on Implements are about "played out," for no machine now-a-days is so poor but. it can boast of Premiums and Certificates. We can recommend the Cultivator with confidence to our customers as the best of the kind in use. PRICES. , With 4 Shovels, for Cultivation price $50.00 " 5 " " Seeding Grain, &c " 55.00 40 R.

Too miicli can- not be said in its favor. This machine is very popular in England and France, where it is considered the leading machine on every large farm for the preparation of the land ibr the respective crops. No harrow can possibly reduce plowed land to an equal fine state as the Clod Roller ; neither is there any implement so valuable for rolling wheat in the spring. This machine is invaluable on stiff clay lands, which are inclined to run together in the form of clods and hard lumps. It is particularly useful to all our tobacco growers. In the island of Cuba the tobacco growers could not well get along without it. This machine is highly prized by our i)ractical farmers of Maryland, Virginia, Tennessee, and is used in parts of New York and Pennsylvania. Tliis machine has always received a first-class premium at every State or county agricultural fair at which, we have exhibited it. It is such a machine that every large practical farmer should own. The cut will explain the character of the machine. Clod Crusher, 5 feet wide, without box, price $85 00 " " " " with box, price 100 00 There are 12 sections in each roller.

The cylinder is made of cast iron, in the ends of which are fitted double- bearing cast iron heads, through which a solid two-inch wrought iron axle passes, making it the strongest arrangement for the purpose ever invented. The surface of the cylinder is studded with small knobs or breakers, which run in cylindrical spiral lines along the surface of the, cylinder ; these sj^iral knobs pass through a comb of teeth or cogs placed one on each side the bottom of the hopper, the action of which breaks and pulverizes all hard substances to a fine state. The machine will distribute all kinds of Lime, either stone or oyster-shell, in the most perfect manner. It will save twice its cost, in way of labor, in two years jto any farmer who uses any quantity of Lime. Price/ .... $120.00.

It is now only in its tenth year since the date of the Patent, and we venture to say, without the fear of contradiction, that there is no Mill in the country that has received as much patronage as the above named Mill in the same time. We made several hundreds of these Mills last year, and could have sold many more were we able to manufacture in time. The demand increases for them every year, and we are safe in saying that they are considered by all wlio have used them the best Mill in the country. A good sized boy can ivorh it u'itli ease, and grind from 20 to 30 busliels apples per hour. It is the simplest Mill in use, and the only one that ivill grind grapes ivithout breaking the seed. 44 R. Sinclair & Co.'s Pictorial It possesses great advantages over the old style Mills now in use, and needs only a trial to satisfy any one that it will perform all that it is recommended to do. The following are some of its principal features : 1st. It has a lotary iron knife cylinder which works between' a stationary row of knives in the side of the hopper, by which the apples are cut into small pieces. 2d. It has two iron crushing rollers, with angular flutes, which receive the cut apples from the cutting knife cylinder, by which they are effectually crushed to a pumice. The cutting and crushing process in this Mill is its greatest point of excel- lence'over all other Mills that merely grate the apples. 3d. It will do more work in a given time, with less power, than any^ Mill now in use ; grinding finer and more uni- formly. 4th. It is a AVine as well as a Cider Mill, and in fact the only one we know of that will properly grind drapes without break- ing the seed. For simplicity, compactness, strength, economy of power and quality of Avork performed, challenges comparison. It is at once " the Machine " so greatly needed, and should be owned by every farmer, gardener and fruit grower in the country. There are many thousands of tliese Mills now in use in Mary- land, Virginia, and North Carolina, all of which have given entire satisfaction to our customers. We make two sizes of the above Mill. Tlie large size is in- tended to be run either by hand or power, and is of large ca^mc- ity. The small size is for hand power, and is suitable for farm- ers and others who only make a moderate quantity of Cider and Wine. This size, however, can be run by power, and when run to its full capacity will make a large quantity per day. We can recommend the above Mill as one of the best in the country.

Stewart, of New York, wherein he gives, as the result of several years' experience, the following summary : First. It renders mouldi/ hay, straw and corn-stalks perfectly sweet and palatable Animals seem to relish straw taken from a stack which has been wet and badl v dam- aged for ordinary use, and even in any condition except "dry-rot." Steamimj will restore tts sweetness. When keeping a large stock, we have often purchased stacks of straw which would have been worthless for feeding in the ordinary way and have been able to detect no difference after steaming, in the smell, or relish with which it was eaten. _ Second. It diffuses the odor of the bran, corn-meal, oil-meal, carrots or whatever is mixed with the food through the whole mass, and thus it may cheaiil'v be flavored to suit the animal. Third. It softens the tough fibre of the dry corn-stalk, rye straw, and other hard material, rendering it almost like green succulent food, and easily masticated and digested by the animal. Fourth. It renders Beans and Peas agreeable food for horses, as well as other animals, and thus enables the feeder to combine more nitrogenous food in the diet of his ani.nals. Fifth. It enables the feeder to turn everything raised into food for his stock without lessening the value of his manure. Indeed, the manure from steamed food decom- poses more rapidly, and is, therefore, more valuable than when used in a fresh state Manure made from steamed food is always ready for use, and is re-rardcd by those who have used it as much more valuable for the same bulk than that made from uncooked food. v. i uiu Sixth. We have found it to cwre incipient Afat'c? in horses, and horses havin"- a cough for several months, at pastures, have been cured in two weeks on steamed food It has a remarkable effect upon horses with a sudden cold, and in constipation." 4 50 R. Sinclair & Co.'s Pictorial Horses fed upon it seem much less liable to disease, in fact, in this respect it seems to have all the good qualities of grass, the natural food of animals. Seventh. It produces a marked difference in the appearance of the animal, at once causing the coat to become smooth and of a brighter color, regulates the digestion, makes tlie animal more contented and satisfied, enables fattening stock to eat their food with less labor, and consequently requires less to keep up the animal heat, giv- ing working animals time to eat all that is necessary for them in the intervals of labor, and this is of much importance, esi)tcially with horses. It also enables the feeder io fatten animals in one-third less time. Eighth. It saves at least one-third of the food. "We have found two bushels of cut and cooked hay to satisfy cows as well as three bushels of uncooked hay, and the manure in the case of the uncooked hay contained much more fibrous matter unneu- tralizcd by the animal. This is particularly the case with horses. These have been the general results of our practice, and we presume do not materially differ from that of others who have given cooked food a fair trial. Heretofore the appliances for steaming feed have generally been of a temporary character, (except where feeding has been done on so large a scale as to warrant the outlay for expensive sta- tionary boilers) ; usually it has been done with kettles or caul- drons with closely fitting covers that have to be removed to refill with water, and to which there are many other objections. It will at once be seen that to come into general use a boiler should be made that is jjerfectly safe, j^ortable, low j^ressure, with reliable water-feeder , and have no intricate parts, such as cannot be comprehended by the most inexperienced. We have no hesitancy in saying that the Anderson Steamer has all these requirements. It is made of wrought iron, as thoroughly riveted and finished as the best high-pressure steam engine boilers ; has a reliable automatic or self-acting water- feeding apparatus^ safety-valve, vacuum-valve, steam and water gauge cocks complete, making it perfectly secure against ex- plosion. It is peculiar in construction, being, in fact, one complete double boiler within another, the two communicating, one with the other. The fire-space is inside of this, thus giving an extraor- dinary amount of fire-surface in proportion to the size, No. 3, or medium size, having 3,853 square inches fire-surface. It is set on a cast-iron base, making it as secure from fire as un ordinary stove. Weighs from 300 to 500 lbs., and is there- fore portable, and can be used in the open air or in any building where there is a flue sutficiently large to receive the smoke-pipe. Having so large a fire-surface it requires but little fuel, and all the attention necessary is that the water-tank is kej^t sup- plied, and the fire kept up. The most inexperienced man or boy can soon learn to use it with perfect safety. REASONS WHY THE ANDERSON STEAMER iS THE BEST. 1st.

Sir : — In reply to your question of \vli.'\t difference I find between feedinj? raw and cooked feed, I would say, I feed 21 hogs 26 bushels of corn (72 lbs. ears to the bushel), shelled, ground and cooked. It fed them 13 days; they gained 520 pounds, or a triiie less than two pounds per day. I then fed the,same hogs 25 bushels of the same kind of corn, ground and soured. It fed them eight days ; they gained 260 pounds, or a trifle over one and a half ])ounds per day. I weighed my hogs in bo'ih instances before commencing on each kind of feed, and set it down in my scale-book, and weighed them when each kind was fed out You may judge I Avas surprised at the result. In one case I made 20 pounds of pork from 72 pounds of ear corn, in the other ton and a half. My corn cost me 75 cents per bushel, and I sold my hogs for eight cents, live weight. In the one case I got $1.60 for my corn, in the other I got 83 1-5 cents. After deducting 75 cents — the price of iny com — I have as profit for feeding, in the one case 85 cents, in the other 8 1-5 cents. It will be seen from tiie above the gain was not so much difference per day as in the time the^- gained. In the one case they gained nearly two pounds per day for thirteen days, in the other they gained a triiie over one and a half pounds for but eight days. With pork at eight cents per ])ound I gained 76 4-5 cents on every bushel 1 feed by steaming, and I can save enough in 360 bushels to more than pay for a No. 3 Steamer, after paying for extra trouble in cooking it. I have used a Cast-Iron Steamer for three years. It is better than none; but of little value in comparison to the No. 3 Anderson Steamer which I now have. From actual experi- ence I think tliere is as much, or more, benefit derived by cooking vegetables, such as potatoes, pumpkins, and the like, as in cooking meal. I can cheerfully recommend your Steamer to all farmers and feeders, as being just what they want, and something they can not well aflbrd to do without. Respectfully yours,] C. J[. CLARK.

Every Farmer Should Have One. West Liherty, 0., Feb, 8, 1871. Mr. V. D. ANnERSON. — Dear Sir: I bave been using one of your Steamers, and I consider it tbe best tbing'for cooking feed for stock that 1 bave ever seen. It takes but very little fuel. The cobs from tbe corn you steam will about keep up the fire. I tbink steaming is tbe [iroper plan for cooking feed. I have cooked in kettles, but it would stick and burn, and much of the feed was wasted, besides it took at least four times as much wood and time as your Steamer, to cook the same quantity. E.xpcrience has proved to me that cooking feed for stock will save at least one-third of tbe grain, and the stock will be much healthier and grow much faster. Every farmer should bave one of these Steamers. Ycr3' truly yours. From a Butcher. JOHN NEWELL. Aurora, III , 18T0. I used tbe Steamer I purchased from you — " Anderson's Universal," No. 3 — about niv butchering, beating my water and boiling the oft'als of tbe shop. I kill from I'i to' 14 bead of cattle per week, G to 1'2 bogs, and 20 sheep and lambs. I bave saved $120.00 per year in grease. 1 keep 50 hogs and feed tbem on the offall after cook- ing. It docs not cost me 50 cents per week to keep the hogs. I run the Steamer every day except Saturday, and use 300 pounds of coal per week, and always bave hot water for scalding my hogs. Yours, L. HAYWARD. CooKESviLLE, Wis., June 20, 1870. You ask me bow I like my Steamer, purchased of you la November. In reply, I would say, it does all and more than I expected. I bave used it in cooking food for from 8(J to 150 bogs, and am satisfied tbat I save, in corn-meal, one-half in feed, besides my bogs do better and grow fal^ter. I am satisfied I can grow a hog up to 200 pounds weight in one-half the time that I can on raw feed. 1 have used it in steaming potatoes and whole grain, and find it a great saving; and for heating water tor butchering and other purposes, it beats anything t ever saw. I can safely recommend it to all farmers and feeders as being a safe and practical Steamer, and one that every farmer needs. CHARLES MILLER. Fun to Make Pork. Batavia, III., July 23, 18T0. Dear Sir: Your favor of Feb. 24 is just received, and I hasten to reply. You ask how we like your Steamer. In reply, I wish to state tbat it more than fills the bill. We are cooking for 125 hogs. It requires but four hours a day to keep a supply of feed on hand. The cobs "more than supply the fuel for it. Having had a good opi)ortunity to see the diflerent Boilers and Steamers for cooking feed, we do not hesitate to pronounce your Steamer the Dexter of the age. With a Nicholas ^^■ind- Mill, Lballenge Feed-Mill, and an Anderson Steamer, it is nothing but fun to make ^'^''^' L. P. BARKER & CO. . Nora, III., Nov. 22, 18G9. Dear Sir:— I have not been using your Steamer very long, though I can say positively it is tbe best thing I ever saw of the kind, and is entitled to every thing you claim for it. I do say, because I know it, that the cobs will cook all the corn "that comes off tbem, I can save nearly half my corn by cooking it. I can do cook- And Descriptive Catalogue. 53 ing witliout sweating or stirring to keep it from burning on, as I had to do with the so-called Agricultural Boiler," which I iiave used, and can do the cookin<^ in one- quarter of the time, and with one-fourth of the fuel. Yours truly, J. n. HYNES. The Steamer Saved It. Farmincjtox, III., Feb. 15, 1870. I bought of A. K. Montgomery one of your No. 3 Anderson Steamers. Have used It in feeding some 100 head of fattening hogs, and have some four or live hundred bushels more corn left than I e.vpected. Thk Stea.mer savkd it. It is all and more than I e.xpected. Yours, &c., A. J. IIARLAM. Camuen Mills, III., Oct, 22, 1870. Gentlemen : This is to certifv- that I have bought one of your Steamers from vour Agent, Joseph Hardy, and am feeding one hundred and thirty hogs, and three milch cows, who cat night and morning two pails each, and I feel certain that the hogs nave done better on the steamed food than thev would have done on twice the amount of raw. Any one wishing to see it operate can cill at the CamJen Mill. Yours truly, H. P. BEATTY. Safe and Practical Money-Making Machine. Ln-dianai'olis, Ind., Feb. 24, 1870. This is to certify that I am using one of Anderson's Universal Steamers for cooking reea for dairy purposes, and can say that I am very highly pleased with it, and can sately recommend it to all dairymen, and every one that is feedino- stock. I am con- iment that it will give general satisfaction. My cows gained rapidly in milk, and nave clone much better in every way since I have been cooking their feed, and on at least one-lourth less feed, than they had before. I have tested ihe Steamer tuoroughly, and know it to be a safe, practical, and money-making machine. Very truly yours, JAMES MUSE. Pays for Itself in Ninety Days. Oregon, Ogle County, III., Feb. 15, 1870. You want to know how my Steamer docs. I would say, it is in all respect* satis- mctory. My experience of the Winter warrants me in making the foUowino- state- ment : . ° ° 1st. It is economical as to time— I can cook three barrels of food per hour ; economical as to fuel- 1 can cook three barrels of feed with 25 lbs. soft coal, or an armful of good wood one foot long; economical as to quantity of food necessary to grow or fat hogs or cattle— I actually save at least one-third the stock eats ; does them more good than the whole fed raw. 2d.

Dry Creek Settle.ment, Linn Co., Iowa, Dec. 7, 1870. Gentlemen : The No. 2 Anderson Universal Steamer that I bought of you gives t e t,en/ best sansfactwn. I had made up my mind previous to i,ui chasing Steamer, that! would get an Agricultural Boiler. 1 wouldn't take a Boiler as a gift now and do without my Steamer. Some of my neighbors desired to see the Steamer 54 R. Sinclair & Co.'s Pictorial worked ; I cooked three barrels of shorts and corn-meal in 45 minutes ; one of my neighbors who timed me, has since purchased one of your Steamers. I cheerfully recommend your Steamers to all my friends. Very respectfully, DAVID JOH^'SON. Cheese Factory. Lakk Mills, Wis., Jan. 5, 18V1. You asked me in regard to the capacity of my Ko. 4 Anderson Steamer, and whether it gives satisfaction. In reply, I have to say, it has proved itself capable of doing all the work needed. I used it at my cheese factory during the month of November. I was then running but one vat of 4,500 pounds. The first half of the month the vat was full each morning, the temperature being sometimes as low as 50 deg. I had no difficulty in heating it as quickly as is needed. I am satisfied from my experiments with the No. 4, that it is capable of doing the work for our largest cheese factories. I have no hesitation in saying that I think your Steamer the most economical plan for doing the heating of cheese factories that I know of, doiug the most work with the least fuel. I am, yours truly, STEPHEN FAVILL. Mr. N. C. Hill, the well-known dairyman of Ottumwa, Iowa, says; Your Steamer- gives iierfect satisfaction, and is all you claim, and is satisfied he can save the price of one every si.x months in cooking feed for his cows.

It is the only implement that ■pulls ike tveeds and thoroughly i)ulverizes the soil ; runs close to the rows and takes out all the weeds not directly in line of the plants, without covering them, however small, and throws tlie earth up to or away from the rows. It is readily adjusted to clean the space hetween rows from G to 15 inches apart at one passage. Its great superiority over other weeders consists in the adjust- able rakes, with sharp angular teeth set at an acute angle to the rows, in the shape of the slotted iron cultivator frame, and of the three cast steel cultivator teeth, used in combination, with which the operator cuts close to the rows and takes away all the weeds as fast as he can walk and shove the machine, which leaves the ground as even and fine as a flower garden. With it Onion Growers and Market Gardeners may largely increase their sowing without danger of being swamped witli weeds. Every Machine lias two rakes and tliree cultivator teeth. which make a Combined Cultivator and Weeder. !^S"For all small-drill culture, it is as much superior to the hoe as the mowers and reapers are to the scythe and cradle.

Nellis' Harpoon Horse Hay Fork, IMPROVED GR51ATEST RECORD IN THE History of Agricultural Implements. THIRTEEN (13) FIRST PREMIUMS Were awarded upon our Unloading Apparatus, during the Fall of 1869. Successfal in Every Trial and Exhibition at Nine (9) different State Fairs. Nine (9) First Premiums upon Rogers' Original Harpoon Horse Hay Fork Improved, and Four (4) First Premiums upon Nellis' Stacker and Loader, (the latter was awarded first premium in every instance where a premium was offered upon the Schedule of the Societies,) and in addition thereto, at nearly all of the different Fairs we visited or caused to be visited, our goods were awarded Honorable Mention, by the Executive Committees, who deemed it their duty to facilitate parties in securing the best and the most Practical Implements. 76 R. Sinclair & Co.'s Pictorial We pride ourselves in presenting to the public this season a Horse Fork Pulley superior in most respects to any yet introduced to the farming public. The casing is made of wrought iron, the pin of cold rolled iron, and the wheel of wood, prepared by a process known only to our- selves. It only weighs about one and a half pounds, and all swivel, therefore, can.be used at any place desired. We are confident that it will meet the endorsement of every farmer who uses it. Patented March 1, 1870. This simple and practical device will overcome the great inconvenience and danger that has been experienced in put- ting up and taking down Horse Hay Fork Pulleys ; also vari- ous other purposes in which the farmer has frequent occa- sion for its use. It is novel in its construction, and requires but a few moments to become familiar in putting it up or taking it down, or changing from one point to another, which can be done in a moment's time without a ladder, thereby enabling the operator to convey and deposit the hay at almost any desired point or direction. It is deemed indispensable by all farmers who have become familiar with its convenience, as its nominal cost is no consideration as com- pared to its value and advantages.

This Planter has been greatly improved since last year, and now is not only the neatest and most perfect working machine, but also one of the most durable ever offered to the public. In order to decide the question of durability beyond a doubt, a number of them have been run by machinery at the rate of 90 strokes per minute for 10 days, (which would equal the planting of about 200 acres.) When taken down and submitted for in- spection tliey showed very little wear, and any of them would undoubtedly last to plant a thousand acres. The case is a Sheet Iron Tube 3 indies in diamefer, the plun- ger being a spiral steel rod supplied with a cast iron foot. It cannot give out or clog. It feeds at the bottom, the corn being agitated to prevent any possibility of its missing. It weighs only 4 lbs., and is so perfectly simple that it cannot get out of order, and needs no skill in using. Can be used single or double at will, spreads the corn evenly and regularly over a space of three inches, and is so constructed that the operator can see the corn deposited in the ground. Has a stop to regulate the depth and covers the corn. Price, ----- $4.00. R. Sinclair & Co.'s Pictorial Ts^rw:mr ^mnr t&Arace rods, and are constructed in the very best manner. Any farmer needing a good, substantial Harrow for rough lands, we would advise him to buy the Scotch Hinge. aEDI3ES' HI^aE HA^RRO^W. The G-eddes' Harrow is made of two angular frames, con- nected by wrought iron hinges in the centre, so that it adapts itself to an uneven surface, and either side may be conveniently elevated to free it from stones, sods, &c., while the harrow is moving along, without distuibing the operation of the other half; and one part may be fulded u[)<)n tlie other in passing stones, between stum])s, fruit ti-ees, &c. The arrangement of the teeth in the fi-ame is such that each one operates distinctly from the others, and the number of im- pressions made on tlie soil will be equal to the number of teeth, and at equal distances.

The broad rear tooth effectually disposes of grass and weeds, cutting off or root- ing up all that comes in its way ; is a thorough pulverizer of the surface, sifting the eartli and Aveeds through its iron prongs or fingers in the rear, leaving tlie weeds on tlie surface to wilt and die, and the ground level and mellow. For hoeing carrots, turnips, &c., where the rows are narrow, the side teeth are taken out, and the rear tooth, with the forward one as a director to guide the instrument, hoes and mellows the ground between the rows perfectly. rice. .$12 00 CULTIVATORS WITH CAST IRON HOES.
