Lightning rods*
To all who intend protecting their property from
LIGHTNING, a few facte may not be unwelcome.
THE ELECTRO MAGNET LIGHTNING ROD
has been before the pnbllc for twenty years; has been the
means of saving a vast deal of property and many lives,
and has never in a 6incie instance failed to meet the high
est expectations of its value. Hundreds of our own citi
zens can testify from their own knowledge of its ability
to protect property in safety; who have been eye witnesses
where bnildings public and private, churches and school
houses, have been 6aved from destruction —the rod receiv
ing and carrying harmless to the ground, strokes which
but for them would have caused the total ruin of the
building and all within it. a
The superiority of these rodi over auy others in'uee,'
has been testified toby meiv w boV ve n 0 superiors in
general science or in this department. Recommendations
to the number of six thousand nan besennat the factory.
The United States Patent Office is protected by my Rods,
having been selected from all others in use as the best and
most reliable. Cou.-idoriog the character and position of
the men who have charge of that institution, no higher
testimony could be desired.
Persons residing at a distance should be on their guard
against a class of swindlers who by falso representations
of every description, seek to mislead the purchaser.
Where my agents sre uot personally known as 6ucb, the
only safe plan is to apply, by letter or otherwise, at the
Factory.
Weather Vanes, Cardinal Points. Spire Rods, and
all manner of SCROLL and FANCY IRON WORK, to suit

most durable manner at the lowest cost prices.

doing their own work, and having purchased their fixtures
at very low prices, in consequence of which their expenses
will be less than any other establishment of the kind here,

PRATT’S PATENT STEEL TOOTH
E A 7 A N D GRAIN RAKE.
PATENTED BY RANDALL PRATT.
This Rake has taken tfie First Premium at Nine different
Exhibitions.
After toiling and experimenting for many years, we have
finally succeeded in getting up a RAKE that is perfectly
adapted to rake both Grain and Grass, each tooth being
fastened on a ferrel so ns to admit of its raising and lower
ing to suit uneven surfaces with an independent cleaner.
The public are already aware that this RAKE is unri
valled in any market, and-is admitted by every person that
has seen it work (and who have seen.other different ma
chines work) to be the very best Rake now in use.
The large number sold by us last year, and the efforts of
different parties to claim the right to sell, Is of itself a most
convincing proof of its superiority.
We guarantee to every purchaser our indisputable right
to sell the said Rake.

Mr. John B. Ebb —Dear Sir:
After having used the McCormick Reaper and Mower
for a season, we most unhesitatingly say that it is a very
good Mower, and as a Reaper, it is not equalled by any
other Reaper that has come under lts
construction is simple, and it is easily kept in repair; we,
therefore, take pleasure in Btrongly recommending It to the
formers of our county who desire a Mower and Reaper
combined in one Machine, as the very best that can be
obtained. Respectfully Yonrs,

C. Pierce: —I used Allen’s Mower last Season. I was
better pleased with it the more I used it. I was surprised
that it required no more power, (ray grass was unusually
heavy,) my two horses did not worry at all. I would advise
my fellow farmers it they want a perfect Mower, to take
Allen’s Machine. C- B. HERR.

Caleb Pierce:—l have been'using the New York Reaper
for four years, and like it very well. I would not be with
out it for double the cost. I also got one of Allen’s Patent
Mowers and cut all my grass with it. I have cut fine
meadow grass, and found it to work well. I recommend
this machine to do better work than wo can get done with
the scythe. DAVID 0. HERR.

tbeir great advantage to call and examine the /MRQ

most reasonable terms possible. This we find
the better and most advantageous course for all parties.—

the more universally it can and will be used.” Then the
conclusion is, that when we buy cheap, we muitsellcheap,
simply kilowing ourselves a reasonable profit.
