Cladding's Hay Elevator.
THE above engraving is intended to represent a HAY
ELEVATOR, or Horse Power Pitchfork, patented last
eeaaon by C. E. GLADDING, of Troy, Pa. This Elevator
possesses many important advantages over all other forks,
among which are the following The tines being allow
ed to drop to discharge its load, the tilting of the handle
as in other power forks, is avoided : hence, hay can te
unloaded with the utmost facility and ease into shed win
dows or beneath purlin beams, and many places where
other Horse Forks cannot he used. The "Elevator can in
all cases lie managed with greater ease than any other
Hcrse Fork. It is also well adapted to stacking. With
this Fork a ton of hav can be unloaded in from five to
seven minutes. This Elevator received the first premium
after thorough trial'and competition, at the last New York
and Pennsylvania State Fairs.
