These Powers possess conveniences and advantages pos sessed by no other power. EMERY'S NEW PATENT THRESHER AND CLEANER This a new Machine, and has not before been intro duced into this region. It has no endless chain straw carrier, but separates all kinds of grain thoroughly from the straw, by a combination of Pitts' Endless Canvass Celled Apron, a new Improved Revolving Picker, and the well known Vibrating Riddle. It is a simple, durablt and efficient Machine, will thresh rapidly and clean thor oughly, without wasting, all kinds of grain. It will not choke, rnn easily and steadily, without jumping, and is warranted to be superior to the common Rake Cleaner now in use. It remains only to be seen and tested, to be pronounced by every experienced band at threshing, to be &u admirably contrived and constructed Thresher and Cleaner. EMERY'S IMPROVED THRESHERS k SEPARATERS are not excelled by any in market, are well constructed, •impls and durable. lam prepared to supply all kinds AG-B.ICULTUXLA.Xi WIACmNEKU at manufacturers prices and terms. iff For further information, illustrative and descrip tive Catalogues, prices, Ac., apply to R.
