The most perfect, substantial and economical Farmer's Sheller ever built. ? Bloomikgton, April 17th, 1860. Mv. Tusac P. Atinater : Sir :—In answer to vour questions, I will state that since 10th November Last, I have shelled with the JfcQUISTOX TWO HORSE POWER ELEVATOR SHELLEU, over 45,000 bushels of Corn, with less than $5 expense for repairs, and ray machine is still in good running order and will probably slicll as much more. I have shelled, cleaned perfectly and sacked SO bushels n one hour, and can doit any day with pood corn. AVould not sell my machine at any price, if I could not get another just ike it. Two light horses have done all this shelling and kejit fat. I shell and car my own corn at an expense of one and a 1 cents per bushel. Yours respectfully, W>I. A'REELAXD, ] Corn Buyer, at C. A. & St. L. Depot. Mr. JOSEPH LUDiyOTON, Corn Buyer, etc., at Depot of Illinois Central Railroad, Bloomington, says : I have shelled about 40,0(K) bushels since 20tli November last, with about ^'i expense for repairs, running every day now. Ilave timed it one hour and shelled 75 bushels. Common average of every day is 50 bushels per hour. It is the most substantial, durable and economical Corn Sheller I have ever seen. Don't think it can be equalled. Messrs. Al'GLE & ALLER, of Bushnell, C, B. & Q. R. R., have shelled about bushels since November last. Machine still in good order and ^helling every day. Repairs have been trifling. Sheller and Power considered unequalled. Sheila from 450 to 600 bushels per day, depending iq)on the quantity of corn got to it. Have never seen it fed as fast as it would shell. Messrs. WYCKOFF &
