The Horse Power isa late invention by !á. W.

It ia light in vveight and sniall ia eompass, being cairied together vith the Thrcsher, in a coninion waggon box. and drawn witb ease by two horsea. Jt is as httlq liable to break, , or get out of ropnir. as any other li'orse Power, : and will work as easy afra thrash ;:s rfiuch vth foiir liorses aitached to it tóány orher posver with fivi horsea, as will appcar from theüons bclow.

Foster, &Co., and believe it be construct ed upon beller principies, and requires ss slrengCt of korses than any other power with whicli I ain acquainted. A. WEEKS. Mount Cicmens, Sept. 8; 1341. Thisis to inform the public that I have purchosed one of the Horse Powers, recently invented by S. V. Fo8ter. and ua;d i for a nanibér ofrnontÖs, and believe it is the best power in use, working with less strength of horses thun any oiher power with which I a;n acquaiiued, and being sniall in conipass. is c:isily moved í rom one place to another. Í believe 4 horses will tliresh as inuch with this power as 5 will with any othcr power. The plan and the workinj oí' tliis ppwer havo been universally approvodofby fennersíor whom I have thraöhed.
