Threshing Machines. THE úndersigned would inform the public that they continue to manufacture JHoksk Powkrs nnd Thueshixg Maciiinks, two and a half miles from the village of Ann Arbor. on the rnilroad. The Horse I'ower is a late invention by S. W. Foster,_and is decidedly superior to any other ever ofiercd to the public, as will oppear by the statements of those who have usecl them during the 'act year. It is light in wcight and small in compass, bcing carried together with the Thresher, in a common waggon box, and drawn with ease by two horses. lt isas little liable tó break, or get out of repair, as auy other Horse PoVer, and will work as ensy and thrash as much with f'our horses á ttached to it as any other power wiih fivc horses, as will appear from the recommendations below. New patteins have been made for the cast Iron, and additional weight and strength applied wherever it had appeared to be necessary from one year's use of the machinesThe subscribers deern ït proper to átate, that a number of horse powers were co'd last year in the village of Ann Arbor which were bclieved by the purchnsers to be thosc invented by S. W. Foster. and that most or all of them were ei titer made materially different, or altered before sold, ijo a3 to be materially different from those made and eold by the subscribers. Such alterations being decidedly detnmenta". to the utility of the machiné. They have good reasoa to believe that every one of those returned by the purchasers as unsatisfactory were of tais class. They are not a ware that any Power that went from thcir shop, and was put in use, as they made it, has been condemncd or laid aeideas a bad machine. All who wish t.i buy are invited to examine them and to enquire of those who have used them. - There will be one tbr examinatiou at N. H.Wikg's, Dextar village) and one at Martin Wii.i.son's storchousc in Detroit - both tliese gentlemen being agents for the sale of them. The price will be $120 for a four horse power, with a threshing machine, wíth a stave or wooden I bar cylinder; and S' 30 for a horse power with a threshing machine with an iron bar cylinder. The attention of the reader is invited to the folio wing recommendations. S. W. FOSTER & CO. Scio. April 20, 1842. REC OMMEN DA TI ONS.This is to certify ihat wo have used one of S. W.
