HUTCHINSON'S FAMILY WINE AND CIDER MILL, WITH PRESS COMBINED. The machine combined, except the curb, is made wholly of iron. The parts that come in contact with the fruit and juice are prepared by a patent process, so that they will not affect it. The rest is handsomely painted and varnished. It occupies less than two feet square space on the floor, weighs less than one hundred and sixty pounds, easily handled and worked by one man. For simplicity, compactness, strength, economy of power, and quality of work, challenges comparison. It is at once the machine so greatly needed, and should be owned by every farmer, gardener, fruit-grower, and in fact every family that may have apples for cider, grapes, currants, berries, or other fruits or plants for wines, jellies, etc.; for pressing lard, wool for packing, etc., etc. It forms also an excellent and convenient cheese press. It should be found in the hands of every family of small means; is indispensable with the true economist; a rare novelty with the man of wealth, who is only independent with it.

A large number of the mills have been sold, all of which, without an exception, give perfect satisfaction.

The mill and press complete, and adapted to all the purposes stated, costs but eighteen dollars, delivered at place of manufacture.

POWER PRESS.

[graphic]

This is an article the public has long been in quest of, and one to meet the necessary requirements has never been invented until the discovery of this, the celebrated "Union Power Press," which is an entirely original invention, combining three great powers in mechanics, most happily and advantageously arranged.

The same number of hands that are necessarily employed to handle the commodity to be pressed, apply the power, and will press a bale with great rapidity.

This press can be placed and worked in a very small space, and is also conveniently worked in store rooms for packing wool, tobacco, rags, etc.

Bales can always be made at one pressing, in as compact a form as may be desired, thus saving all necessity of a compress.

4th.-Fasten the wrought brace attached to the coupling bar, to the front part of the shoe by a pin in tool-box. Be careful to put in split key and spread the ends, to prevent its losing, Put in both bolts at the other end of the brace, and screw them up very tight.

6th. Slide the knife in the guards.

6th.-Attach the connecting rod to the crank. In doing this be very careful to notice how you take off the nuts, and the strap between them, so you can put them on the same way again Move the two half boxes apart, far enough to go on to the wrist; tighten up the two first nuts
