185. SAMUELSON, B., Banbury — Manufacturer.

Patent double-action turnip-cutter, for cattle and sheep, on a wrought-iron or wooden frame; the slicer-knife for cattle may be dropped when the seed-knives are in action; the hopper is on a hinge to facilitate the cleaning of the barrel.

[The turnip-cutter is one of the most valuable improvements in English farming: for fattening flocks it is indispensable. By thus sparing the animal the labour of chewing its food, their condition is improved 20 per cent.— Ph. P.]

Chaff-cutter for hand or horse power, on an angle iron frame; cuts two lengths.

Universal mill, adapted to crush all kinds of grain except linseed.
