The Buckeye Mowing and Reaping Machines-When the great U. S. Trial of Mowers and Reapers was held at Syracuse in 1857, this admirable machine, which had just been brought out, surprised everybody by its novelty and many excel- lencies, and won the highest awards. At that time the valuable patents under which it was built were secured for several States by the enterprising firm which now con- tinues its manufacture, Adriance, Platt & Co. At the second great trial of Mowers and Reapers, made by the N. Y. State Agri- cultural Society in 1866, the Buckeye again carried off the highest honors, showing that in the years intervening it had not gone backward in the race for superiority. Every new suggestion is thoroughly weighed, improvements only are adopted. The verdict of the people is nearly as unani- mous as that of the learned and practical committees who made these awards, for its sales far exceed those of any other ma- chine in the sections supplied by Adriance, Platt & Co. In fact they increase so fast, that the demand is almost always in ex- cess of the supply. The Self-Raking At- tachment on the Buckeye Machine has met with a success corresponding to that of the Mower, and has surpassed all others in the perfection of its operation. One great secret of the success of Adriance, Platt & Co., as manufacturers, has been in the con- scientious manner in which they have built their machines, and the great dura- bility of the Buckeye machine has been largely due to the excellence of the mate- rial used and the mechanical perfection of the workmanship. See advertisement on Map.


The Schoharie County Demo- crat, published at Richmondville, N. Y., meets a want long felt, for a reliable local paper, one devoted to the interests of this part of the County. We commend it to the patronage of the community generally. Mr. Multer, the proprietor, is an enterpris- ing young man, who is bound to make the enterprise a success. See card on page 148.

Waldron & Sisson, Breakabeen, N. Y., advertise a Platform Churn Power, manufactured by them, a good cut of which may be found on page 246. It is represent- ed, by those who have used it, as superior to any other in use, for durability, simpli- city of construction and ease of adjustment. It is so arranged that any desirable pitch can be given to the platform, thereby in- creasing or decreasing the speed at pleas- ure. Itis just the thing for those using dogs or sheep in churning. It took the first premium at the last two State Fairs. Messrs W. & S. also manufacture and deal in Plows, Castings, Hop Presses, Mowers and Reap- ers, Hay Presses, Hay Tedders, Hay Rakes, Straw Cutters, Threshers and Separators &c. Connected with their establishment is a Lumber Yard, where all kinds of Pine and Hemlock Lumber may be procured, or they will saw it for you to order.


Winter & Stafford, Carriage man- ufacturers, Schoharie, N. Y., publish an ad- vertisement on page 180, from which their friends and customers, whose name is legion, will learn, that they are still sup- plying the demand for Carriages, Light Wagons and Sleighs, suited to the wants of their customers. They attend to repairing in all its branches. For thirty years this establishment has been growing in favor with the people, and still merits and re- ceives a liberal patronage.


The Phoenix Sash and Blind Works of McHench & Co., Cobleskill, are advertised on page 246. The proprie- tors of this establishment keep constantly on hand all the usual sizes of Doors, Sash, Blinds &c., and make to order any style or size, and on reasonable terms. They also make Bedsteads, Brackets, Mouldings &c., and do all kinds of Planing, Matching and Sawing. Their Lumber Yard is well stock- ed with all desirable kinds ; and customers will find it for their advantage to call on McHench & Co. before purchasing else- where.

*As it is not convenient to give the decimal expressing the exact rate per cent., when the remaining fraction is less than one-half, we have made use of the + sign to indicate that the true rate per cent. is greater than that expressed, and when the remaining fraction is greater than one-half, one has been added to the integer, and the - sign used to indicate that the true rate per cent. is less than the number by which it is expressed.

PUBLISHER'S NOTICES.


PUBLISHER'S NOTICES.


The Schoharie Union, published at Schoharie, N. Y., is one of the oldest newspapers in the County. Under the management of C. C. Kromer, the present proprietor, it is meeting the demands of its patrons and winning its way to many homes, where its weekly visits are duly ap- preciated. All kinds of Job Work is neatly done at the same office. To those who wish a reliable Republican paper, we say subscribe for the Union. See card on page 180.


Schoharie Academy .- This insti- tution, now ably conducted by Prof. Oren C. Sikes, as Principal, assisted by the most competent ability that can be procured, af- fords valuable educational advantages, not only to the surrounding country, but to those elsewhere who may desire to attend such a school. Its location, in the village of Schoharie, N. Y., can scarcely be sur- passed by any other in the State. Its ease of access, it being thirty-five miles from Albany, on the Susquehanna Railroad ; its quiet retirement, at a convenient distance from the city ; its situation, in the midst of the beautiful Schoharie Valley, so widely noted for its fine mountain scenery and ex- tremely healthful climate, and also for its surpassing advantages of minerals and fos- sils for the study of Geology, render it pre- eminently a desirable place for such a school. There is an English Department, including the primary as well as the higher branches of study, and a Classical Depart- ment, embracing the usual course of prepa- ration for College. Modern Languages, Music and other ornamental branches, are provided for, the most thorough instructors being employed. All is constantly under the direct supervision of the Principal, and no effort will be spared to render this in- stitution fully equal to the best schools of its class, securing to all its pupils a thorough education, as far as they may go, through a careful discipline of the mind, aiming rather at the full development of the rea- soning faculties, than a mere cultivation of the memory. See advertisement on page 2.


Simon A. Barnett, Stone Contract- or and Master Mason, Main Street, Scho- harie, N. Y., publishes a card on page 215. We cheerfully commend Mr. Barnett to the favorable consideration of all who require the services of a first-class Mason and Builder. Building Stone furnished to or- der. Those proposing to build will do well to consult Mr. Barnett before making con- tracts.


Empire Agricultural Works, Minard Harder, proprietor, Cobleskill, N. Y., are advertised inside first cover. Mr. Harder manufactures the celebrated Gold Medal Threshing Machine, a cut of which may be seen in the advertisement. This Machine was awarded a Gold Medal, at the great National Implement Trial, at Auburn, in July 1866, and wherever introduced, is becoming more and more popular. Indeed so fast does the demand for these Machines increase, that although 25 hands are now employed in their construction, turning out about $50,000 worth annually, their facili- ties are entirely inadequate to supply the demand, and Mr. Harder is about to erect new works to facilitate their construction. Harder's Premium Railway Horse Power, which also received a Gold Medal at the National Implement Trial, mentioned above, and received the highest commenda- tion by the Committee, are manufactured here. Mr. Harder also manufactures Fan- ning Mills, Wood Saws, Seed Sowers and Planters. Write to him for a Catalogue.


Dr. Kingsley, of Rome, justly cele- brated for the many cures he has effected of that most distressing disease, Cancer, pub- lishes a notice on page 1. He is prepared to treat all scrofulous diseases, and others of long standing, and assures his patients that they will not be charged a heavy bill and dismissed without receiving any bene- fit. Persons who cannot conveniently call upon him in person, can address him by letter, and will receive prompt attention. Dr. K. is a graduate, with an experience of over fourteen years in the practice of medi- cine. Let the afflicted give him a call.


R. C. Downs, Merchant Tailor and Dealer in Ready-Made Clothing, Gents' Furnishing Goods &c., Sharon Springs. N. Y., publishes an appropriately illustrated advertisement on page 200. We take great pleasure in calling the attention of our readers to the clothing establishment of Mr. Downs, where they can find all styles, prices and sizes of Clothing to suit the wants of all. Gents' Furnishing Goods, Trunks, Traveling Bags &c., may also be found here in great variety. Mr. Downs is also agent for the celebrated Elias Ilowe, jr., Sewing Machine.


George Widmann, Cigar manufac- turer, Main Street, Schoharie, N. Y., is a practical Cigar maker, keeps a number of hands in his employ and makes first-class Cigars. as his numerous patrons are ready to testify. He will fill all orders at short notice. His card appears on page 180.

SCHOHARIE COUNTY BUSINESS DIRECTORY.


TTO LADIES. MRS. EMMA BURLEIGH, M. D.,


From a long practice and intimate acquaintance with the diseases and peculiarities of her sex, believes that she can, in almost any case, relieve the suffering and restore health. All maladies of the UTERUS, (Prolapsus, Leucorrea, Ulceration, &c.,) yield readily to Chrono Thermal Remedies. Entire PROLAPSUS has been cured in three weeks, and in an aged subject. LEUCORRHEA, the general and insiduous destroyer of women's strength and beauty, is invariably overcome by our treatment. In all diseases of woman, from whatever cause and the longest standing, we have the most marked success.


There is so much connected with this subject of woman's health, that all women should consult a physician, herself a woman and conversant with all the improvements and discoveries of science. The preservation of woman's beauty should be an object of scientific care, and is one of which American women are very ignorant. MRS. BUR- LEIGH, while in Europe, made herself familiar with the habits and customs of dis- tinguished women in France and elsewhere.


MRS. BURLEIGH removes all obstructions to the Monthly Courses at one interview. An elegant aud strictly private home for those desiring Board and Nursing. 'Ladies at- tended in confinement or provided with medical care and nursing in Mrs. B.'s house.


Painful Menstruation is relieved in all cases. Catarrh, so often pronounced incurable, and Bronchitis, Spinal Diseases and Neuralgia, are entirely overcome by Chrono Ther- mal treatment after years of ineffectual trial of the ordinary practice. Ladies suffer no pain in severe labors under our care. Mrs. Burleigh spent four years in France in the study of Midwifery, and the various modes of treating female diseases, in which the French are so superior.


MRS. BURLEIGH can be consulted by letter, but all letters must contain one dollar to insure attention. Address, Dr. Emma Burleigh, 62 Howard Street, Albany, N. Y.


Opinion of the Press .- MRS. BURLEIGH is a lady of the finest intellectual powers and very uncommon literary attainments, and, as she has had very great advantages in the study and practice of medicine, both in this country and Europe, we cannot doubt that she is a skillful physician. She is one of the most accomplished of the daughters of Virginia .- [Editor Louisville Journal.


The Cobleskill Index, W. H. | Weeks, proprietor, was established in 1865. It is an Independent Family Paper, and worthy of the patronage so liberally ac- corded to it. The Job Department is fitted up with every facility for doing neat and tasty work. We commend the Index to the favorable notice of the citizens of Schoharie County. See their card on page 200.


George H. Gross, manufacturer of Horse Powers, Threshers and Cleaners, Fanning Mills &c .. Fly Creek; Otsego Co .. N. Y., advertises on page 164. Mr. Gross is the successor of E. W. Badger, having purchased the works in August 1871. He is a practical mechanic, thoroughly under- stands his business and is thoroughly pre- pared to render all work satisfactory. Re- pairing in all its branches, promptly at- tended to. We commend Mr. Gross to the favorable attention of all our readers.


Dr. L. T. Fox, Dentist, Main Street, Cobleskill, N. Y., is prepared to perform all operations in the mechanical or surgical department of Dentistry, in the best man- ner. Dr. Fox keeps posted in regard to all the improvements in his profession, and treats his patients after the most approved methods. His success in extracting teeth while the patient is under the influence of Nitrous Oxide Gas, commends him to the attention of all who have teeth to be ex- tracted. His card appears on page 164.


Latham House, Gallupville, N. Y., under the proprietorship of Henry G. Lat- ham, is meeting the wants of this com- munity in such a manner as to convince all its patrons that Mr. L. can "keep a hotel." The house is well furnished, the beds are clean, and the table is furnished with every- thing needed to satisfy the demands of all reasonable customers. A good Livery is connected with the house. See advertise- ment on page 196.


J. H. Boyce & Son, dealers in Hats, Caps, Furs &c., Main Street, Schoharie, N. Y., publish a card on page 148. This is an old and well established house, known to the residents of Schoharie, for the last twenty-five years, as a place where good goods can be obtained at fair prices. To those unacquainted with the proprietors, we take pleasure in saying that they are reliable, fair-dealing men, and worthy of the extensive patronage which they receive.


The Schoharie Republican, ad- vertised on page 196, is the oldest news- paper in the County. For more than fifty years its weekly visits have been hailed with joy by the inmates of many families. Its summary of local and general news, and its selections of miscellaneous matter, to- gether with editorials upon current topics, render it admirably adapted to general cir- culation in the County. The Job Depart- ment is well fitted up for all kinds of print- ing, which is neatly executed.
