G RAIN TH RESIiER
A machine of large capacity extreme simplicity and most
thorough in its work Separator only 4 inches larger than
Cylinder and so easily operated that anyone can thresh
their own grain without the hire of an expensive sepant
tor tender The inventor
r
Mr x l Thompson
Conceived the idea several years ago that to
Take "the Straw away from the Cylinder very Rapidly
would simplify the work of separation To obtain this he
has labored many long years and success has at last crown-
ed hisTaithful efforts
Thfere is Very Little Machinery
V
in the make-up of this Thresher yet -the separation is so
rapid and complete that there is practically no overfldw to
be carried back to the cylinder therefore eliminating to a
very small degree the v

Cracking of the Grain
t
so prevalent irr threshing Milo Kafir and Cane
I will have one of these Separatdrs mounted with en-
gine on one set- of trucks and as soon as this severe win-
ter weather breaks away I will be prepared to -do your
threshing at 4cts per bushel? and demonstrate to you that
you cannot afford to be without one of the
Thompson-Dorris Separators
Price of 18-inch -Cylinder-without self
Feeder any Blower $150
To thresh Wheat Rye and Oats the Blower is a necessity
Price quoted laier 'on Blowers
The 1912 output will be somewhat limited' Investigate
the merits of this machine as soon as you can and: place
