RICHMOND & CHANDLER’S PRIZE CHAFF-CUTTING MACHINE. [Picture: Richmond & Chandler’s prize chaff-cutting machine] This remarkably successful machine has now been before the public for some years, during which time it has received the most distinguished honours that could be awarded—the First Prizes of all the National Societies, and the highest commendations of the Judges of all the principal Societies in Great Britain. In testing the comparative value of machinery the first consideration is, the power required to work the same: in other words, the power required to overcome the friction of the different parts of the machinery. RICHMOND & CHANDLER beg to observe that the utmost attention is given to the fitting and the perfecting of all the working parts of their machines, which they are determined shall continue to maintain their high position and well-earned celebrity. On the trial of Chaff Cutters, the following report is found in the leading journal:— “CHAFF-CUTTING ENGINES.—In this class of implements, Messrs. Richmond and Chandler have surpassed everything that has been produced before, inasmuch as their new machine does the same amount of work, with 45 per cent. less power, in the same time, thereby reducing the expense of this important operation. Choking in the feed—an evil to which the best of these machines have hitherto been more or less liable—is scarcely possible, from the form of toothed rollers applied. Altogether the getting up is well worthy the reputation of the inventors.” The true and _unsolicited_ testimonial here given more than confirms the above report of the _Times_:— “To Messrs. Richmond and Chandler. “Gentlemen,—I herewith enclose you a cheque for the amount of your Chaff Cutter, No. 4. I had the opportunity of putting it to a strong test throughout the winter, and have much pleasure to inform you that it has given me perfect satisfaction. I had been in the habit of using a machine for years that had obtained a high degree of celebrity with the Royal Agricultural Association, but I was obliged to get rid of it on account of the amount of labour it required, and the impossibility of making it feed itself. All these objections are fully obviated by your machine. A neighbour of mine has another of them, and he is equally pleased with his. I remain, gentlemen, yours, &c., “Orlingbury, Wellingborough, 8th May, 1858. “A. A.
