THOMAS J. FREDERICKS.

FARMER.--This gentleman removed here from Lucas county, Iowa, eight years ago. He is an industrious, upright farmer whose ambition has led him into the field of invention and crowned his efforts with grand success. He is the patentee of the three horse draft equalizer and wagon tongue, the only device of the kind that works successfully. It is a valuable invention and only has to be seen to be appreciated. He has applied himself closely to this work and was content only when he succeeded in perfecting the best invention of the kind ever attempted. Mr. Fredericks is a worthy citizen and we bespeak for him success. For reliable endorsement of the equalizer, he refers to several farmers who have used the equalizer. Anyone desirous of purchasing territory are requested to correspond with the patentee.
