Forster's Rock & Ore Breaker and Combined Crusher and Pulverizer.

_The simplest machine ever devised for the purpose._

Parties who have used it constantly for six years testify that it will

do _double_ the work of _any other Crusher_, with one-third the Power,

and one-half the expense for keeping in repair. The smaller sizes can be

run with Horse Power.
