To all whom t may concern.-
Be it known that I, E.

Figure l is a full-sized perspective view, showing the general forni of the sheller. Fig. 2 is a sketch, showing the Way the sheller is used.
'lo enable others skilled in the art to inake and use niy invention, I will hereby describe its construction and operation.
The sheller. Fig. l, is made of wood or any metal generally used for forks and spoons. The handle, entirely similar to that of a tablespoon or fork, is formed at point A into two branches, K and K', of well proportioned thickness and Width, said branches supporting the saw-toothed blade D, which is set on them at a proper angle, of ninety degrees or about, with the plan of the branches K K.
The way of using the sheller above described is as follows: The left hand holds the ear of corn with any ordinary table-forli, while the right hand scrapes the corn off the cob with the Sheller above described, and shown in Fig. 2.
I ani aware that niany devices have been already invented and contrived for the 1naking of instruments fitted for shelling and scraping corn-ears. I ain also aware that toothed blades have been applied to the same use; but
What I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
The toothed blade I), in combination with branches K K and handle H, using for that purpose any suitable metal or hard wood, or both combined, when constructed and operating as herein set forth and described.
In testimony that I claim the above I hereunto set my hand.
