It will alfo fow clover, cole, 'flax, and every 

 other kind of fmall feed, with the utmoft degree 

 of regularity. 



It will likewife broadcaft beans, peafe, and tares, 

 or drill them with the greateft exadlnefs, particu- 

 larly when conftrudled to be ufcd with a plough. 



Another advantage attending the ufe of this 

 machine, is, that the wind can have no effedl: on 

 the falling of the feed. 



OJ the Machine inben made to be iijed "joilhout a Plough y 

 and to be draivn by a Horfc. 



THE Machine in this cafe may he made of diiferent lengths 

 at the defire of the purchafer. The upper part A A A A', fee 

 Fig. 2. Plate 1. contains the hoppers, from which the grain or 

 feed defcenJs into the fpouts. The feveral fpouts all reft upon 

 a bar, which hangs and plays freely by two diagonal fupporters 

 B B, a trigger fixed to this bar bears againft a catch-wheel : this, 

 being fixed on the axle, occafions a regular and continual mo- 

 tion, or jogging of the fpouts, quicker or flower in proportion to 

 the pace the perfon fowlng with it drives; and of courfe, if he 

 quickens his pace, the bar will receive a greater number of 

 Jlrokes from the catch-wheel, and the grain or feed wiH fted the 

 fafter. If he drives flower, by receiving fewer ftrokos, the con_ 

 trary muft take place. In going along the fide of a hill, the 

 ftrength of the ilroke is corredled by a fpring v/hich a£ls with 

 more or lefs power, in proportion as the machine is more or lefs 

 from a horizontal pofition, and counterads the difference of 

 gravity in the bar, fo that it prefTes, in all fituations, with a 

 proper force againll the catch-wheel. This fpring is unnecefTary 

 ii the land be pretty level.
