182 AN AMERICAN FARMER IN ENGLAND. 



tillage by Judge Van Bergen, at Coxsackie, N. Y.) They are 

 designated variously by different manufacturers, as grubbers, 

 scarifiers, extirpators, harrows, and cultivators. The &quot; ULEY 

 CULTIVATOR,&quot; of which a cut is appended, is one of the sim 

 plest and most efficient. In this the tines are raised by turn 

 ing a crank, each complete turn of which raises or depresses 

 them one inch. The depth to which they are penetrating at 

 any time, is marked by a dial near the handle of the crank. 

 Something of the kind more effectual than any thing we yet 

 have, is much needed to be introduced with us. Clean an/3 

 thorough culture of stiff clay soils can hardly be performed 

 without it. 



I should remark of English agricultural implements in 

 general, that they seem to me very unnecessarily cumbrous 

 and complicated. 



I have lately had in use on my farm, a plough furnished 

 me by A. B. Allen & Co., of New York (&quot; Euggle s Deep 

 Tiller&quot;), which, I think, has all the advantages of the best 

 English ploughs, with much less weight, and which is sold at 

 half their cost.
