Great improvcmenis hav,- been marie the past year in the 

 form and workmanship of these Ploughs; the mould board 

 has been so firmed as lo lay fie furrou, completely over 

 tumtng in crcrij parlUlc of g-rass or stubble, and leavrng the 

 ground m the best possible mannrr. The length of ihe 

 mould board has been verv much increased, so that the 

 Plough works with the greatest ea«e, both wiih respect to 

 the holding and ihe leaui. The Committee al the !ale trial 

 ol Ploughs at Worrcster, say, 



" Should our opinion be asked as to which of ihe Ploughs 

 we shou'd prefer bit use on a farm, we mighl perhaps say lo 

 the inquirer, if >our land is mnsily light an, I easy to work 

 iry Prouty & IMears, bnl if yuar land is heavy, hard orrochy 

 BKGiN WITH Mn. Howard's.'' 



At Ihe above mentioned irial the Howard PI"U"h done 



more xrork, with the least jmccr of team, of am, plough ex- 



Inbited—nn Plough doing over twenlvseven an<l one half 



[inches, lo the 1 12 lbs. drausrht, while the //oioaro! Plou<rh 



1 done twcntyninc and one half inches, to the same poicer"of 



I li-am ! All acknowledge that Howard's Ploughs are much 



the strongest and most suhstanlial made. 



There has been quite an improvement made on the shoe 

 or land side of this Plough, which can be renewed wilhoui 

 having to furnish a new lanilside: this shoe likewise secures 

 Ihe mould board and landside together, and strengthens the 

 Plough very much. 



The price of the Ploughs is from S6 to SI5. A Plough 

 suHicieni for breaking up with four cattle, will cost about 

 »,|| 50, and with culler *l, with wheel and cutter S'' 50 

 extra. ' 



The above Ploughs are for sale, wholesale and retail at
