WILLIS'S LATEST lltlPRO VED SEED SOWER. 



Willis's latest Improved Seed Sower, invented the last sea- 

 son; one of the most perfect maehinrs ever introduced for 

 the purpose. In using ihis machine, the farmer mav be cer- 

 tain thai his seal is put into the ground, and at the same 

 time in the best jinssible manner. There has been a great 

 difficulty in machines lor sowing garden seeds; ihey are 

 very ap: to clog up. aud the farmer mishl go over an acre of 

 land and not sow a single seed ; hut noiso with this ; 11 is so 

 constructed that it cannot possibly clog. In u-ing this sow- 

 er, the farmer can save one half of h:s seed, and Ao the work 

 at I. ss than one quarter the expense of the common way ot' 

 so A-mg seeds, and have it done in a much heller manner : 

 It opens the furrow, drops the seed, and covers it over and 

 rolls them down. It will sow almost anv kind of Garden 

 Seeds; say Ruta Baga, Mangel Wurtzel. Tiirnins, Cerrots, 

 Beets, Parsnips, Onions It is highly recommended by 

 a great number of persons who used it the past season
