AVILLIB'S LATEST IMPROVED SEF.D SOEVER. 



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

 son; one of the most perfect machines ever introduced for 

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

 tain that hi? seed is put into the sround, and at the same 

 timo in the best possible manner. There has b»en a great 

 diiTiculty in machines lor sowing garden seeds; they are 

 very ap: to clog up and the larmer mis;htgo over an acre of 

 land and not sow a single seed ; but not so with this ; it is so 

 constructed that it cannot possibly clog. In using Ihis sow- 

 er, the farmer can save one half ofhis seed, and do the work 

 at Ifss than one quarter the e.x|iense of the common way of 

 sowing seeds, and have it done in a much better 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 Wurtzcl. Tnrnius, Carrots, 

 Beets, Parsnips, Onions. It i.s hiirbly recommended by 

 a great number of persons who used it the past season
