HOWARDS IMPROVED PLOUGH. 



At the A<;ricuUumi Warehouse, 51 If 52 North Market Street. 

 HOWARD'S Improved Cast Iron PLOUGH, now otfered 

 for sale at the above establishment, has been in use by our 

 most experienced and practical farmers for more than two 

 years, and having received the premium at the late Brighton 

 Cattle Show, as being the best plough presented, and which 

 has since been tested by the Society s Dynometer, and found 

 to be the easiest draft plough by nearly one third of any other 

 plough of the same size, gives them a decided preference over 

 all other plouffhs now before the public. 



JR. NEWELL. 



EXTRACTS FROM THE BRIGHTON AGRICULTURAL RE- 

 PORTS. 



The Plough of Mr. Charles Howard of Hingham was a supe- 

 rior implement, considerable improvements having recently 

 been made by him, in making the mould board longer, and 

 swelling the breast of the share, so as to make every part bear 

 equally, by which means the plough ran more true and steady, 

 was alwavs free from carrying forward any earth, and was per- 

 leclly bright ; and being made on mathematical principles, he 

 informed the Committee he could make the different sizes al- 

 ways the same. JOHN PRINCE, JOHN BAKER, 3d. 

 EBENEZER HEATH. 

 The duty of awarding a premium " To the Plough which 

 shall be adjudged best of all those used at the Ploughing Match," 

 devolved on the two Committees, and they agreed unanimously 

 to award it to Mr. Charles Howard of Iliugham, for his new 

 and improved plough, $W. 



GORHAM PARSONS, Chairman of Siiigle Teams. 

 JOHN PRINCE, Chairman of Double 'Teams. 

 We the undersigned certify. That we have used the past 

 season Howard's Improved Cast Iron Plough, purchased at 

 the Agricultural Warehouse, No. 51 &52 North Market Street, 

 Boston ; and with great satisfaction recommend them to the 

 practical Fanner, as being in our opinion the best Ploughs we 

 have ever used, and consi<fer them a first rate article. A great 

 improvement has of late been made in this plough, by lengthen- 

 ing the mould board ; and it being worked upon true mathe- 

 matical principles it holds free and easy, does the work well, 

 leaving the ground light, and tunis the sward fairly over, and 

 is in no way liable to clog ; being ground smooth, they ruii free 

 on the first trial ; and we think them in every respect superior to 

 all other ploughs now in use.

BRIGHTON MARKET.— Monday, March. 11, 1833. 

 Reported for the Daily Adyertiser and Patriot. 



AtMarket this day 382Beef Cattle, (including 30 unsold last 

 week,) 537 Sheep and 725 Swine. 40 Beef Cattle remain 

 unsold. 



Pricfsl Beef Cattle. — No particular variation from last 

 week ; some qualities mav have been sold a shade less. We 

 noticed four beautiful cattle taken for the Plymouth market at 

 §6,75 ; we also noticed one yoke taken at g6.!>0. We quote 

 prime at S6,75 a 6,26 ; good at 5,25, a 5,75 ; thin at 4,60 a 5. 



Sheep.— We noticed an extranrdinary Cosset Wether fed bv 

 Col. Alpheus Anderson, of Shclbum. half blood, " Bakewell 

 breed," two years old, taken for gtO, probably the largest and 

 fattest Sheep ever driven to Brighton market, and sold for the 

 most money. We understand the said Sheep will be exhibited 

 at F. H. Market alive this dav. We also noticed 40 wethers 

 taken at g'J- being part of a lo't of 75 fed by the same gentleman 

 which average over j(ti each. Several lots were taken at 

 prices from gi to 6, and one lot for less than g4. 



Swine.— fio lots were taken ; a few were retailed at 5c. for 

 sows and G for barrows. 



jVe(f— We would remark thai Beef Callle generally liia 

 season weigh remarkably light.
