In using Ibis iniu bine, the raniier mnv Ih- v.. itain that 

 bis seed is put inlo the ground, atid .it'lbe .same time 

 in llie best possible in,inner. There liiis been a great 

 diffienlty in mnehines lor sowin;; garden seeds; thev 

 are very apt to clog up, and the feirmer might go over ah 

 acre of land and not sow a single seed ; but not so with 

 this; it is so constructed that it cannot possibly clog. 

 \n using Ibis sower, the farmer can save one half »( 

 his seed, and do the work at less than one quarter the 

 expense of the common way of sovving, and have it 

 done in a much better manner; it opens the fiiriow, 

 drops ihe seed, covers it over and rolls them down. 

 It will sow any kind of Garden Seeds ; say Ruta Baga,

HOWARD'S IMPROVED EASY DRAUGHT PLOUGH. 



Great improvements have been made the past year in the 

 form and workmanship of these Ploughs; the mould hi arrt 

 h;is been so formed as to laii i'le furrow '•ompietely oner, 

 turning- in everi/ particle of s-rass or sluhble. andteaving ihe 

 grovml in the best possible manner. The length of the 

 mould board has be n very much increased, so that the 

 Plongli works with the greatest ease, both with respect t» 

 the holding and the team. The Coinmillee at the late trial 

 of Ploughs at Worcester, say, 



" Should our opinion be askeil as to which of the Ploughs 

 we should prefer for use on a farm, we might perhaps say lo 

 the inquirer, if your land is mostly light and easy to work, 

 try Prouty & Mears, but if your land is heavy, hard orrocl.y, 



BEGIN WITH Mil. HoWABD's,'' 



At the ahove me'.tioned trial the Howard Plough did 

 more icork, with Ihe same power of team, than any othtr 

 plough exhibited. No other turned more than twentyso/ea 

 and one half inches, to the 112 lbs. draught, while the 

 Howard Plnugh turned lwenl< mine and one half incket.lt 

 the same power of team ! All acknowledge that Howard's 

 ■ are much the strongest and most substantially 



Ploug 



made. 



There has been quite an improvement made on the shoe, 

 or land side of this Plough, which can be renewed without 

 having to furnish a new landside this shoe likewise seciiieK 

 the mould hoard and landside together, and strenglheus the 

 Plough very much. 



The price of the Ploughs is from S6 to Sl5. A Plouph, 

 sufficient for breaking up wilh four cattle, will cost about 

 *.o 60, and with culler il,wilh wdieel aud cutter, S2 60 

 extra. 



The above Ploughs are for sale, wholesale and retail, at 

 the New England iVgricultural Warehouse and Seed Store, 

 Nos. 51 & 5-2 North Market Slreet, hv
