CORN SHBLLBRS. 



A Corn shellcr is one of the most convenient and labor 

 saving implements that the practical farmer has in use. 

 Various machines for this purpose have been invented. It 

 can be used in all cases for large or small sized ears. It is 

 very smiple in its conslruclion, and durable in its operation, 

 and no way liable to get of order; one man can work it to 

 good advantage, though a man to turn, and a boy to feed it, 

 works it much better than one alone. They are so light and 

 portable, as to be easily removed from place to place, and 

 one machine will serve lor several families or even the in- 

 habitants of a small town. 



Willis's Lmphoved Docble Operating Corn Shel- 

 LER. — The most perlect and substantial article that has been 

 introduced for the purpose ; this machine can be worked by 

 hand, or any olher power, and will shell two ears of corn at 

 Ihe same lime; they are highly approved by all that have 

 used them.

WILLIS'S LATEST IMPROVED VEGETABLE 

 CUTTKR. 



This machine surpasses all others for the purpose of cut 

 ting Ruta Baga. Mangel Wurtzel, and other roots. The 

 great objection to other machines, is their culling the roots 

 into slices, which makes it almost impossible for the cattle 

 to gel hold of them : lliis machine with a little altcralion, 

 cuts them into large or small pieces, of such shape as is 

 most convenient for the cattle to eat. It will tut wilh ease 

 from one lo two bushels of roots per minute. For sale by

HOWARDS IMPROVED EASY DRAUGHT PLOUGH. 



Great improvements have been made the past year in the 

 form and workmanship ol these Ploughs ; the mould beard 

 has l.een so formed as to la,, the furrmo completely oner, 

 turmng m ecerijparUde of grass or slul.ble, and lea/in!^ the 

 .. mni t„ the best possible manner. The length of ihe 

 mould board has b( n very much increased, so that the 

 Plongh works with Ihe greatest ease, both with respect to 



•f p'l" L'" ''""L, '"•■'"'• "^^^ Committee at the late trial 

 ot Ploughs at Worcester, say, 



" Should onr opinion he asked as to which of the Ploughs 

 we should prefer (or use on a farm, we might perhaps sav lo 

 he inquirer, ,1 your land is mostly light and easy to wi.ik, 

 try Proury & Mears. but ,f your land is heavy, hard orrochj', 

 BEGIN wirn Mr. Howard's, " "" 



At the above mentioned trial the Howard Plough did 

 more work tnth the same pin^e,- of team, than any olher 

 plough exhibded. No olher turned more than twentyse/e« 

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

 Howard I lough turned twentynine and one half inches to 

 the same power of team 1 All acknowledge that Howard's 

 Ploughs are much the strongest and most substanliaUy 



There has been quiie an improvement made on the shoe, 

 orlandsideof this Plough, which can be renewed without 

 having 10 f.irnis^h a new landside: this shoe likewise secures 

 the mould board and landside together, and strengthens llie 

 Plough very much.
