AVILLIS'S I,.vri>,i- ililMtoV j;i) M I 11 >o\\|.u. 



WILLIS has nnde some consi.b'rable iuiprovements m 

 his Seed .Sower, making it complete as time »nd hard slu.ly 

 can possibly make it. In using this mocliine. the farinor 

 mny be certain that his seed is put into the ground, and at 

 the same lime in the best possible manner. There has been 

 a great difficulty in machines for sowing garden seeds ; they 

 "'e V"y apt to clog up, and the farmer might go over an acre 

 of land and i ol sow a .single seed ; but not so with this ; it 

 is so constructed that it cannot possibly clog. In using thit 

 sower, the farmer can save one half of his seed, and do iho 

 work at less tlian one quarter the expense of the common 

 way of sowing his seeds, and have it done in a much betler 

 manner ; it opens the furrow, drops the seed, covers it over 

 and rolls them down. It will sow any kind of Car.len 

 Seeds ; say Ruta liaga, Mai.gel Wurlzel, Turnips, Cairots, 

 ueets, I'arsni])a, Onions, &.c.

-RE»OL.VING HORSE RAKE. 



The Revolving Rake which has been in general use in 

 most parts of Pennsylvania and New Jersey, is found to be 

 one ol the most useful and labor saving machines now in 

 use. One man and horse wiih a boy to lead, will rake on 

 an average from 25 to 30 acres per day, with ease, and do 

 the work well. They are coming into very general use in 

 all parts of the country, and will, no doubt, in a few years 

 supersede the use of the common hand rake. There is a 

 great advantage in this rake over all others, as the person 

 using it does not have to stojj the horse to unload the rake.
