WILLIS has ni.ide .some considerable iniproveim-nts in 

 his Seed Sower, making it cnmplele as time imil hnrd vtudy 

 can possibly make it. In using this machine, the farmer 

 iiniy be certain that his seed is put into the grnuiid. nnrt al 

 the same time in the best possible innnner. There has Iweii 

 a great difficulty m machines fur sowing garden seeds ; they 

 are very apt lo clog up, and the farmer might ■:oov.r nn arre 

 ol land and i ot sow a single seed ; but not so with this ; n 

 is so constructed that it cannot possibly clog In using this 

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

 work at less than one quarter the expense of the cnnimnn 

 way of sowing his seetis, and have it done in a much belier 

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

 and rolls them down. It will sow any kind of Garden 

 Seeds ; say Ruta Bnga, Margel Wurtzel, Turnips, Cairois, 

 Beets, Parsnips, Onions, &c.

REVOLVING IIURME RAKE. 



The Revolving Rake which has been in general use in 

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

 one of 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 26 to 30 acres per day, with ease, anil do 

 the work well. They are coming into very general use )n 

 all parts of the country, and will, no doubt, m a lew 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 lo stop the horse lo unload the rake.
