TRANSPLANTING. 



The autumn is prefered to the spring by 

 many nursery men and orchardists, for traiis- 

 lanling hardy trees, as Apples, Pears and 

 lums. The present is a less busy season than 

 the Spring, and those who intend to purchase 

 trees can probably get a better article and obtain it with 

 more dispatch now than next April. The frosts have 

 already been sufficient to destroy the foliage, and the opera- 

 tion of transplanting may be done with safely. 



We can supply extra fine Apple, Pear, Plunj, and other 

 sort of fruit, and Ornamental Trees and Shrubs at Nursery 

 prices, and pack to send with safety to any part of the Coun- 

 try. All orders faithfully attended to.

HOWARD'S IMPROVED EASY DRAUGHT PLOUGH. 



Great iinprovt'ini Ills have been made the past year in the 

 form and workmanship of these Ploughs ; the mould U ard 

 has been so formed ax to lay the furrme romptetety ocrr. 

 tuminf( in every particle nf grain: or iluI'Mr, and ieating Iha 

 ifrouTut in the best poisibic manner. The length of the 

 mould board has b< n very much increased, to that the 

 Plough works with ihe greatest ease, both with respect to 

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

 of Ploughs at Worcester, say, 



" .Should our opinion be asked as lo which of the PInoght 

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

 the inquirer, if your land la mostly light and easy 10 woik, 

 try Prouty & Mcnrs, but if your land is heavy, hird orrocky, 

 «EoiN WITH Ma. Howard's. '' 



Al the above me:;t;oned irial the Howard Plough did 

 more irork, icilh the same pncer of teajo, than any other 

 plough exhibited. No oilier turned more than twenlyse.'cn 

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

 Howard Plough turned ttcmtyninc and one half inches, to 

 the same power of team ! All acknowledge that Howanl'a 

 Ploughs are much the strongest and most substantially 

 made. 



There has been quite an improvement made on the shoe, 

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

 having to furnish a new landside; this shoe likewise sccuies 

 Ihe mould board and landside together, and strengthens tlie 

 Plough very much. 



The price of the Ploughs is from 86 to 816. A Plough, 

 sufficient for breaking up with four cattle, will cost almut 

 8iO 50, and with cutler 81, with wheel aud cutter, (2 SO 

 extra. 



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

 the New England Agricultural Warehouse and Seed Stmc, 

 Nos. 51 & 52 North Market Street, by
