HOWARD'S IMPROVED EASY DRAUGHT PIOUGH. 



Great iinprnvemniis have |.e.n made the i.n.t vear in tk« 

 form and workmanship of these Plough.; ihe mould bi ard 

 has been v„ f„rmed ns to lax, t'le fvrrnw rompletely opcr 

 lummfc in crcnj parHcle of grass or piul-blr, anil tearing the 

 frrouml in llir hrsl possible vwnncr. The lenctli of III* 

 mould Imard has bi n very much incrensri, so that the 

 Ploiigh works with the greatest ease, both with respect le 

 the holding and the team. The Commiliic al the late tiiol 

 of Ploughs al Worcester, say, 



" Should oirr opinion be asked as lo which of the Ploughs 

 we should prefer bir use on a farm, we might perhaps say 10 

 the inquirer, if your land is mostly light nn.l easv lo woik, 

 try Proniy & Mcnrs. Iiul if your laud U licarij, h ird orroel.y, 

 CKOis WITH :\ln. Hr.wAnii'a.' 



Al the above mer.t;oned trial the Howard Plough did 

 morcicork.uilh llic same pnrcr of team, than any olhar 

 plough exhibilvd. No oiher turned more than Iwenlyse.ea 

 and one half inches, lo the 112 lbs. dtaughl, while the 

 Hmcard Plough turnid titcnlmine and our half inchct. lo 

 the eume power of learn ! AM acknowledge that llowanl'a 

 Ploughs are much the strongest nnd most subslanlially 

 made. 



There has been qiiiie an iiiiprovemnil made on the shi-e, 

 or land side ol ibis Plough, -whieli can he renewed withoul 

 having lo furnish a new landsida: this shoe likewi>e seeiiies 

 the mould board and landside logethcr, and strengthens tlio 

 PInogh very much. 



The price of the Ploughs is from SC lo8t5. A Plonph, 

 snfficieni for breaking up wiih four cattle, will cost about 

 8;o 50, and with culler 81, vriih wheel and cutler, 82 60
