WlliblS'S LATEST IMPROVED VXIGBTABLH 

 CUTTER. 



This machine 5Urpa.ss»« all others for the purpose of cut- 

 ting Rula Boga, Jtangcl Wurljel, and oll.et roots,. The 

 great objection to other machines, is their cutting the roots 

 into slices, which makes it almost impossible for the cattle 

 to get bold of them ; this machine with a lillle alteration, 

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

 convenient forihe cattle to eat. Il will cut with ease from 

 one to two buslieU of roots per minute.

 inouW board has Ik n very much incrroscil, so lliat the 

 Plough works with the greatest e,ise, both with respect to 

 the holding and the learn. The Committee at the late trial 

 of Ploughs at Worcester, say, 



" Should our o|>inion he asked as to which of Ihe Ploughs 

 we should prefer lor use on a farm, we might i>erha|>s say !• 

 the inquirer, if your land is mostly light ao>l easy lo woik,

BEGIN WITH Mr. HoWABO'a.*' 



At the above iner.f.oncd I rial the Howard Plough iHd 

 more vork, xtitfi the name pmrcr q/* team, than any othw 

 plough cxhibilrd. No other turned more than twenlyse.-«» 

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

 Howard Plough turned tuentynine and one half inches, to 

 the same potcrr of tram ! All acknowledge that Howonl's 

 Ploughs are much the strongest and most substanlislly 

 made. 



There has been quiie.an improvement made on the sh<i«, 

 or land side ol this Plough, which can be renewed withouC 

 having to furnish a new landside: this shoe likewise secuiea 

 the mould hoard aud landside together, and strengthens tha 

 Plough very much. 



The price of »he Ploughs is from S6 lo 8l6. A Ploiigk,

Grindstones of <li(rerent sizes hung on frici ion rollers a»d 

 moved with a foot trcadcr, is lound to I e a great improve- 

 ment on the present mode of hanging grindstones. The 

 ease with which they move upon the rollers, renders theia 

 very easy to turn with the foot, by which the labor of one 

 man is saved, and the person in ihe act of giinding, can 

 govern the stone more to his mind by having the complete 

 control ul his work. Stones hung in this manner are be- 

 coming daily more in use, and wherever use<i, give univep-
