HOWARD'S IMPROVED EASY DRAUGHT PLOUGH. 



Great improvements liave been niaile the past year in the 

 form and workmanship oi these Ploughs; the mould biard 

 has been so formed as to lay tke furrmo romptetely oocr^ 

 turning- in crcri/ particle of g-rassor stubble, anJienring the 

 ground in thr best possible manner. The length of the 

 mould board lias bi n very much increasci, so that ihe 

 Plough works Willi the greatest ease, both wiih respect to 

 the bolJjng and the team. The Coinmitlee at the late liml 

 of Ploughs at Worcester, say, 



" Slioulil our opinion be asked as lo which of Ihe Ploughs 

 we should prefer (or use on a farm, we might oerhaps say lo 

 Ihe inquirer, if your land is mostly light and easy to work, 

 try I'routy i, Mears, but if your land is heavy, hard orrucl.y, 

 DKOIN WITH Mr. HowAno's.'' 



.At Ihe aliove me-.!:oiied irial the Howard Plough did 

 more vork , teith Ihe same paver of team, than any alitor 

 plough exhibited. No other turned more ihan Iwentyso.'cu 

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

 Hnieard Plough turned Ixcentynine and one half inches, t9 

 the same power of team ! All acknowledge thai Howonl'a 

 Ploughs arc much the strongest and most substantially 

 made. 



There has been quite an improvement made on the shoe, 

 or land side ol this Ploui;h, which can be renewed willioui 

 having lo furnish a new Hind.siilu this shoe likewise secui»« 

 ihe mould board and landside together, and sircnglheus tlie 

 Plough v.-rv much. 



The price of the Ploughs is from 86 lo 815. A Ploneh, 

 sulTicienl for breaking up with four cattle, will cost aboni 

 8,0 60, and with culler $1, with wheel and cutter, 82 68 

 exira. 



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