with sauce made of butter and sugar, of the con 

 sistency of porridge, and seasoned with nutmeg 

 &c., it malves a dish fit for an alderman. 



1 know not but these may both be found in 

 some " Domestic Cookery" or other book, but if 

 they are they do not come where they belong, 

 (before the mass of the people,) as they would 

 in the Farmer. 



The poor man can live on meal and buck- 

 wheat flour, when the latter can be bought for 

 half the price of wheat flour by the pound ; and 

 I doubt not the rich man would like a second one 

 were he to try a pudding made in either of the 

 above manners. C. 



Pure Blood Merino Sheep for Sale. 



THE Subscriber being about to retire from the 

 farming business, offers for sale his entire flock of Me- 

 rino Shkep, which have been bred with the greatest 

 care, from the best flocks in the country. Of these. 

 75 are ewes, now with lamb, by a buck from the recent imported 

 flock of John A. Taintor, Esq., of Hartford, Conn. ; 25 Bucks one 

 year old last spring, from the above ewes, sired by the Rambouillet 

 Buck Chanctllor ; and 50 Lambs, the increase of last year, sired 

 by the celebrated Rambouillet Buck, Grandee, now owned by the 

 Rev. L. G. Bingham, of this place. As to pvirity of blood, fine- 

 ness and weight of fleece, and strength of constitution, they are 

 excelled by no Merinos in the country. The Buck purchased 

 from the recent importation of Mr. Taintor will also be offerd 

 for sale. 



To those wishing to improve their sheep, or those wishing to 

 start a new flock, the present offers a rare opportunity, and they 

 will be sold without reserve. 



Communications addressed to the subscriber will receive im- 

 mediate attention. THOS. H. CANFILD.

Steel Cultivator Teeth. 



THE subscriber hereby informs the public that he still con- 

 tinues to manufacture liOGERS' PATENT STEEL CUL

 chasers. For the reputation of the article reference is had to the

Seneca Falls, N. Y., Jan. 1S48. 



We. the undersigned farmers of the Genesee Country, earnestly 

 recommend to our brother farmers throughout the country the 

 use of the cultivator, not only for corn raising, but also for other 

 spring crops, and more especially for wheat raising. We are tully 

 convinced tiiat the cheapest and best for the land, and less liable 

 to winter kill, is the once plowing deep and thorough, and then 

 go immediately on wifh the cultivator for further preparing and 

 seeding our fallows, having either tried it ourselves, or seen it 

 tried side by side with the old way of plowing three times. And 

 we further recommend the above steel teeth, having used them 

 more than any other for the list two years, and do cheerfuUy say 

 that they are the best kind now in use.

 I concur fully in the sentiments contained in the above certi'fl 

 cate in relation to Rogers' Patent Steel Teeth Cultivator. I have 

 used it extensively, and find it emphatically the best farming im- 

 plement in use for the destruction of the Canada Thistle, and 

 other weeds which too often spring up on our summer fallows, 

 and while it is accomplishing this work in the destruction of 

 weeds, it will at half of the labor of the harrow, give a finer tilt 

 to the soil, and work the ground deeper and more usefully for the 

 wheat crop. 



I find it in many respects equally beneficial in preparing the 

 ground for spring crops. G V Sacket

Froiit-street, near Biiffaln-street.} 



BY JAMES P. FOGG. 



The subscriber again offers for sale a choice lot of Garden 

 Seeds, cautiously selected, and comprising all the kinds required 

 for a good vegetable garden. They were mostly grown by an ex- 

 perienced gardener, (Mr. C. F. Crosman,) and I can confidently 

 recommend thsm as fresh and pure Seeds. During the last five 

 years that the subscriber has been connected with this establish- 

 ment as proprietor, ihe business has increased from one thousand 

 to four thou.sand boxes, put up and annually distributed through- 

 out the United States and Canada. This is sufficient evidence 

 of the general satisfaction these seeds have given the public. 



The subscriber is fully sensible of the important relation 

 which the seedman holds to the whole farming community, and 

 that on his honor and veracity the crop and profit of a season in 

 some measure depend.
