THE BOSTON AND WORCESTER 



EAGLE DOUBLE FLOWS. 



THE superior merits of these Plows, consist in, 

 1. The mode of attaching the forward mould-board to the 

 beam, by which great strength and durability are secured, as 

 also the various desirable changes in depth of work, and rela- 

 tive depth of each plow, the same being regulated to any shade 

 of nicety, with perfect facility. 



2. The entire and handsome overturning of the sod furrow, 

 by the forward mould-board, to the extent of the whole width 

 of furrow taken by 1 he plow, placing it beneath, out of the 

 way of the teeth of the harrow, cultivator, or other imple- 

 ment, so that it is in no case dragged to the surface in the af- 

 ter-cultivation of the crop: 



3. The thorough and finished work done by the rear mould- 

 board, in taking up its furrow of under soil and sifting or scat- 

 tering it over the inverted sod, so as to entirely fill to the sur- 

 face, and at the same time break open any undue cohesion of 

 the soil, leaving the plowed land in a finely pulverized condi- 

 tion, requiring little labor with the harrow or other surface- 

 working instrument, — and indeed, in all tolerably free loams, 

 rendering the use of these instruments, as pulverizers, quite 

 unnecessary: 



4. The remarkably light draught of the plow, in proportion 

 to the amount of work and the thoroughness of pulverization 

 accomplished. 



Sever.^^1 sizes of the BOSTON & WORCESTER EAGLE 

 DOUBLE PLOW, are mnde by the subscribers, from patterns 

 of their own original invention. They invite their friends and 

 customers to examine these I'lows, as to quality and durabil- 

 ity of material, thoroughness and finish of construction, and 

 to test their working properties
