WILLIS'S LATEST IMPItOVBU SEKD SOWER. 



Willis's latest Improved Seed Sower, invented the last sea- 

 son ; one of the most perfect machines ever introduced for 

 the p\irpose. In using this machine, the farmer mav be cer- 

 tain that his seed is pnlinto the ground, and at the same 

 time in the best possible manner. There has been a great 

 difficulty in machines for sowing garden seeds ; they are 

 very apt to cleg up, and the farmer might go over an acre of 

 land and not sow a single seed ; but not so with this ; it is so 

 constructed that it cannot possibly clog. In using this sov^er, 

 the farmer can save one half of his seed, and do the work at 

 less than one quarter the expense of the comninn way of 

 sowing his seeds, and have it done in a much better manner ; 

 it opens the farrow, drops the seed, and covers it over and 

 rolls them down.- It will sow almost any kind of Garden 

 Seeds: say Ruta Baga, Mangel Wurtzel, 'Turnips, Carrots, 

 Beets, Parsnips, Onions, Corn, &c. It is highly recommend- 

 ed by a great number of persons who have used it the present 

 season For sale at the N. E. .Agricultural Warehouse aud
