PARKES' STEEL DIGGING FORKS I DRAINING TOOLS. 



A/i ESSRS. BURGESS and KEY, aa Mr. Parkes' 



IfJL Wholesale Agents for England, have always in stock a 

 large assortment. These Forks and Tools are now in nse by 

 upwards of 1000 of the Nobility and Fanners, members of the I 

 Koyal Agricultural Societv. who pronounce them to be the best 

 ever invented, and to facilitate labour at least 20 per cent. 

 Price Lists sent free on application, and Illustrated Catalogue 

 of the best Farm Implements, on receipt of eight postage stamps. 



"e this week present our readers with a report 

 of the successful Carlisle Meeting. 



During the last week and a half, multitudes oi 

 agricultural authorities and novices, business men 

 and sight-seers, have been flocking to that northern 

 city. Not to combine against a Pictish incursion or 

 a moss-trooper's raid, of which the old fortresses 

 thereabout (such as the Roman wall, Lancaster, 

 Penrith, and Carlisle Castles and Na worth, the 

 stronghold of " belted Will Howard,") may remind 

 them as they pass. Not to see how " ginghams" 

 are manufactured, and biscuits baked — these being 

 the more civilised employments of the inhahitants 

 there in our days. But we have met in the border 

 city our fellow countrymen and cultivators from 

 beyond the Tweed, to view with them the best of 

 England's food-producing machinery, the choicest 

 specimens of the animals that furnish and perpetuate 

 meat for our population, and perform great services 

 for mankind. We have met to learn of each other, 

 to impart both instruction and good-feeling to each 

 other; and if on the one hand our southern 

 mechanical wonders and fine animals in certain 

 classes have excited the admiration and awakened 

 the appreciation of the Cumberland and still more 

 northern farmers, on the other hand, we have been 

 no less gratified and advantaged by the north-men's 

 show of noble horses and superior cattle. 



The district veiled by the Royal Agricultural 

 Societv this year includes the counties of Cumber- 

 land, Westmoreland, Lancaster, and the Isle of Man; 

 so that with the mountaineers and factory people of 

 these counties, and the cargoes of Manx islanders that 

 have visited the show, there has been an ample contri- 

 bution of company from the district itself; while at 

 the same time there has been a large influx of agri- 

 culturists from neighbouring English counties, from 

 the eastern and midland districts, and also thousands 

 of keen and intelligent business men from the east 

 and west of Scotland. 

 The Societv has a mission to perform in the en-
