SOUTHERN CULTIVATOR. 
•'< SPEED THK PLOW ” 
I T is admitted hy the best judges that WAELICKS’ IMPROV- 
ED PLOW is the best iinidemeiit of the kind now in use. It 
is a Southern invention, and is pecularly adapted to agricultural 
purposes in the South. The best fanners of Alabama, G-eorgia 
and South Carolina, say it is the very thing they need. Its ex- 
cellencies consist mainly in the following particulars : 
1. It is the cheapest and most ecomical plow that can be used 
‘J. It is acknowledged to be the plovr for subsoiling clay lands. 
It is of lighter draft, and more easily managed by the hand 
than any other plow. 
4. All the plows used in the South may be attached to the stock, 
.and it is equally useful both for breaking up land and cultivating a 
crop. 
5. It is not liable to choke in grassy or rough lands. 
Premiums were awarded to this Plow at Agricultural Fairs in 
four Southern States in 1855. Certificates of the most flattering 
kind could be appended if necessaiy. The best way, however, to 
test the truth of the above statements, is to try the plow. 
Those -wishing to purchase plows or to obtain plows on trial, or 
to obtain any information concerning it, will please address the 
subscriber, at Atlanta, Ga. For plowing in wheat in grassy lands 
this plow is far .superior to all others. H. "WILLIAMS.

TO PLANTERS ! 
W ASHBURN’S^ NEW PATENT AGRICULTURAL IM- 
PROVEMENTS — are unquestionabl}’- the greatest advance 
in the adaptation of labor — saving machineiy to the production of 
cotton that has been made since the invention of the Saw Gin. 
THE COTTON AND CORN PLANTER i>eifoi’ms the entire 
operation of planting Avith one hand and one mule ten acres a day. 
It reduces the ridge, no matter how rough or cloduA-, to a smooth 
oval surface ; opens the drill to any desirable depth, equally in 
soft or hard ground ; deposites the seed in any de.firable quantitjq 
all the seed taking position in line at the same depth, and therefore 
coming up at the same time; closes the drill and slightly com- 
presss the surface, leaving it free from clods, not liable to be un- 
covered or coAmred deeper by hard rains, and securing a perfect 
stand in the dryest Aveather. 
THE SCRAPER bars off and scrapes both sides of a row at once, 
chopping it out into bunches, or marking the ground at uniform dis- 
tances to guide the hoes in cutting out. It is operated with ease 
by one hand and tAvo mules over from eight to ten acres a day, do- 
ing at one trip and tAvo turnings Avhat is now done Avith four trips 
and eight turnings. It does with one hand and tAvo mules wLat 
noAv requires four hands, four implements, and fotir mules, in a 
manner superior to similar Avork done in the msual vi ay. 
THE HILLER, operated by one hand and tAvo mules, moulds 
both sides of a row at once, graduating to anj' desirable depth the 
dirt placed around the young plants, so that all are dirted, none 
covered iqj, and the surface of the roAv left free from clods. These 
machines are made mostly of iron and the most Avorkmanlike 
manner, and Avill last indefinitely. Being simifie and not liable to 
get out of repair, the plantation blacksmith can keep them in re- 
paii’. Those Avho desme to have them for next .'=eason should order 
immediatelAq as none Avill be made except to order. 
Price of Planter $50. Scraper $40, Hiller $30, cash on delivery. 
They aagII be shipped to any rwer port or landing, the consignee 
pajfing freight. The whole crop of corn and cotton can be planted 
— scraped and moulded Avita these machines with one-half the force 
noAv required.
