SPEED THE PLOW.” 
I T is admitted by the best judges that AVARLICKS’ IMPROA^- 
ED PLOAA’ i.s the best iinplement of the kind now m use. It 
is a Southern invention, and is pecularly adapted to agricultural 
purposes in the .South. The best farmers of Alabama, Georgia 
and South Carolma, say it is the very thing they need. Its ex- 
cellencies consist mainly in the followmg particulars : 
1. It is the cheapest and most ecomical plow that can be used 
2. It is acknowledged to be the plow for subsoiling clay lands. 
3. It is of lighter draft, and more easily managed by' the hand 
than any other plow. 
4. All the plows used in tlio South may be attached to the stock, 
and it is ecpa^ly 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 Agricultttral Fau-s in 
fom- Southern States in 185-3. Certificates of the most flattering 
kind could be appended if necessary. 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. AVILLIAMS.
