Your Choice as Follows : 
No. 20s.—KewRemington Carbon Clipper. 
Price $14.00. 
The manufacturers of plows are now working in the 
direction of lightness of draft, and durability of material. 
The makers of the Clipper Plow claim to have 
fixed upon a metal, which allows them to make the 
plow much lighter than those made with chilled iron. 
They call it the Carbon Metal,” and it consists of equal 
parts of refined iron and cast-steel. This metal, upon a 
fractured surface, presents the appearance of silver-steel, 
and it takes a fine polish equal to the best steel. These 
plows are furnished with the new Jointer, which 
does the work of a coulter. This is intended to throw 
all stubble into the furrow, and to completely turn under 
sod or weeds. It has a steel mould-hoard, and makes 
the plow much lighter to handle. The makers have so 
much confidence in their new Jointer, that they allow 
every purchaser of a plow to take a Jointer home and try 
it, and to return it if not found satisfactory. They say 
none are returned. We will give one of these plows to 
any one who will send us 1 5 subscribers at $1.50 each ; 
OR we will send it for the price. Receiver to pay freight.

VALUABLE STAND OR POCKET 
THERMOMETER. 
No. 2 I 2.—Auburndale Metallic Ther¬ 
mometer.—The principal action of this Thermom¬ 
eter is no new departure. It is 
simply the expansion and con¬ 
traction of metals under changes 
of temperature. In the mercurial 
the temperature acts upon a sin¬ 
gle metal, while these derive 
their power from the difference in 
the contraction and expansion of 
two metals, it is the coming ther¬ 
mometer, and is surely destined, 
when its merits are known, to 
supersede ail others, for the fol¬ 
lowing reasons : 1st, its adapta¬ 
bility; 2d, its strength and durabil¬ 
ity; 3d, the ease with which it cau be read, having a dial 
like a watch or clock; 4th, its ornamental appearance. 
It is an acknowledged fact that solid metals are more reli¬ 
able than liquids; besides, the uncertainty of exhaustion 
and regularity in the tubes of mercurial thermometers 
make them unreliable, and the only reason why they are 
used, is tlic fact that people have, without any investiga¬ 
tion on their part, 
adopted them as 
correct, rather than 
spent time to look 
into the matter. In 
a word, there is no 
subject of a scien¬ 
tific nature so little 
understood by the 
general public as 
thermometric obser¬ 
vations. Fifty diff¬ 
erent thermometers, 
varying in price 
from 20 cents to 
$3.50, in the same 
immediate neigh¬ 
borhood will all be 
thoroughly relied 
upon, though they 
may vary from 5° to 
10°. Were the same 
variation made in a 
watch or clock, the 
owners would at 
once ascertain the correct standard. We have thor¬ 
oughly investigated this matter, and feci every con¬ 
fidence in offering them to our friends and patrons, 
knowing that they will find them all that is claimed 
for them. Watch-charm size, Rolled-gold Plate, 
size of 10-cent piece, we will present, pcst-paid, for 3 
subscribers at $1 .50 each; $3 .00. Pocket size, 1 X inches
