If. A. JLoiilirop’s Patent floe. 
The subscribers, in presenting this new Hoe to the public, only 
ask a trial to satisfy the most skeptical of its advantages over 
the common hoe either in the field or garden, and believing the 
following testimonial in its favor, among many others received, 
is more satisfactory to the public than anything we can say in 
its praise; we will leave it with the public to judge of its merits. 
Boston. May 13, 1858. 
II A. Lothrop, Esq.—My Dear Sir :—I am so much pleased 
with your Patent Hoe that lean not refrain from expressing my 
great satisfaction in the r me. They are a decided improve¬ 
ment over any similar implement I have ever met with, leaving 
Hie ground light and level and accomplishing much more than 
lhe common hoe with the same application of power. I think a 
trial of a few moments will satisiy any one of the correctness of 
these opinions. 
I shall use no other hoe on mv grounds, and I would thank 
you to send me, by express, half a dozen of each size, with bill 
oi the same. Yours respectfully,

CJitter and Improved Plow. 
Patented February 16, 1858. A recent, and one of the greatest 
improvements in plows ever invented, particularly adapted for 
breaking up OLD GROUND SuD, and PRAIRIE lands, giv¬ 
ing one third more breudth of work for the same team and 
draught., and in the same lime, that is to say, a Plow that, as at 
P'rs^nt constructed, will turn TWELVE inches, will, with 
this Landslide attachment, cut and turn SIXTEEN inches, 
with less labor for the man and without any more strain upon 
the team. 
Western men are particularly invited to call and see this 
great, yet simple improvement which can be adapted to any sod- 
breaking Plow now in use. Thus an EIGHTEEN inch West¬ 
ern Prairie Breaker can be made to cut and turn a TWENTY- 
FOUR furrow-slice without any addition to the leam. Larger 
or smaller plows work in the same ratio.

RICH’S PATENT IRON BEAM PLOWS. 
Having made an arrangement with the Patentee for the Man¬ 
ufacture and sale or the above plows, we are now prepared to fur¬ 
nish them in any quantity. These p'ows have given the utmost 
s itisfaction where ever they have been tried The beam being 
short brings the horses nearer the work and enables the man to 
guide the plow with more ease. The beam being high and 
crooked prevents them from being choked out bv vines or weeds

Uelano’s IndepeadciU Tooth May 
and Gram 2£a!te. 
This Rake has given universal satisfaction wherever it has 
been introduced. The ease and facility with which the hay 
may be placed in windrows, or bunched or cocked preparatory 
to loading, with entire freedom from dust: its superiority as a 
gleaner; the adaptation of the teeth to all surfaces, however ir- 
regular, are qualities which commend the Delano Rake, an u 
must ultimately bring it into exclusive use ; in short, it is as 
greatly superior >o the revolver or any other, as the revolver 
was, when first introduced, to the hand rake. We know of 
farmers who harvest their entire crop of hay by the use of Ulo 
Delano Rake and the fork alone—no hand rake being need“d 
in the field. 
Price with wheels complete $25. 
SELF ADJUSTING HAY ELEVATOR OR HOIST¬ 
ING FORK. 
By the use of this simple and low priced apparatus, a two- 
horse wagon-load may be unloaded and deposited in the mow, 
just where it isneeded. within ten minutes ; and if unusual ex¬ 
ertion be made, to avoid a threatened storm, in half that time, 
the workmen being fresh and ready for re-loading. 
Those manufactured by us are of improved construct ion. We 
also manufacture ihe Anti-Friction Blocks, to accompany the 
Forks. As these blocks cannot take fire, they are therefore 
cheaper than the common low-priced blocks. 
Pries of Hav Elevator $8. Anti-Friction Blocks, per set $5.

A Wonderful Pump. 
“Ou invitation of the Agent, JAMES M EDNEY, we, with 
many Others, visited an exhibition of a pump on the 26ih of May, 
and certify that-we saw it worked by two men with both hands, 
then with one hand each, and by one man alone, to the bight of 
one hundred and fifteen feet perpendicular, raising water with 
ease, regularity and rapidity; and we see no reason why two 
menmavnot work it easily at one hundred and fifty or more 
feet. The pump is very simple, strong and cheap for deep wells, 
etc., etc. Signed

LANGMAN’S FARMER’S FRIEND. 
A SURE and certain remedy for SMUT in Wheat, and the 
ravages of the Slug Grub and Wire Worm. It wll promote the 
germination and growth of the Seed Wheat, and increase the 
produce of the Crop quite equal to a change of Seed. 
LANGMAN’S FARMER S FRIEND is strongly recom¬ 
mended by the most eminent and practical Fanners of Great 
Britain. One packer, at the cost of Seventy-five cents is suffi¬ 
cient to dress three bushels of Seed Wheat. 
In using it no lime or brine is required. The preparation ot 
Seed is attended with less labor; and t is easier and drier for 
the earth than any other plan. Full directions are given for use 
with each packet. _ . _____ .
