OH@ETHOKS- BSI.'EE CALVES.-For sale, two 
very superior thorough-bred shorthorn bull calves, got by the 
superb imported bull Exeter, out of two of Mr. J. F. Sheafe’s 
great milking cows. Exeter is of the Princess tribe of shorthorns, 
and was bred by Mr. Stephenson, of Durham, England, and 
imported by Mr. Sheafe. The dams of these bull calves are cel¬ 
ebrated milkers. For a particular account of Exeter and these 
cows, see the last volume of the Agriculturist, and page 151 of 
the present volume. Mr. Jackson, of Astoria, has a young bull, 
dropped last August, got by Exeter, out of one of Mr. Sheafe’s 
cows, whose superior we do not believe was ever produced in 
the United States ; and these calves now advertised for sale, we 
think equally promising.

and outbuildings have been thoroughly repaired during the past 
year, which, together with the farm, are now in excellent condi¬ 
tion. The premises are well watered, and contains thereon an 
excellent apple orchard of 100 trees, of 10 years’ growth. Exten¬ 
sive beds of limestone abound in the immediate vicinity, from 
which good lime is manufactured, and sold at from three to five 
cents per bushel, thus affording facilities unequalled for improv¬ 
ing the soil. Extensive flour and plaster mills are located at the 
High Falls, three miles distant from the premises. In connec¬ 
tion with the above, a wood lot of 100 acres will be sold at a re¬ 
duced price. Price of improved farm, $4,800. Terms.—One third

E AGLE PLOW.-No. 28.—The following extract 
from the letter of a gentleman who purchased one of these 
plows, fully explains its character. “ In answer to your inquiry 
how I like the great breaking plow, I have to say it entirely ex¬ 
ceeds my expectations, and even your own recommendation, 
which I then thought quite extravagant. I put on four stout 
yoke of oxen, and drove into the thickest patch of scrub oak 
roots upon my farm ; not without some misgivings, that I should 
break the plow instead of the roots ; but I have now turned over 
twenty acres as completely as though it had been nothing but 
stubble, and the plow is this day better than it was when it 
came from your store. I think it the cheapest and best plow for 
such heavy work ever invented.” 
These plows are for sale at our Agricultural Warehouse, No’s. 
189 and 191 Water st., New York. Price, plain, $18—full rigged, 
with wheel, draft rod, and cutter, $20.

E ndless-chain punifs, or water 
Elevators.—These highly approved machines operate upon 
the same principle as those used for grain. The elevator is mad a 
a part of an endless chain, that works over an iron wheel, and 
down into the water, around a pulley into the tube, through 
which a constant stream is made to flow into the pail, by simply 
turning the crank, attached to the wheel at the top, which any 
light hand can do with great ease. They are made of several 
sizes, and can be fitted up for any depth well, or cistern required. 
A JSTew Use for Chain Pumps .—One of these of large bore, is 
the most efficient machine ever used for emptying the vaults of 
privies, where the contents are in a semi-liquid state.
