This Plow contains the 
most remarkable improve¬ 
ments ever made in Swivel 
Plows. It is easy to handle, 
with Shifting handles, 
which enables the operator to 
walk with both feet in the fur¬ 
row. The Hook or Latch is 
operated by the foot, so that 
the Plow is turned ready for 
use without taking the 
hands from the handles. 
Light, to draw, firm, strong, 
and durable. Constructed of 
Patent Hard Metal, which is as strong and will scour equal 
to steel. We also make it of charcoal iron, at a less price.

A General Fertilizer for all Crops, 
and Eow in Price. 
For a number of years we have had all of ll 
the Blood, Bone and Meat Waste of the i 
Brighton Abattoir, Boston, where about 
100,000 cattle and 600,000 sheep are slaugh- 111 
tered annually. Our Phosphate being com¬ 
posed of this animal matter (which lias ac¬ 
tually come out of the soil and is now being ,u 
returned), combined with Potasli and other ' 
chemicals essential to plant growth, pos¬ 
sesses, consequently, great crop producing 
power, giving larger and earlier crops, ana 
better quality. It is used in the hill or drill 
or broadcast, either alone or with manure. 
Our Fertilizers, composed as they are, must 
give good satisfaction, and that they do 1 b 
shown by the fact that we are now selling 
23,000 tons annually, as against 1,000 tons in 
1876, and require two large factories for 
their manufacture. Before buying, it will 
pay you to see our local agent, or write to 
us for Pamphlet and Prices.
