LANGDQN’S CULTIVATOR. 
T HE HORSE HOE OR CULTIVATOR PLOW, is an implement 
constructed and patented in 1842, by Barnabus Langdon of Troy, 
an old and experienced mechanic. After much labor and practical 
experiment had been bestowed upon it, it was exhibited for the first 
time at the State Fair held at Albany, and also at the Rensselaer Co. 
Fair, of that .year, and received a premium at both. 
There has been a large number made and sold the past season, and 
they have been thoroughly tested in various ways by some of the best 
and most experienced agriculturists in this and the adjoining counties, 
and in the vicinity of New--York, and all testify to their utility and 
usefulness, and to their superiority over any implement of the kind 
in general use. They not only do the work more effectually, but in 
much less time, and at one half the expense of any other Cultivator 
now in use, which are three important items, in these times of gene¬ 
ral low prices for agricultural productions. This Cultivator was ex¬ 
hibited at the last Fair of the American Institute, and received a pre¬ 
mium. Much attention was bestowed upon it by Southern planters, 
and a number of them were sold by Mr. Langdon to go South, for 
working in corn, cotton, and tobacco. The Cultivator Plow is an im¬ 
plement made for weeding and loosening the soil between the hills of 
corn, potatoes, peas, beans and all root crops. 
When weeding, half hilling, or splitting down corn hills, the weed 
cutters are always to be used, as represented in figure No. 1.* This 
operation cuts up the weeds, loosens and pulverises the soil completely 
up to the hill, and by cross plowing there will be little left for the hand 
hoe to do. 
When the crop requires more earthing or hilling than the weed 
cutters can do, they are to be taken off, and the mould boards are to 
be put on, as represented in figure No. 2.* 
Both occupy the same position on the plow, and both are secured 
to the standard by one bolt. The mould boards throw a beautiful fur¬ 
row each way, thus doing the work in one half the time of an ordina¬ 
ry corn plow. 
For digging potatoes, or root crops, this implement is unrivalled. 
When used for that purpose, the weed cutters should be on, and the 
plow should then be drawn by a double team ; direct the plow under 
fhe middle of the hill, just deep enough to raise the crop to the sur- 
fpro, which it will do in a most expeditious and workmanlike manner. 
T use Cultivators are made of the best materials, fitted up in the best 
manner, with share, weed cutters, and mould boards ground bright, 
ready for immediate use. The price of the implement is $8 at retail, 
and a fair discount made to dealers in agricultural implements. Or¬ 
ders addressed to Barnabas Langdon, or Mo wry & Vail, 127 Ri¬ 
ver st. Troy, (his authorized agents) will receive immediate despatch. 
They are also for sale by Ruggies, Nourse & Mason, Boston ; John 
Mayher & Co. New-York ; Pruyn, Wilson & Vosburgh, Albany ; J. 
N. Woolley, Poughkeepsie ; and E. Gifford, Hudson. 
The testimony of C. N. Bement, Esq 
Among the new implements exhibited at the State Fair last fall, 
none seemed to attract the attention more, or appeared to meet the 
views of the multitude better, than the Horse Hoe"or Cultivator Plow, 
exhibited by Mr. Barnabus Langdon of Troy. 
_ It affords me great pleasure to have it in my power to speak ofthe me¬ 
rits of this implement from experience, having used one the past sea¬ 
son in my corn. My corn ground was laid off in squares, planted in 
the corners, leaving the hi’ls three feet apart, which enabled me to 
run the Horse Hoe both ways. The edges of the share being sharp, 
cutup the weeds, which, with the soil, passes jpvertfee cutters, and 
leaves the soil very light and loose. 
The breadth of the share is sufficient for rows of three feet wine, 
as it loosens and breaks up the soil beyond the reach of the share, 
and after passing through the crop both ways, there is little left for the 
hand hoe to do. 
It is a very efficient implement, and I have the testimony of a num¬ 
ber of farmers and gardeners who have used it, who all speak in 
the highest terms of it. I did not try it for digging potatoes as my 
crop was on a side hill; but those who did try it, say it exceeds any 
thing of the kind which has been introduced for that purpose. Three

BURRALL'S PATENT WHEEL PLOW. 
T HIS is a new article, having, instead of the common landside, a 
wheel in its place, which receives nearly the whole weight of the 
plow and pressure of the furrow, and is found on thorough and re¬ 
peated trial to save more than 30 per cent, of the draft. It also light¬ 
ens materially the labor of the plowman, especially among ro ots and 
stones, and on rough land. It runs lighter, wears better and keeps in 
repair longer than the common plow, and is in all respects, a valuable 
acquisition to the farmer.

JL N. Y.—The subscriber has three valuable improved Farmsj 
comprising about 450 acres in good cultivation and well water- 
de, with three good farm houses and large and convenient out¬ 
buildings attached, which he would rent on shares on favora¬ 
ble terms, to good tenants, who are capable, intelligent and : n- 
dustrious farmers, and possess sufficient capital to carry on the

furnished, favorably known to visiters as the ‘ Mansion House,’ 
and well patronised for several years past, in the immediate vi¬ 
cinity of the celebrated “Union Spring.” The house is capa¬ 
ble of accommodating from 40 to 50 boarders, and would be con¬ 
nected with one of the farms at a low cash rent, or let sepa¬ 
rately to one qualified to keep a respectable establishment. 
If desired, two of these farms may be united into one, to an 
enterprising farmer able to conduct both. Further description
