las to the team, than any plough IL
Iuse known to me.
| The following extract of a letter
from Gen. Thomas NJ. Freeman,
of Maryland. on the subject Of
this plough, viii be read with the
greatest interest, and is of high au-
thority to show its incalculable
value.
RosE-HiLL, l4th Ger. 1916.
Woods improved patent cast
iron ploughis the bestploughwhich
| have ever seen. Your ground did
not allow it fair play, & yet the work
lis better executed than without
occular proof | could have believed
possible. Exclusive Of its power
to completely turn the earth, it
unites beauty of form to lightness
and strength. No. l was a play
thing to horses (two) in your rough,
uncommonly weedy and foul
ground. 1t is strong, because
chiefly of iron, and that iron so ar
ranged as to form resisting braces.
The use of the screw to set it deep
er or shoaler, does away the use Of
the wedge, which has split and de-
stroyed SO many teams.
The cast shares, at the price
demanded, is an immense i'm
Iprovement, in country where we
pay such enormous prices to the
blacksmiths. | should recon-
mend to the patentee, that every
mould board and share should be
subjected to a proof before they are
taken from the furnace. Fatal
flaws will sometimes happen in
castings of every description. !

HEMP AND FLAX.

The following is an advertise
ment copied from late London
paper" Messrs. Hill and Bundy
beg leave to inform the public,
that their patent machines for the
working of fax and hemp, fit for
spinning, are ready to deliver.
Flax may be worked by them i'm
mediately after tits harvested, with
out the necessity of dew-rotting,
or water-steeping, and the produce
will be one ton of fire from four
tons of stem. The machines will
also work the dew-rotted and wa
ter stepped fax, with a great saving
in the material, and at one sixth
the expense Of the old method :
they will produce one ton of good
fibre to five tons of stem.
Besides the great saving in the
materials, the machines will work
the fax in the state it is harvested,
at SIS. per hundred weight. They
will work the inferior harsh foreign
flax and hemp to great advantage ;
for when softened, and the fibre is
split and made fine by them, these
articles are increased in value 40
per cent. The machines are work
ed by hand, and so simple that
three parts of the labour is done by
children. They do not require
any fixing: the largest is only
three feet long, two wide and four
in height"
From report of the committee
of the house of commons, where
these machines are exhibited, ii
appears that the additional quantity
OF material produced by them
from the same quantity of land,
now in the cultivation of flax,
would provide employment ir
lspinning and weaving to thou
sands.-Eceter Watckaman.

Jethro Woods patent cast iron
plough just introduced, may be
considered one Of the greatest of
modern Improvements upon the
plough. 1t combines the powers
of the wedge and screw, requires
less team, and most effectually
turns over the furrow. The share
is of cast iron and attached to the
mould board by screws. The
beam is raised or lowered at pleas
