MOORE,s PATENT GRAIN DRILLS

For Drilling Wheat, Rye, Barley &c &c.
VNIlESE Machines operate well on all kinds ofland
u and are not injured by coming in contact with
rocks. ronls, &c, They will plant point rows all r.
regular shaped folds without sowing any part twice
over. Thny will with ease for two horses plant from
ten TO twelve acres porday of Wheat,Rye Barley and
other small grain. Thny will save from two to three
pecks Of seed per acre, and yield from 20 to % per
cent more than tie broadcast seeding, by distributing
tbs grain uniformly at any desired depth and leaving
ridge OF earth between the rows. Tho roots of the
young plant are protected during the winter by tho
action of the frost and rain moudaring the earth upon
thcn instead of being thrown out and exposed as In
broadcast On this account the stalk Is stronger AMI
less subject TO midew, and Is not 80 liable to injury
Iby fly. Tho farmer Is frequently prevented by rain
from narrowing in his grain after II Is sown which
narrowing Is not necessary in seeding with tho Ma
chimes as they complete the work at once
This ssMachino for convenience, simplicity and
cheapnass, IL superior to any now in use The price
being SOD for Machine with 0, and 500 for one with
4 hose.

This may certify that purchased and used last op
son one Of Mnorl's Patent Wheat Drills and without
hesitation recommend it to all wheat growers as one
of tho most valuable improvements offered to tho az.
ricultural conmlintylDr the simple reason that II
docs tho work bettrtaes third less s1ed saves
from % to 30 por cont Of labor in putting out and
generally, and upon lands liable to lreczo out when
sown in the common way will give more than double
the yicld drilled some 10 acres last fall for my
IneighbOIs all o whom concur with in the opinion
that il has many decided advantages over all othor
modes olputting out wheat drilled field for John
Arney, rs T., who Sowed another field in the common
way and believe all who have examined tho two
fields gvo II their opinion that tho drilled field will
nearly IL not quito double tho broadcast in tho Weld
notwithstanding the field sown in the common way
tva4 llal lrnuh hngI n gtr ttVnul
lna field of mine of fifteen acres had three acres
spwn broadcast, two bushels of seed per acre, the
balance ofthe field drilled with ono bushel of seed
p'r the drilled wheat much the largest anil
when we came to harvest the thickest the ground.
This machine operates we'll on sumpy, hilly or cod.
dy ground, which have fully tested and have no he.
station in ayng Is much beltcr than either the plcw
or harrow. JOSHUA CLARKE,
