MOre's Patent Grain Drill.


Having purchased the exclusive right to make
and sell the DRILL in the counties Of Han son,
jefferson, Belmont, and Carroll, is nov prepared
TO receive orders from purchasers.
To those who are not acquainted with the use
Of the Drill, he will specify among its many advan
tsges, those Of saving in planting one-half bushe
10 the acre, its producing at least from five to ten
bushels more to the acre than In sowing in any
other way, lis preventing and protecting the grain
from freezing out in the severest weather, being
the only means Of insuring an abundant crop. Il
operates equally well on all kinds Of land, and s
not injured by coming in contact with rocks, roots,
&c. II win plant point rows In all irregular
shaped fields, without planting any part twice
over. 1t will plant from to II acres per day
with two horses of any of the small grains, with q
saving of one-third Of labor, leaving ridge Of earth
between the rows. To those acquainted with
planting in that way, he viii say that this is the
latest, best end cheapest improvement in sowing
machines, that it possesses the most decided ad-
Vantages over any other Drill that has yet been
made. II will cost but $50, q smaller size $50,
which is considerably lower than other drills. It's
benefits will exceed the most sanguine expecta-
tions Of any farmer-the gain by using the drill
over the Odwsy of planting on 30 acres, will more
than pay for the Drill in one planting. It has re-
ceived the first premiums at Baltimore, October
95, 1850, at Philadelphia, and Of oil the other i'm
portant Agricultural Societies. The best recon.
mendations can be given from persons in the cOun
ties Of this and other States where this Drill is now
in use. visit to the fields of Peter Thomas
John Haverfeld, Judge Mcfarland. and many 9th.

cessary to annex but q single certificate, one from
