IMPORTANT TO FARMERS.
MOre's Patent Grain Drill.
--latest improvement. Patented 1850.
I. s. DITmARs, CADIz, OHIo.

Having purchased the exclusive right to make
and sell the DRILL in the counties Of Han son,
jefferson, Belmont, and Carroll, is now prepared
to receive orders from purchasers.
To those who are not acquainted with the use
Of the Drill, he will specify among It's many advan
tages, those Of saving in planting one-half bushe
To the acre, its producing at least from five to ten
bushels more to the acre than in sowing in any
other way, its preventing and protecting the grain
from freezing out in the severest weather, being
the only means Of i~nsuring an abundant crop. 1t
operates equally well on all kinds Of land, and is
not injured by coming ia contact with rocks, roots,
&c. II will plant point rows in all irregular
shaped fields, without planting any part twice
over. II will plant from s to II acres per day
with wv horses, Of any of the small grains, with a
saving Of one-third Oflabor, leaving a ridge Of earth
between the rows. To those acquainted with
planting in that way, he will say that this is the
latest, best end cheapest improvement in sowing
machines, that il possesses the most decided ad-
vantages over any other Drill that has yet been
made. 1t will cost but $50, a smaller size $50,
which is considerably lower than other drills. Its
benefits will exceed the most sanguine expecta-
tons of any farmer-the gain by using the drill
over the old way of planting, on 30 acres, will more
than pay for the Drill in one planting. 1t has re-
ceived the first premiums at Baltimore, October
I25, 1850, at Philadelphia, and of all 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. A visit to the fields of Peter Thomas
John Haverield, Judge Mcfarland. and many 9th
ers in Harrison county, who planted a part OF then
grounds with this Drill last fall, will satisfy any
; person of its great advantages. He deems it he
cessary to annex but a single certificate, one from
a well known citizen of Harrison county.
CADIz, Ohio, April IL, Isl.
planted last fall, with Moore's Patent Grail
Drill, about 10 acres in wheat, in which sayet
one-half bushel of seed to the acre, and on which
: 10 acres, | am confident, the increase and differ
! ence in favor of the drill, over the old ways o
planting, on the same kind of land, will pay 70
the Drill: To test the utility of this, | planted OF
the same ground in all the other different ways
and that planted with the Drill, will, lam satisfied
produce 10 bushels more to the acre than any o
the rest-and | cheerfully recommend it to farm
: era, believing it to be greatly to their interest
/ they only plant 10 acres in wheat.
