MICHIGAN DOUBLE PLOW

MICHIGAN DOUBLE PLOK
in the western States, he would call the atten-
ton of Farmers and others interested to the
merits of this Plow. When used Us breaking
plow, it turns the sod over into the bottom of
the furrow, and the back pillow brings mp the soil
loose and covers it completely, leaving q smooth
and light seed bed, enabling the new conner in
the West to get a good crop from his first plOw-
! ing-as good as can ever be raised on the soil.
The sod, stubble, clover, manure, or whatever
else lies upon the surface of the ground. is put
down so low (being in the bottom of the furrow)
that cultivator or drag will not bring itup.
Sod is made mellow summer fallow, and
for corn, will tend with about one half the labor
it would require after single pillow. Another
advantage of this plow over any other Is, that
it will pillow q deep trench furrow, and will draw
easier than single pillow, run at the same depth
and width and the draft is as light with the for
ward pillow as without it. This Plow is manu-
featured from the very fine quality of German
steel it has been so altered by the subscriber
that tits warranted TO seour in any western
soil. The first premium has been awarded this
pillow as being the best now in use 70 all purposes,
at the State Fairs in New York, Pennsy lvania,
Ohio, Indiana, Michigan and Illineis, and at
every county Fair at which it has been exhibit
ed. The following Houses on the Missouri Tiv-
