PATENT PLOWS.

PATIENT FLOWS.
The Bladed Plow is cheap and strong,
Will pulverize-and last so long,
That he who by the Plow would thrive,
Must surely M of WYcHE's drive.
Poor Richard, REUSED.
EAIR experiments have shown that from 10 to
so per cent. more wheat and oats come up
when plowed in by the Bladed Plow, than when
turned under with the ordinary pillow that corn,
cotton, tobacco, de-, require less labor in planting,
come up better, and are much more easily tended,
and that the product is largely increased.
This light and durable pillow is easy to both
driver and team, and can be cheaply and readily
repaired.
The Mole Plow upward splits the sod,
And scarcely leaves a single clod,
Mixes and drops the furrow-slice
Just where it was before, SO nice!
The subsoil or Mole Pillow, with a vertical cutter
near the edge of the middle of the shave and a
cutting plate on tie ~posterior part of the shave fol
turning the soil in towards the pillow, operates in
different way from any other-breaking close tie
nacious lands thoroughly, and allowing weeds root
and grass to pass over the cutters.
Orders for any quantity Of the above Plow
may be sent to Uriah Wells, Petersburg Va. Q
Blake, Barnard & Co., Nos. %, "a & %, Merchant

turing will be made with othe4 soon.
