AREVOLUTION IN FARMING.
Corn PlanteA hY "a;

A SUBSTITUTE for the slow and tedious process Of
"a planting has long been oesideratum; hut In
ta the Abored efforts Of inventive genius has failed
In ts production though years and much money have
been spent to accomplish so great piece Of mechanism
Some estimate OF the importance Of invention that
win materially facilitate the production Il this great staple
be formed from the fact that in 1856 500 600 600
bushels raised the United States exceeding in
value all other grams with the entire cotton crop in ad
diton.
The present universal method Of this great crop
(ser the ground pouphed) by marking out the
face 81 or feet apart each way, and in the angles hus
formed drops or kernels and covers with hoe
at expense Of TO 81 % per bat fiure Of part
and sometimes the whole crop results from he dill Guilty o.
obtaning sufficient force at the proper time in the spring
TO secure the planting IN most critical period.
Practical U33ersta1d this eccyVlobere Numerous
devices and machines have been made but failure has
only resulted plan perfect In one respect was certain
10 fail in another to render the Whole worthless
No machine until now has been uade 20 meet the uni
yersa demand Of tie farming int res in HILL, chick
angular planting TO enable hn 10 cultivate with
plough and horse-hOe the cropboth ways between the
rows
DrP planting abandoned because OF the mpossbilty
Of Guilty. alton in but direction.
The long wished for machine has been invented and per-
fecied by Young Scntchman aud the result three
years unwearei efforts lent investigation and the ap
pcation Of scientific and mechanical principles to
The device is entirely new simple and beautiful, work
ing auonioay and yet 80 ingenously and naturally
almost 10 appear Ibe result OF instinct.
What Whtneys great invention did for cotton this great
er invention will do for namely augment the quantity
and din uish cost.
