By particular request have examined the Ameri-
can Corn Planter, adversedby Hartley & Co and though
their statements look rather strong they nevertheless
true.
The machine is exceedingly simple, but drops correctly
the corn in the hill and marks the situation OF each hill
the same time Any kind of friabe FERTILIZER such as
guano, pouderette plaster ashes hne compost may be
put in simultaneously with pumpkin seed and disrbut
ed dt usual distancesaH done without cranks cogs,
or gearing of any kind We don't see how it can get out
Oh orderand the corn, fertilizer and pumpkin seeds
all put in the hills which placed by the machine in
checks or squares both ways equi The whole
work is done in the time it takes by the plan of
lurowng out in one direction and this is usually at the
rate Of ten acres a day.
