AREVOLUTION IN FARMING

Some estimate Of the importance Of invention tha

bushels raised in the Und States, exceeding IL

The present universal method Of planting this great cor

and sometimes the whole crop results from the difficulty
obtaining ,ucient force at the proper ts IN the spring
to secure the planting at th@ most critical period
Practical men understand ms eCe,yschere. Numerous
devices and machines have been made, but failure has
only resulted. plan perfect in respect certain

No machine until now has been made TO meet the uni

plough and horse-hoe the crop-both ways between the
rows.
Drill planting abandoned because OF the impossblty

The long wished for machre has been invented and per-
