PENNOCK'S
INPB0VID WHEAT & GJAN0 DRILL

GUANO is scarce and DEAR and you can
~ make one-half produce your full crop by
using PENNOCKS WHEAT AND GUANO
DRILL. There is no humbug in this. Scores
of our best and most reliable farmers will GER
tify to it,
Where it is preferred to put in the full guam
tity, it may be done with entire safety, and the
crop will be proportionably heavier. There is
economy also in the secd--li bushels to the
acre being sufficient when drilled in. The
guage is complete and reliable for both Wheat
and Guano-any desired quantity of grain
being sown, and any quantity Of Guano from
% to 300 lbs. to the acre.
This Drill is greatly improved since last
year, India Rubber tubes being used in place OF
leather; the Guano slide is much heavier, and
its working reliable, and the scraping spade so
secured as to ensure clean working without IL
ability TO pack the Guano. 1t is now altogeth-
er a complete and perfect working machine,
and farmers will consult their true interest in
using it for putting in their wheat crop.

Guano Drill at the Factory in Wilmington,

LARGE AND SNAIL PoTAToEs. Mr..
j. II. Hamilton gives a sketch of his
experience in planting large and small
potatoes. The produce of the large po-
tatoes was one-third greater than that of
the small seed He is inclined to the
opinion that large potatoes are preferable
for seed. No doubt he is right in his
opinion. 1t is general law of nature
that like begets like" though it is we'll
known there are exceptions to all ge neral
rules.
In the Irish Farmers Gazette, 9Th of
November, Mr. Dixon gives the result
of his experiments in planting large and
small potatoes the past season. The
large potatoes selected weighed about
half pound each-planted exactly a
yard apart each way; product, few
pounds short of eight tons per acre
The small seed, either whole or cut in
the usual way, Welded seven tons pei
acre The samples from the large seed
were decidedly the best.
Yes, large seed potatoes are preferable
to small, beyond doubt; but those O
medium size, uncut, are better than
either; and although small ones viii
give nearly as large crop, especially i
the season is wet, yet they never SHOULD
be planted, except when others cannot
well be obtained, and then the produce
should not be used for seed the mex
year.
