l REVOLUTION IN FARMING.
Corn Planted by Machinery.

A SUBSTITUTE for the slow and tedious process Of
n planting corn has long been ,csderaum; but an
I'll the labored efforts Of inventive genius has failed
in It's production, though years and much money have
been spent accomplish great piece Of meChan
Some estimate OF the importance OF invention that
viii materially facilitate the production 4 this great staple
be formed the that in 1886 $50 600 600
bushels raised in the Untd States exceeding in
value all other grains with the entire cotton crop in sd
! diton.
The present Universal method Of planting this g. eat crop
(afer the ground pOuphed) By marking out the sur
face 81 feet apart each way, and IN the angles thus
formed drops or kernels and covers with hoe
at expense Of TO 81 % per hut failure OF part
obtaining sufficient force at the proper time Ia the spring
TO secure the planting al thu most critical period
Practical understand his sre,Vtciore Numerous
devices snd machines have been made, but failure has
only resulted plan perfect in one respect was certain
10 fail In another, 20 render the whole worthless.
No machine until has been made meet The uni.
versa demand Of the farming interests in HILL, chick
angular Planting, as TO enable him to cultivate with
plough and horseshoe the crOp-both ways between the
rows
Din planting abandoned because OF the impossbIy
! Of cultivation in but one direction.
The long wished for machine has been invented and per-
ected bv young scotchman, and is the result Of three
unweared efforts patent nvetiRaton and the APP
phcaton Of scientific and mechanical principles 10 accom-

What Whtney's great invention did for cotton this great
er invention will do namely augment the quantity
and dim nsh cost.
