We trust that tome Of our inventors will get

The PLow CUlT1yAToR~-etaHord's paten,
had trial and gave the most entire sadsiac

! the work most admirably. For the planting
of wiIter wheat 1t must be valuable, dispens

the putting in Of spring wheat and oats, ant
to prepare fall p1owtd land for corn Yea
after year the harrow is becoming less yalu
able, and we should not be surprtsed to see /

call to mind our prediction that the so mnc
lauded grain drill would go out Of date IN les

The cultiyatoss hare had a partial tria
which is to be resumed in the morning. Th
competition is close, as &ll Of them are (
great value, differing mainly in case Of dro
and durability. Ali do good work.
Many manufacturers gre deferred fro1

Society receives nothing dor visitors at thes
