WoODRUFF's BAROMETER and Their
mOmeter combined, for which VIM. J.
Fleming is the agent for this county, is
no doubt one of the best instruments Of
that kind ever got up for general use.
Every farmer should have one, for where
the weather is so essential as it is to farm
ing, any observant man can soon learn
the indications for fair or stormy weather.
The editor of the American Agriculturist
speaks of it as follows:
We have watehedthe barometer for ma
ny Years, and seldom if ever knew q
/ change from wet to dry, or the reverse,
that was not indicated by rise or fall of
/ the mercury. And most of these chang
Is are governed by definite rules, upon
which all scientific men have agreed.
There are local or general exceptions to
(. these rules, as when the atmospheric pres
sure Is modified by the direction or velO-
city of the wind. But these are only eX-
ceptlons, which careful observers must
. necessarily learn partly by experience,
. and must take into account We assert
positively and without fear of successful
retutation, that any careful, observant
man, VINO VIII rightly watch good bar
ometer, will soon learn to predict the an
/ proach of wet or dry weather, from two
to twenty hours in advance, in very
large majority of cases. A watch is use
less To a savage who can't tell the time.
We repeat unhesitatingly, that barom-
eter il Of very great value TO every farmer
or other person, OH land or sea, to whom
1t is important to be forewarned of the
Immediate approach of a storm. To I've
most highly useful, it must of course be-
d carefully observed. The novice may, and
g probably will, sometimes fail, and the
careless man will often do SO, owing to
8 the occasional exceptions to genearl rules
q which he may not have learned to pro-
vide for in his calculations; vet with this
u drawback, it will be of great use to any
one who is willing to devote the slightest
care aud attention TO the instrument. We
s. nave no personal interest in any particu-
lar form or Manufacture, but we have lat
'eriy commended and placed in our pre-
Alium list those made by Charles Wilder
81 and called 'Woodruff's Mercurial Bar
q nneter," because its particular form rem.
II Gers it SO portable and convenient. as well
Us for its general good make, and we shall
do so again. The permanent character
q and portability of the Woodruff instrn
ment, Impels us To place that above nj
others OF similar cost for common use,
