The Celebrated Rockford or Nanny Seede.

Reasons why it is the best and only per-
feet seeder in use:
lst. 1t was awarded the first premium at
ten State, and every county, fair where
exhibited, for 1868.
ID. 1t has the best slip tooth, works well
in corn stalks, and will throw out of gear
in backing.
Sd. 1t has a separate box for sowing
grass-seed.
4th. We have responsible agents in every
town, who keep a full assortment eft extras,
and no time will be lost in case of acct
dents
9TH They are all made of Michigan
White Ash; and the best of workmen are
employed on them, and but few castings
are used.
9th. The demand shows their success
We have already l. 200 orGers for the coun-
ties of Iowa, Grant and La Fayette; and
have received over 900 machines, at diff
terent points, and are now delivering over
100 per day from our different agencies in
the three counties.
Z. 1t is the lowest priced machine in
market this season, with all the above ad-
yantages.
See tie Nanny before goa order!
IMPORTANT IMPROVEMENT NO OTHER MACHINE

very important, especially in damp oats

NEW School APPARATUs.-A few
days since We were shown a list of the ar
ticles proposed to be purchased for our city
schools wita the money received at the
School Festivals recently held, and we are
free to say that IN our opinion better Sc
lection could not have been made. Super
intendent HASscoM, by close attention 70
the schools during his term of office, has
made himself fully acquainted with their
wants, and devoted his time as but few men
would have done, to supplying every def
cheney as far as lay in his power. The Office
Of School Superintendent Is probably one
Of the most important among the minor
Offices within the gift of the people, and at
the same time subjects its holder to more
iault-indinE than almost any other 1t can
hssdIy be expected that with nine schools
under his superintendence, with from FIVE
70 Six hundred children in attendance, s.
term of school would pass without dissatis-
faction on the part Of some. and yet we
usual during the past year. Mr.. HANSON
has proved himself competent for the po-
sition. and one of the most faithful school
officers we have ever had Nothing within
his power tn accomplish To place our pub-
lie schools high in the scale Of educational
facilities, has been left undone. We trust
our citizens will visit the schools as soon
as the articles selected shall be secured
and placed in position, and judge for them
selves of the righteousness of the selection.

WE understand an article has APP

Gently, that has been made the subject of
criticism and censure from the pulpit of
one of the Churches in this city. We are

our respect for the Christian religion and
regard for those who profess it, sufficiently
strong TO cause an exclusion from our col

summation of our flies for several weeks
