Among the agricultural implements on
exhibition we were much pleased with the
display made by G. Marsh, of Adams eoun-
ty, who represents the Louisville Agricul-
tural Werks. of Louisville KY. The Excel
sior Plows, both cast and Steel, took first
premium over all competitors in actual con-
-test. The perfect construction of these
plows are such that they will not stick in
any soil when the ground is in fit condition
for blowing and of very light draft. Ia
connection with the Excelsior Flows,
So soil attachm cut can be furnished, sothat
blowing and subsoiling can be accomplished
at the same time. The subsoil attachment
can be raised or lowered, or taken off at
pleasure. This subsoil attachment also
received first premium. Planters who prac-
tice subsoiling will find this combination of
great value. Mr.. 81. has on exhibition
some valuable labor saving implements Of
his own invention, adapted to tie wants of
all classes and soil. His single craper pillow
and sweep made to fit one plsw stock, is a
poor mans friend. The scrsper will turn
a flrrow where any pillow can run; it has
wo cutting edges, and it is simply imposst-
BILE for it to choke. 1t carries its dirt to The
middle, wrapping the same perfectly. After
the two first furrows-are run with turning
pillow, any ordinary middle can be thrown
out at two burrows. III &ling as perfect
plant bed as can be made by the best turn
ing plow. 1t is equally ueful in laying by
crops. The scraper runs light and is held
with accuracy and ease. Pillow sweep and
scraper all of hardened seel complete 1925
at Factory Mash's Mississippi Double
Cotton Scraper, Hitler anl Cultivator, forms
a combination that seems to have novelty
and merit. 1t scrapes both sides of the low
at once. With hillirg plOws and shovel
pillow combined sweeps ont entire middle at
once. Its principle of working is to cut
and cover the grass, has no show where this
implement is used
This implement is adjustable to suit all
work. Planters who cultivate old lands
free of roots and stumps, and who prepare
their land with care, can, by the use of this
implement, do double labor at all times

double garden pillow will be found Of great
Importance to gariners and planters. Can
be used by horse or hand power, throwing
the dirt to or from young plants. In billing
young cotton the first time, all planters
realize the importance of killing their COT
ton as soon as possible after it il thnned
out, and the difficulty of doing it with our
ordinary turning plow. The double gar
den pillow accomplishes this with rapidly,
putting the earth into immediate contaet
with the young cotton plants.
Marsh's cotton thinner to facilitate the
cutting out of the cotton drill to obtain a
stand of cotton is of great importance to the
planter, his success depends much upon the
time required to thin out and hill up the
young cotton the fest time forcing the
growth of the young plants and keeping in
check all noxious growth. 1t would occupy
too much space ard time 10 give worthy
description OF this implement. 1t is very
simple in its construction, has no cog work,
easily guided, and adjustable in all its parts.
This implement received silver medal prem
iums at the Louisiana State Fair, Nov II.
All of Marsh's implements deserVedly took
the first premium in our State Fair. Ten
blue ribbons testify the high appreciation
of the awarding committee. For all par
ticuars parties interested can address c.
