THE EUREKA CORN PLANTER.
THIS NEW CORN PLANTER,

THIS NEW CORN PLANTER,
Just perfected by H. M. Smith & CO., accom-
plishes what has always been a desideratum in
Corn Planters, namely: absolute certainty as to
the quantity of seed planted and as to the dis
lance between the hills.
All planters, depending upon a brush to keep
back the corn, are liable to variation, as any
press OF the seed causes the brush to YIELD and
increases the quantity dropped.
THE EUREKA HAS NO BRUSH.
new and simple device supersedes the neces-
sity of it, and insures ABSOLUTE REGU-
LARITY in the number of grains deposited.
IT is THE BEST CORN PLANTER IN USE
The following unsolicited praise, expresses the
opinion of all who have used it:
IsaLEsIDE, HANOVER, April %, 1870.
Messrs. H. II. Smith g. Co.:
GESTLEMES,-Mr Robinson on yesterday put
your Corn Planter TO work He says 1t is the
only planter he has ever seen that he would
work. We have at New Castle two other plant
ers, but would not use them. Mr.. Robinson, Mr.
Rufhn, DIR. Dupee and Mr.. Ashlin were all pre-
sent, and all preferred this-"Smth's Planter''-
to any they have ever seen work. We had near
ly finished planting before using yours. We
shall want for another year two or three of
them. The man, horse and planter are now do
ing the work of three horses and four hands.

TO THE PEOPLE OF VIRGINIA.

TNPRESENTING TO YOUR NOTICE, FOR
Il the fiji st time in an extended way, the F. F
FAM1LY FAVORITE) WEED SEWING-MA-
CHINE, we will state some of the reasons why
we think we are justified in claiming it to be the
BEST: ~
BECAUSE, before being offered to the people,
1t was tested by able sewing -machinists, and by
them so pronounced
BECAUSE, it took the first prize at the great
Paris Exposition in 1867;
BECAUSE, it took the first prize at the great
four weeks contest between sewing machines at
the Baltimore (Maryland) Institute in 1869;
| BECAUSE, it will do what any other first
class lock-stitch will do;
BECAUSE, it will do what most of them can
not do. We say this without disparagement to
the merits of other machines;
BECAUSE, in the five years it has been before
the people, the sale has been rapid that the
company have been unable to supply the de-
