New HAY RAKE. Josh Billings
thus speaks of new agricultural i'm
plement, to which the attention of
farmers is invited: Rogers revolving,
expanding, unceremonious, self-ad-
justing, self-contracting, self-greasing,
self-righteous boss rake is now fore
yer offered to a generous publik.
These rakes are as easy to keep in re-
pair as hitching post, and will rake
up paper of pins sowed broadcast in
ten-akrc field of wheat stuble. Theze
rakes can be used in winter for hen
roost, or be sawed up in stove wood
for the kitceen fire. No farmer OF
good moral karakter should be with
out this rake, even if he has to steal
one.
