day. a number of our leading farmer:
ere present. The machine sowcd Lime
Ashes. Plaster aad wet Chip dirt. BROAD
cast. and ashes and plaster on corn rows
The test was severe owing to the fact that
all the materials used were damp and
heavy. It is easily adjusted and will sow
any quantity desired, from one bushel per
acre, to hundreds of bushels. The trial
gave entire satisfaction to all, and several
machines were at once ordered by farm
ers who were present. An examination
will convince any one that this machine
will do, and do well all that the inventors
claim. As a lime spreader alone it would
be Of almost inestimable value to farmer
but it is equally useful in distributing re G.
ularly all other kinds fertilizer.
1t is also adapted to sowing broadcast
wheafa and fertilizer at the same time. A
piece of wheat sowed in this manner can
be seen OH the farm of Capt, McGinnis.

The Wheat Prospect.

We have received letter from friend
in Davis Township, IN which he says Il
find by close examination that my prospect
for wheat is not so encouraging. l have \
small lot which was sowed in wheat, few
days before that dashing rain last fall. 1t
was drilled with about twenty-five bushels
OF Rhodes Phosphate to the acre. 1t Is
now more than knee high. but, upon ex-
animation, find that the fly and another
small insect has injured it to such all ex-
tent, that scarcely expect to get my seed.
Judging by my own, tho prospect is not
good.

Burgardien's Paste Glue.

together various broken things, such
a. iIon, blocks of stone or wood Of
the largest sizh, or the most delicaie e
fragments of statuary, vases, mosaics,

thing. With n small brush spread
the siliclte of hqIid pntassa over the

together as closely as possible. After
being kept in this position a short

even strike the article a considerable
blow without breaking it. Neither

adhesion.
