vim Of = Sampson. TO illustrate it more
fully: ! saw Rob -, or Mr.. II. Folk place,
running around cotton with . piOw he claims
to have manufactured, it plowS two tlrrow$
at once, that Is in running around cotton,
anI one male does the wori; OF two. ana re-
attempt 20 describe !! to you, first the plOw
stock consists Of iw0 loot pieces placed per-
pcndiCularly. and twO cross pieces 10 hold
til m fast, thca an ordinary beam is connect
cd to til" tw3 foo: pieces, then 10 each of
tic two fnot pieces is r,$tcucl plow by
means Of an ordinary bolt, and IN ordinary
board is placed 10 the inside Of each foot
piece 10 prevent the dirt from falling on the
cotton. Ii any Of Your readers desire 10 use

they will save time by calling OF Rob for in
formation and taking 4 Look II his, for il

AMI two hands.
Mr.. Aichy Sloan has i p!ow Of his make
which needs but oEe horse TO plow two fur
rows in running ":o~ul corn; it lr>t plowS
into the first one do rot feel competent to
describe it, bnt il il Il capital plow, and any
one can make one II little or no cost. Is there

rows Il. once. and rum around cotton, or ploW
cora two lurroWs 1T once, think hc is max
