"THE ANsoN HARDY CUTTING MACHINES
are the best and cheapest low priced
machine made, and have national repu-
tation for utility and durability."-ih The
Eectrotyper, Chicago.
THE ANsoN HARDY PAPER CUTTER is by
fur the best machine which can be OBJ
ttained for less price than ono hundred
dollars. 1t is Of great strength These
machines have always taken tho highest
stand. 1t is the only machine to which
is applied the Patent Movable Cutting
Board This device has reputation of
itself: by it, the cutting board can be in
stantly and accurately moved, so thut u
perfect cut is insured, This is very I'M
portant point in the machine, and one
that is possessed by no other. 1t greatly
reduces the labor Of preparation in work
ing the paper backward and forward.
We cannot too strongly recommend the
advantages of this patent movable board.
1t is worth the price of this machine, and
purchasers should fully understand how
highly it is to be valued. Geo. p, RoueU

WHAT Sort OF SPRING SHALL WE
HAVE ?-It will not be adjustable to
hazard much on on early spiaing in
the year Of grlco 1877. Why? Be-
cause the Accumulate ions of Zee and
snow in tho Northwest and North
are unprecedented, aud atmospheric
currents from these quarters will
necessarily bo cold until these accu-
mulations disappear, which cannot
be expected till late in the season.
1t is true that with prevalence Of
southerly or easterly winds we may
have generally warm weather early,
but always subject to blighting nips
and frosts whenever the winds reach
us from the snow banks, md with
these tho ambitious gardener win
meet with a setback, Wo make no
prophecy, hut this seems to BE the
philosophy of tho situation, and wo
shall act upon it, We look for a
good doal of cold weather yet, and
hopo that tho severity of the
winter thus far will improve the
cropping season when it
does come.-Macon $685. zsle-
