BRIGGS ENOCH's EXHIBIT ROCKFORD ILL.
Down in the midst of the agricultural ma.
chinery at the east end of the grounds may be
seen an attractive display of the various kinds
of plows now in use in all parts of the United
States. We refer to the exhibit of Briggs Il

agent for the State. In the catalogue, and
prominent among them all, stands the justly
celebrated Skinner sulky," a pillow that is
pflleo ZOE Ass strenStn, ugnt uraII anu slM-
plicity. The demand for these plows this sea-
son has been in excess of the company's abili-
ty to supply, and yet its manufacturing capaci-
ty is very large. The gang, as an old ground
pillow and prairie breaker, sulky pillow for
trenching, stubble blowing and prairie breaker,
is highly recommended. Then there is the
new staver breaker, and a general line of walk
ing plows, all of which are popular among
farmers, but more especially the wonderful
sulkies. In addition there is to be seen new
walking cultivator that attracts much attention.
1t is an ingenious piece of workmanship, was
gotten up by Mr.. Skinner, and it combines all
the important requisites, ease of draft, utility,
simplicity and durability. The stirring plows
manufactured by this company cannot be sur
passed anywhere, and the sulkies, say those
by whom they have been tested, have no equal.
Eleven of these sulkies are now being used on
the Horace Thompson farm, at Heron
Lake, this State. At the Rock county
associations farm large number of gang
plows are in use, and many of the largest farm
ers of the Northwest are adopting them. A long
list of testimonials from the most extensive
and reliable farmers of Minnesota and other
Western States tell the story.
