Flowing by wind Power.

The Scientific American publishes a
letter from an inventor who proposes
to revolutionize the present system of
cultivating the earth. He describes a
machine that is rugged with large wind
mill sails, has tiller for steering, will
travel up Hill or down, and with the
wind in any direction. A full sized one
of sixty horse power may be depended
upon to draw ten plows four miles an
hour, blowing four acres an hour, with
but one man in attendance. It will also
harrow, and furnish the power to SOW,
reap and NOW, thresh, grind, carry loads
to market or irrigate lands. Will travel
ten miles an hour in any direction and
carry twenty passengers, provided there
is good breeze. The machines are not
expensive to build. Surely there must
be ga good time coming" for farmers.
