Every farmer who is about to imrclwise a niachiuc de-sires to secure the l)08t the market ati'ords ; hut among the multii>Heity of maehinos otTorod, it is often dUlicult for him to satisfy himself which is best. My aim is to oHur sucli ImpleiuentH, t^c. , as liave I'eally proved tlieir superiority, and, with this aim in view, I submit tlio following pages, ) d ^ o ^ d W ^ t^ w Fii;. 2.

My stock of seeds of foreign growth is selected from the most relia- ble sources in Europe and the United States, while those of domestic groAvth are generally raised expressly for me and are under my i-ersonal supervisicm until harvested, by which means I can secure for my cus- tomers absolute certainty of the kinds and quality of my stock. My stock of agricultiu-al and farm seeds and grain is veiy complete, and is the largest in this department. My Extra Earhj Pm is one of the earliest, and believed to be the best grown, yielding well, and being very suitable for both farms and gardens, and is highly recommended by all market gardeners who have tried them. 6 Tho lujt of garden aeetla compriaoa all the latest and moat iniprovetl aa well as tho old atandard varietiea, and contains everything that ahould bo found in a kitchen garden.

Pai-tica who choose to leave the selection of vai'ictios to me, merely stating tho number of the dill'erent friiits and proportion for each season, may rely upon my endeavours to select such varieties as will be for thoii" interest and most likely to give satisfaction. Orders should be sent in early in the season, so that, especially when ii'oes are to be sent a great distance, I may have tho opportunity of shipping at an early date after the transplanting season opens. ,»''i:U(^Ui,;.' -!.??-?■■;■-' ■; 1, >!w ^ -A) FERTILIZERS. .^1 ' V"' Ground Bone. This has been fully proved one of the best top dressings for grass lands that can bo useil. All crops are benefited by it. From ten to twenty bushels per acre is the usual dressing, though more for a first-class dressing is better, as it requires several seasons to fully decompose it, and the effect of a large application will be felt for many years. It should be sown broadcast on grass land. On ploughed land, harrow it in Avith the seed, or apply it directly to tho crop, in hills or da-ills, just previous to planting. It is sliippcil in l?aiTol.i, containing about ono hiuiflrod and aoventy- five pounda i«ach. Two Grades of this Fertilizer are made. The Half-incli Ground Bone, wliich is very coarse, and the Fine licjue Dust, the latter being the most saleable .ind l>eneticial. SUPEKPUOSPHATE OF LiME. As a Fertilizer, the Superphosphate of Lime is highly commended, since it seems alDiost universally applicable, and, unlike some others, it may be ai)plied in varying i)roportion3, without any risk of injury. Full directions for applying it to best advantage will be furnished to all purchasei's. It is shipped in boxes of iO pounds each ; in biirrels of about 200 pounds each ; alsfj loose in any quantity. Ammoniated Bonk Fertilizek. For producing early crops and largo yiolils, this Fertilizer will bo found very beneficial. It will adil very nmch to the fertility of the land for throe or four years after it has been freely used, besides giving abundant crops the first season. It is shipped in barrels of 20U lbs. each, and in bags of 50 lbs. each. J^^ No charge for bags or barrels witli this Fertilizer. Peruvian- Guaxo. This is the most conccntrateil and valuable manure, being derived principally from the excrements of birds subsisting entirely on fish, which yield even richer deposits than those of our gallinaceous fowls, which are the strongest of all our aninial manures. The other original constituents of Perivian Guano are the uncon- sumetl remains of fish and birds that have perished, and whose reuiains and excrements have, by slow decay in an intensely warm climate, where no rain ever falls, thrown off most of their moisture and car- bonaceous matters and left only the highly concentrated salts, all of which are very essential to vegetable gi-owth. For grass lands sow broadcast just before a rain. One to three hundred pounds per acre is usually sown in drills or broadcast, covering lightly with a harrow, and planting the seed directly over it. Phospho Guano. This valuable manure la imported in its raw state from Islands in the Pacific Ocean. It contains about 40 per cent. Soluble Guano Phosphates, and other Taluable elements.

These Ploughs have become deserv- edly popular, owii.'g to the saving eilected in druught, manual labour, wear and tear. The demand for them is rajndly and steadily increasing. They are wholly carried on large angular r'mmed wheels, which not only carry their weight, but also resist the i)ressuro exerted in lifting ami turning the furrow. They have neither side ror sole plates, and hence are free from all friction, caused by tho rubbing action of the same ; the cvtting part of the Coul- ters and Shares are so constructed and arra' ged that they make rcom for the rest of Plough, and no part of it touches the soil or mould-board. By this arrangement the iower require:) to work the Plough is re- duced FITLLY A third. The Double-Furrow Plotigh can be drawn on heavy soil with ease by three horses, a;id on light soilby two; Among the advantages these Ploughs possess are the following : — 1st. — Economy in Draught. Tho work can be accomplished by fewer horses. On moderately heavy laml the Double-Furrow^ Plough drawn by three horses wtll plough thrre acres per day of nine hours, thus securing to the farmer a saving of not less than 30 per cent., or affording him the opportunity uf having his ploughing done quicker when a suitable season occurs. 2ml. — Economy in Manual Labour. With one of these Double- Furrow Ploughs ONE. man can do the work of two, if using the ordi • nary Plough, and with far mere ease, as they guide themselves, and only require attention in case of anything unusual in the soil. i - iii i il !i 3r(l.— Economy ix Wear axd Tear. The shares are made of steel, ami are so cheaply constructe*!, ami keep sharp so long, that the whole cost of keeping them up chjes not exceed the cost of sharpening the old iron share. 4th.— These Ploughs raise and loosen the land more tho- roughly ; from their construction they turn a deeper and broader furrow, and press it more closely than the ordinary ploughs. There bemg no sole plate, the subsoil is not glazed and haudkned as by the common plough, the advantage thus gained being gi-eat in all cases, but especially in damp soils. It is the opinion of those best qualified to judge, who have seen Gray's Improved Champion Double-Furrow Plou(;h worke.l along- side others, and under every variety of circumstances, that the quality of the work done, the strength and durability of the implement, the lightness of draught, the 8imi)licity and quickness of adjustment, and the general airangement for ease and simplicity of working combined under his Patent, render it the best implement of the class before THE public. It is a strong, efficient and durable implement, suitable for all KINDS of ploughing, and will also rib up to 18 inches in width. The two lifting levers afford additi(mal facilities for throwing the plough over fast stones or other obstructions in the soil, and the adjust- ing screws on both right and left hand levers make it easily ailjustable to any inequalities of the surface. On light land, or for ribbing, it can be worked by two horses, and on heavy and rocky land three horses can be used with safety. The framing is made of the best Avrought iron, and is easily ad- justed to plough any required width of fuiTow. The skifes or heads also are strong, and of the best wrought iron. The most crooked furrows can be easily straightened while THE implement IS AT WORK. In ploughing hilly land, the Patent Governor greatly facilitates the operation, when it is desirable to plough one fun-ow up the hill and two fun-ows down The new Governor can be adjusted to instantaneously / ALTER from TWO TO ONE FURROW (wliich is Sometimes required in finishing). This Plough, when (mce adjusted, is feelf-acting, following the hoi-ses without any attention from the ploughman, and works well in any kind of land. Triple-Trees, Of a new and superior style, suitable for working tliree horses abreast, can be furnished with the double furr<.w ploughs, or separately. 10 I so c5 .3 o U 93 r. . . gs O Ph o Ph M H 'J fJH CJ 5 rt 5:3 o o o o o o * rn " O c3 o o a '-' tH O M q > O _N p fl a 2 C o 5s to to o »— H o rs m O o o .^ 4) tog o a ■^ s to rS 2 ^ g g 4) c3 fH to--; rf to 2 "to ^1 toP-i •2 ^ +^ p to s "! d a o is a -^^ to • S to S 3 =^ - ;? .^ = -*j 'i^ =3 3H i« 93 -^.2 o o . . a: Eh O ^ 93 >i rt 1! ^ 2 S o d c3 y in' 03 rt aj 03 03 93 Pr a a 03 93 to to 5 5 o >1 S iH O e3 S 03 -fe ■-3 ?ci 9 5 to 91 "3 to C To ^ -2 « 2 -" t— I 2 I— I 3 S ^ ai -Q 93 -^ (V) cz 1 i 11 Fici. 5.— Gkay's Champion Sixgle-Furrow Plough. ^ .

It is made in tvo-nnv sections, four sections making up a haiTow of forty teeth, ami has a very lively nK)tion when at work ; lieing in small f-cctions, it readily jKljtists itself to uneven surfaces in the ground, is light to handle or move, and of easy draught. There is not a nut or key to remove when taking it apart, consequently no small parts to lose. 3^y taking out one of the inside sections, it makes a ligl'.t 30-tooth har"xiw, suitable for one horse or a i)air of colts ; and it can at any time lie enlarged by adding one or more sections, thereby making a 50 or GO-tooth harrow. The hinges or connections are so niTangcd that tliero is a joint exactly behind each horse and one Vietween them, so that when cither horse is walking in the furrow — or if the furrow is between them — the hari'ow will with ease adapt itself to the shape of the furrow, thus nicely dressing the edges of both lands at the same time. As soon as one siile of the teeth becomes blunt, you can hitch on to the other side of the harrow.

By bearing on the handles sufficient to raise the front rollers the sowing ceases, which is useful at the end of rows. The quantity to l)e sown is gauged by a band with hole 3 of various .sizes perforated in it which fits securely around each of the seed boxes. 1 31 Wood Roller Turnip Drill. This style is intended more especially for sowing on the level, the rollers not being grooved. The seed boxes are operated by means oi a chain attached to back roller.

Their advantages are summed up in a very few words. They save the heavy lugging labour of broadcasting, no desiral'le or pleasant task. They perfect the work as they go, leaving nothing to be ruined or lost by the impending storm. They protect the seed from the drouth of mid-summer, the frosts of winter, the bleak, cold drying winds of spring. They save 25 per cent, of seed necessaiy to use by putting every seed exactly where it should be. They surely multiply and add bushels to the produce of the field. Grain is not so liable to riist as when sown broadcsist. It secures the same advantages for spring as winter grains. In order to obtain good crops be sjire and get a good drill.

Being perfectly balanced, their is no weight on the horses' necks. It is the lightest draft self-raker in tlie market, has no side draft, and is very dural)le. Those requiring two single machines will find their wants fully supplied with a Sprague Mower and a Biinliok Reaper. Johnston's Self-Rake Reaper. (See Fig. 54.) This Reaper is strongly ard durably built. The best materials are used in its construction. * Its machinery is compact. 'Hie finger-bar is a combination of wood and iron. The rake revolves round an axis close to the driving wheel, so placed as to be entirely under the control of the driver without stopping the team. It cuts and delivei's tangled or lodged gi'ain rapidly, with little or no side draught. This reaper has been in successful operation for six years. Its many jioints of excellence have won for it during that time a multitude of friends, ami a jiosition never beff)re attained by any harvester in so short a time. For the first two or three years it wan comparatively little known ; but during the past three seasons it was widely introduced throughout the pi-incipal wheat-growing sections of the land, and gained a p<'pii^arity vnpiectdented in the h'ctciy of reaping machines. * Gordon's Self-Binding Harvester. In appeartance this machine is not unlike the Marsh Harvester — the ciitting and elevating is much the same. Instead of two men binding the grain as it is cat, a very simple and ingenioiis contrivance is attached, which gives the driver perfect control of the whole machine. The gavels are easily made of anj^ rcfiiiired size. It binds any part of gavel, and as tight as desired. . , . ;. . . , Binding is done with No. 20 wire.

A Combined Mower and Reaper, to be siicceHsful, must wnik por- foctly in wet or dry weather, wlietlier on rough, smontli, hard or soft ground, hillside or level, in all kinds asid conditions of grain and gi-ass, cuttir ^ high or low. The Kirby works successfully under any of the above conditions. The Kirby Mower. The main parts of the Kir'y Slower are, a strong cast-iron frame, which cannot shrink or swell, on wliich the gearing is carried ; a finger- bar of wrought-iron, such as to secure perfect sjtilfness and strength, and a knife or cutting-bar of steel. The driver sits, with perfect safety, on a spring seat, at left side of driving wheel, having the team and cutting apparatus immediately under his eye. Tho frame and inner end of the finger-bar are balanced and raised by tho weiglit of the driver alone ; a slight lifting by the right foot in the stinnij) being all tliat is necessary to effect this. By a lever at the right hand the outer end of the bar is easily raised. In the Kirby Mower the finger-bar has no joint whatever, it is always straight, and, therefore, the knives and cutting gear are always in line, and work freely and smoothly. But tho independent action (joint) which every ni(jwer nnist have to allow it to pass flexibly and easily over elevaticms and obstructions is in the frame of the Kirby Mower, or rather in connection between tlie frame and tho drive-wlicel, and this joint answers the puri)osc etioctually and economically. A light, convenient reel is sent out with each machine, that is of the greatest advantage in mowing. Wlien properly managed it never fails to give satisfaction.

Tlio Kirby Coiii1>iTieil can lie cliangdl from a roaiier to a mower in a few minutes. The reaper lia.s one drivo-wlieel and a grain wheel, which are the only bearing jicniits on the ground. Between these the frame, platfonn* reel and cutting apparatu.s are carried without sagging or binding in the least. Examine the Kirby well, and you Avill find points of sui)eriority over all other couibined machines. The knives never bind, but always W(jrk freely and with little noise. It runs veiy light, there being no side draught. It can be adjiisted to cut at any height from 2 to 18 inches, either in mowing or reainng. The reel (used in nioAver for timothy, and in liand rake reaper) can be adjusted for any height of grain with(jut changing the length of the belt. You cannot strain the machine any more than a cart or waggon. You can work it on side-l''l!s where an empty himber waggon W(.)uld turn over. Any ordinary gateway will allow it to pass. Tlio driver can at the same time Match his team and cutting ap- paratus Avithout k)oking back, in either reajiing or mowing, and cannot be thrown in front of the ciitter bar. The Self-Rake is either "Positive" or "Controllable" at the will of the driver, withoiit stop or change, enabling himtodouV)le or "caiTy" the bundle in thin spots, or around corners.

G. - fOtf^Oj This Machine can be attached to any grindstone, whothti' large or small. It is easily adjusted, does excellent work, is easily operated, and very durable. By it, the knife is held finnly to the stone, and the bevel sustained alike on every section, so that the knives on the entire cntter-bar are uniforiuly and readily ground. AVhen one side of knives are ground set it on the other end of frame. One man can both gi'ind and turn without reciuiring to use a foot treadle. It is adjiistable to fit any size of cutter bar or knife by means of set screws, which hold it firmly and are oidy reqiiired to be used when knife is finished, and for putting it in. One man with it can grind much (juicker and better tlian two can without it. FARjf Grindstones. Tlie above cut (Fig. 58) represents the Farm grindstone most gener- ally sold. It is hung on rollers and ready for use. An attachment for working by foot is easily attached. I also supply the stones and fixtures separately. Family Grindstone.

C - I c 4 ^ n> By the use of tlii? n:aoiune tlio farmer is enabled (in ordinarj' liay- ing woathei') to propei-ly cure the gra.S3 ami get it into the barn on tlie same day, in good condition, thereby not only cUccting a gi'cat saving of labor, but avoiding changes of weather. The Tedder -will pay for itself in tedding fifty tons of hay. The action of the forks is .such as to leave the grass lightly turneil up, and in the best condition for the admission of the iiir and the sun's rays. The draft of this Tedder is light and easy for one horse. A boy who can drive a horse can operate it, and turn and spread an acre every twenty minutes. By means of a lever, convenient to the driver, the forks can be raisetl or lowereil to any desired height. In this Hay Tedder, the separating and distributing of the gi-ass is done by means of a fast backward motion, which throws the hay ui) behind the machine. It has been thoroughly tested, and farmers who have seen these machines at work in the hay field will testify to their successful opera- tion where the horse rake can be used. HORSE HAY RAKES. Fio. UO. — The Ithaca Wheel Rake. r> . , i ..^ The Ithaca Wheel Rake is made strong and durable, and of the best materials. It has 20 teeth, which are spring-steel, oil-tempered. The manner in which the teeth are fasteneil, and the application of the pressure and staple-bar, are not suritassed. fi.S 52 !! The loaded rake is easily discharged, ami witli(nit labor, by a foot treadle and a hand lever, which is pnlled towards the operator while sitting on the seat. The teeth are held firmly to the surface, when necessary, by apply- ing the foot to the same lever, leaving both hands for driving. Each tooth is independent ; and the rake, having a movable head, accommodates itself to any surface, either smooth, rough, or stony. It is successfully used for spreading manure, b\mching hay in the winrow, raking corn-stalks, pea-vines, Aveeds, swainp-grass, and it is effectual in straightening U]* lodged gi-ass, so that the mowing machuie will cut it closely. This rake has paid for itself in one season, in raking stubble alone. The tooth frame may be raised or lowered by a single bolt, any required distance from the ground. It does not thresh the grain nor collect dirt. In all respects it has proved to be a i-eally lirst-class hay and stubble rake. An attachment for sowing phaster, and all fertilizers of a dusty nature, is sujiplied with this rako (and is also very eflicient), as repre- sented by Fig. 48. Taylou'.s Sulky Hay Rake. Tliis Rake is mounted on wheels, and in s< mo respects resembles the Ithaca AMieel Rake. The principal ditl'erence is in the shai)e of the teeth and a spring being placed over each tooth. In those respects it is l)y some considered preferable to the Ithaca. e- Fig. 61.— Sulky Wood Hokse Rake. C - / 0(# /^^ The teeth are made of wood and have an entirely independent action. In raking grain stubble it does not thi'esh the grain. The operator is seated, and by means of a hand lever the load is easily discharged. It rakes heavy equally as well as light hay or stubble. The teeth are strong and dui-able. e-i 53 Fig. 02. — Revolving Horse Hay Rake. Tliis Rake ia made of the first quality tluibcr in a very substantial manner, with square teetli sliarp- ened at the points. This is the best and simplest 1 pattern of revolving rakes ; but I would recommend tlie wheel rakes to those who can afford it, and who iking to do to justify the expenditure.

Of the many kinds of Horse Forks before the public, none has been foiuid to compare with this st^le in all kinds and conditions of hay and grain. The following are a few of its advantages : — It is made entirely of wrought iron, which makes it very durable. It ia very simple in construction, and not liable to get out of order ; in fact, altliough I have sold large numbers, I have not heard of a single com- plaint. It does not take up much space, and is very easily operated. Having two prongs, one at each side, it is per- fectly sqiuire in its ascent. When seen for the fii-st time veiy few persons can be found who can tell what it is intended for ; but, as seeing is believing, when they behold it at work all their objections are instantly overcome. It will take more hay in a single forkful than any horse can elevate over single tackle blocks, and two horses have taken a ton at one draught. Pulleys aind R(jpe supiilied. .1 54 THRESHING MACHINES. FXO. G4. — I.MPKOVED TUKKSUEK AND SeI'ARATOI!. In' the constniction of this machine no puins or expense have l)eon sj^xred^to meet the wants of the farmers. Those acipuiinted with the machine will ohservc some changes on those to be sent out in future that will add ct-naiderably to tlic conve- nience of tlireshers. The following are some of the points claimed for this machine : — The frame is made heavier and more thoroughly liraced ; steel Bhafting is used in many 2)arts. It will thresh as clean, lit for market, as much graii>, in as quick time, and do it as well as any other. There is no other iiiiichine known that will on the sieves at pleasure, so as to adajit it t(j the different kinds of grain and seed. The elevators give better satibr-votiou than any others yet produced. Iron pulleys are used, the fi- j on cylinder being bound with leather to prevent the belt slipping ; should any, however, prefe" wooden pulleys, they will be put on. I furnish it with Eyer's Patent Sieve in it, without extra charge. Vibrator Thkeshixo Machine. The constructi(jn and principle of this Thresher difl'trs from all others in the fcjllowing : — No grain belt or canvas apron is iiscd. The separator is made in the form of a long hnx, oi)en at ',lie back end, and sufliciently roimiy to permit the straw to pass thi-iiugh without obstruct i<. in or packing. 55 ; I a Tlio lower part of the separator is made in two sections, oacli about six inches deep.

The threslier takes up but little room on the bam floor, and is easily moved about, being placed on wheels.

The advantages of bruising oats, &c. , before giving them to horses and cattle are too well known to need any notice here. Suffice it to say, that with horses in their i>rime their is a saving of 25 per cent, by feeding tliom with oats crushed by these mills ; Avith horses too young or too old to masticate properly, the saving is considerably more.

Tliey j)erforra the operation of grass-cntting on any ground that can he well mctwn with a scythe, cut it evenly, and leave the sward in a nuicli improved condition. The jilan of construction has the following advantages : the machine v.ill cut as well when turniuL,' a short corner as when pushed straii^ht forward. The tendency of the gearing is to lift tiie lower knife, (thus causing it to pass lightly over uneven groiuid,) instead of pressing it down. The machine being single geared, tlw friction and niunber of j)arts is reduced one half. The cut grass is thrown beliiml tlu: cutters, instead of forwar lireak or get oiit'of order, and render tiio machine very ilurable.
