IE MERITS OF THIS«sa Plow over others, for the enlti ration of both Cot- . ton and Corn are many, but I shall mentidd only its leading meritp ; With four wings, two small and two large, it can bo converted into Seven different Plows, all of"which are very necessary for the cultivation - of dif- ferentorops. And another very important feature is durability. A -Plow completed will last a man from two to five years, accord ing to the soil he cultivates, and will only cost about Three Dollars to put it up. An Agenoy will soon be established in Rome, and then planter! will be invited to call and sec for themselves. Address, B. F. REYNOLDS, ’ marSOtritf. Kingston, Oa. pirofessioirai Cqlrd?. a. n. scott.
