IMPORTANT TO FARMERS!

C. DANA'S PREMIUM HAND CORN PLANTER. THE public nro invited to examine this novel and vulunble Machine, which is now being exhibited in almost all parts of tho country. The cheapness, simplicity and ingenuity of its construction, together with the wonderful accuracy and dispatch with which itexocutes its work on every variety of soil, area sufficient guarantee that this Machine will soon take the place of both the Horse Planter and Hoe in tne work of planting corn.

It has been tested the past season by numerous fanners in most of the States, who unite in giving it their decided preference over all other Planters ever introduced into the coun try. It has been presented at several Agricu Itural Fairs, and always without exception, received the highest premium.
