PREMIUM HARD CORN PLANTER. THE public are invited to examinethis novel and valuable Machine, which is now being exhibited in almost all parts of .the country. The cheapness, simplicity and ingenuity of its construction, together with the wonderful accuracy and dispatch with which it executes 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 the work of plantiiig com.

It has been rested the past season bv numerous farmers in most of the,States, who unite in giving it their decided preference over all other Planters ever introduced into tho coun try. It has been presented at several Agricultural Fnirs, and always without exception', received the highest premium.
