Stiff clays and hard-pans are made loose and [friable by these exposures. The more roughand broken they are left by the plow the better.

Thev freeze and _ In the Fall, the lands that are most benefited by plowing, are generally in the best condition for the operation. In the Spring they are often so wet that they cannot be plowed until May or June. Now they 'are dry, and will crumble as they are turned over. But all heavy loams lying flat, and clays, are greatly benefited by Fall plowing. The teams are generally in the best condi- tion for plowing at this season. They have. had good pasturage though the Summer, and, as a rule, have less to do than in the Winter and Spring. It puts the Spring work very much ahead to have all the green sward turn- ed over in the Fall. However much of this may be done, the teams will have enough to do in the Spring, in carting manure, cross-plowing, harrowing, and getting ready for sowing and planting. All lands, except light loams and sandy soils, are benefited by Fall plowing, unless they are exposed to washing. Steep side hills should never be plowed in the Fall, unless you sow them immediately with grain or grass seed, to furnish roots lorholding the soil in place.

Useful and practical information appertaining to the interests of millwights and mill-owners l will be found published in the Scientific flmerican, which information they cannot possibly obtain frem any other source. To this class the paper is specially recommended. TO THE PLANTER AND FARMER ’ Subjects in which planters and farmers are in- terested willbe found dismissed in the Scientific .a’merira-n; most of the improvements in agricul- tural implements being illustrated in its columns. TO THE MAN-OF-LEISURE AND THE MAN-L F- SCIENCE! Individuals of both these classes cannot fail to be interested in the {Scientific fluzerican, which contains the latest intelligence on all subjects appertaining to the arts and science, both practi-’ cal and theoretical ; all the latest. discoveries and l phenomena, which come to our knowledge being-J on rlxr rnnnnflnfl 4 [spam :-- , -__..-_‘-v vv JAIU‘ Lt; none but original engravings, and those of the first class in the art, drawn and engraved by ex- perienced persons under their own supervision. TO THE CIIEMIST AND ARCHITECT! Chemists and architects will find the Scientific flute-rican a useful journal to them. All the new discoveries in the science of c::en1istry are elimin: ated in its columns, and the interests of the archi- tect and carpenter are not. overlooked; but all the new inventions and discoveries appertaining to these pursuits are published from week to week. - â€"-â€"‘ -vnvi.’ I l The Scientific .flmerican is indispensahie to ev- ery inventor, as it not only contains illustrated descriptions of nearlyall the best inventions as they come out, but each number contains an ofu ficial list of the claims of all the patents issued from the United States Patent Office during the week previous; thus giving the correct history of the progress of inventions in this country. We ere also receiving, every week, the best scientific journals of Great Britain, France and Germanyi; thus placing in our possession all that is transpir- ing in mechanical science and art in those old countries. We shall continue to transfer to our columns, copies extracts from these journals, of Whatever we may deem of interest to our readers.‘ TO THE MECHANIC AND MACIIINIST! No person engaged in any of the mechanical pursuits should think of “doing Without” the Scientific flmerican. It costs but four cents per week ; every number contains from six to ten en- gravings of new machines and inventions, which cannot be found in any other publication. It. is an established rule of the publishers to inszrt. _____ , , . . . - 30,000_comns PER WEEK! Some editions have reached as high as 60,000; none less than 36,000. The extent of the circu- lation evinces the popularity of the paper; and While our readers seem satisfied with the quantity and quality of matter they get in one year’s num- ber (comprising 832 pages and costing only, $2), the publishers are determined to still improve the paper during‘the coming year. The Scientific American has the reputation, at home and abroad, of being the best weekly publi- cation devoted to mechanical and industrial pur- suiw now published, and the publishers are deter- mined (if labor and enterprise will do it) to keep up the reputation they have earned dUring the FIFTEEN YFARS they have been connected; with its publication.
