Our Blenheim agent sends ua the following clipping from » Marlborough paper, bet does not give name or da.be :—": — " Ab the trial ploughing of the Dux Plough on Saturday afternoon last there were a goodly number of farmers and others preseut. Tho first trill made was in » loose stubble paddock, when- it showed excellent work. It was then tried in a hard stiff grass paddock, where, if anything, it did better work than iv the stubble. A good deal of criticism took place as to its merits and demerits, but the general opinion arrived at was ifoat ib was a vary useful aud cheap implement. At the conclusion oi the trial the plough was bought by Mr A. Gifford, of Spring Creek." ELICITED GREAT PRAISE. On the 2ad » trial was held at Warepa (Mr A.

I bave never handled ft plough iv my life before, but the plough seems to teach me what to do. I simply drive the horses, aact the plough does the rest. William Scott. IMPORTANT NOTE. SEE EXHIBIT ATVINVERGARGILL WINTER SHOW. Farmers who have made up their minds to buy at the Dunedin Winter Show may probably get left. It's not likely that a solitary Treble Furrow will remain unsold, although we will try and hold one back for Show purposes. Single snd Double Farrows will bo exhibited in any case, bat as the committee exit down all applications for ep&ca to the lowest possible limit, if we are sold out we shall nofe ihow Treble Farrows, to give more room for injpeot* ing the balance of our exhibit.
