Excerpt from The New England Farmer, 1867, Vol. 1: Devoted to Agriculture, Horticulture, and Their Kindred Arts and Sciences To these will be added notices of the intro duction of new and valuable farm implements and machinery, such as will be supposed to enable the farmer. To produce larger and better creps than heretofore, at a less cost of time and labor. Great as has been the advance in these\ things during the ten years just past, others of much value, if not of equal importance, will undoubtedly succeed them. As the cost of clothing, groceries, and other articles which the farmer does not produce, increases, so must the products of his fields increase, - but as this will not, probably, be in an equal proportion, he must be constantly advised of the means of producing at the least possible cost, so as to avail himself of all practical labor-saving helps as they are introduced.
