As was stated last weolc, we visited
the 8th t tmuul fair of Oregon- Agri
cultural Society .nt Salem. Taking
all things into account it was the
mpst successful of any cxhiiiirious

plows, headirs, threshers, mio.-
wheels, etc., etc., of Oregon moan
fncture.va Oregon Invention. There
"as never b, fore seen such decided
indications of the tendency of Oregon
. t the greatness -f an Empire, as at
this part of the fair. And wc were i
very greatly gratified with the results J
vf the show. Oilmen inventions and
Oregon manufactures will beat the
world. Oregon bred hor-cs will
Vent the world as we'd, i:i a f.-w years.
" Oregon r.gair.Et the World," sdodi
j.lwnysbeour motto.
The gang jdow C!i tlh age, invented
ond made by Wm. Mason, cf Inde
pendence, Polk county, took the first
j riz3. We shall not quarrel about
that, but we have cur own opinions
respecting the matter of plows. Mr.
Mason has a most (.cclknt plow. It
is a good plow. And the aerig,
druft to pn!i it through light, div
ftubble, is but 4C0 lbs The li g'.est
q draft in the snmo sell, on this pbw,
4 i idioated by the dynamometer, was
SOOlbs. This plow costs ih- f .rtner
some more than t!i3 Wei foot gang
plow, invented and made by J. W.
Lewis, of this ehv, or the T'f l i."it'-
plow, invented iu Illinois, and made
at Oregon city by Lewis;- W Iga
r.iot, and does no belter wctk, as w
can see.
HI,. s.,.T n.t.n t ,.f rrnr.rr ntnwc
was awarded to Lwis and Wdg -
.,
mot, on the Pfed. 1 ne avera-.'e
draft on tins now, as indicate; by
the dynamometer, was OO lbs high-
o ti
est Strain 400 lbs r.Vemge. J he
test on the We I foot was vol a per
1 IC Sflimu I . ' 1 1
feet on", owir" to jncctnpU-te ar-
ratements. Thr highest strain rep
resented was 0Q0 los ; UlO averatre

Orcqonlan savs :
Of single plow., the Pfiil sulkey
made by Leu is and Woignmot, to. k

work and tlemonsirnt. d its ability to
do cood plow ir.jr in imeveii ground ;
but the Committee thought it too
complicated, and there fore too liable
o get out e,f repair. It, is ore to
0Ir. Lewi, to say that he bad rot bad
lime to perfect the plow- as heintends
to have it. It is unlike id! ot her
gang", in beieg SO cons'rncted ns to
jipc'ont of the ground either point
rr heel first, and this makes it pecu
liarly adapted to plowing thrrngh
low or high places. In this respect
Ihe Committee also expressed the
opinion that the Pfeil gang was su-
nrrior to the Challenge, w hieh ,o.-k
li e fust premium. The Ckal'enge
plows a verv even furrow, turns it
over nicelv, and ii'es t.long as stead-
iJy as a spring bmrgy on a snmnth
pavement.' The driver Is nothing

of Agriculture, fur the year 180. and
may be found on page 210 oj that re

"The Gang Plow- made by J. C. Pfeil,
Arenzviiie, Cas county Illinois, is received
w ith no little favor in lhe west. Almost in
credible stories are told of its excellence
and etliciency in plowing the prairie fields
of Illinois and other States.
The depth of the fin row is regulated by
the crank-axle, which is so arranged that
the ploughs can be driven deeper or shal
lower ut the pleasure of the driver, ivhen the
team is moving.bv means of the lever.
We also manufacture sulkey plows for
smi II boys, or infirm person who are unable
to manage a team of ihive or four horses.
This gang or sulkey plow, w di cut a fur
row from ! to 1" inches deep
"The committee who tested the draught
fif this jdow with a dynaniomi ter statr, that
it ran lighter by 14o pounds, than other plow
when running at t he sain..- depth, and held
by the plowman w hile on foot."

more trork than two men can do with
iralimz Plows, and the sun, e amount
of team. Hence, it will be neen that
it will more than pay for itself in one
season's plowing.
