3 Guest, John, Bedford —Inventor and Manufacturer.Three-row steerage drill on the flat, or two rows on the

ridge, for turnips or mangel-wurzel, with manure.

Eight-row cup drill, for corn and seed, with self-actingbox, and independent steerage, by which the drill-man isenabled to steer it perfectly straight, independently of thehorses, and thus to facilitate the use of the horse-hoebetween the rows.

4 Dean, Thomas, Wishaw , Scotland —Inventor.Cutlery apparatus attached to a tile and pipe machine,

for forming overlaps in tiles and pipes as they comethrough the die; intended to prevent the tiles or pipesfrom sinking in soft lands, and to keep them in one con-tinuous line, so as to supersede collars. Two men and aboy can cut and make an average of 4,000 daily. The onepipe is cut out of the other, so that the overlaps are verycomplete in the fitting. The machine will be worked toexhibit the process.
