THE EARL OF DUCIE'S IRON WORKS, 

ULEY, GLOUCESTERSHIRE.

These works have been established with a view of manufacturing machinery, and introducing such improvements as may be applicable for the better cultivation of land.

No expense has been spared in establishing the Works; the intention being the production of machinery, manufactured in the most workmanlike manner, calculated, as well for the uses to which it is intended to be applied, as for durability and strength.

It is needless to state, that in order duly to appreciate the merits and value of agricultural machines, they should be worked by persons who understand their use and management; and that they should be taken proper care of.

And it is highly necessary that attention should be paid to cleaning and oiling the machines, both before setting to work, and on laying them by after use and that they should be kept in the dry, and occasionally painted, in order to their working with ease, and to preserve them from rust and decay.

HANNUIC'S PATENT GOVERNOR, for regulating the speed of water wheels and steam engines; it is a great economizer of power, always regulating it to the quantity of work performed. It can be seen in operation at the Uley Iron Works.

No. 12.-A SET OF IMPROVED SCREW SPANNERS OR WRENCHES.

This improvement in screw wrenches or spanners consists in the application of an adjustable jaw, opening at the end instead of the side of the handle or lever, by which arrangement it may be more readily used in confined situations. It will be found a very useful tool to the farmer in his machinery or implements, there being generally so many different sized nuts about them. The easy manner of adjustment is a sufficient recommendation. They are made of four sizes.
