Agricultural implements; Horticulture; Agricultural machinery; Horticultural machinery. Fig. "No. 106.—Improved Boring Ma- chine.—This Machine is simple in its construction and operation ; it is readily at- tached to the top of the timber, when the workman sits himself across it, operating the auger by turning the two cranks, one with each hand, and readily performs quad- ruple the amount of work, more perfectly with much more ease, avoiding entirely the wrenching and more laborious operation of turning the Common Auger. By ship- ping a gear, and the same motion of the cranks, the auger is quickly drawn out, leaving the hole clear of chips. They are neatly finished, light and portable, and but 2 feet 3 inches long, and 2 feet high. A set of 3 Augers is fitted to each Machine, comprising 1, 1£ and 2 inches, 18 qrs. Extra augers, and other sizes furnished to order. For transportation they are packed, 6, with the augers, in a box 24- feet square. and.
