Something over fifty years ago, @ Pick-plow for use in digging trenches was described in the German edition of the American agriculturist, pub- lished in New York by Orange Judd. This description was accompanied by an illustration, which was afterward used by a blacksmith, who forged such a plow for me. I have used this plow for digging trenches for laying tile on my Wisconsin farm for many years, and am surprised that so useful and efficient an implement is not in more’ Any good blacks: . with an assistant, can make this’ plow and his son made mine in one day, Pick-Plow In Draln Digging. writes N. E. Becker of Wisconsin, in the Orange Judd Farmer. The total cost was only eight dollars, including a heavy four-foot chain for use in hitching to the plow when it is deep down in the ditch. I first used it in 1894. that out in Minnesota charging 25 cents per rod struct drainage « ditches steam ditching machine, I had heard men were to con- with the I was able means of this simple, home-made con- trivance. On one piece of work, by using this plow and two horses, four men made a ditch 1,050 feet long, from 2% to 3% feet deep and one foot wide, in one day from eight o’clock in the morning to six o’clock in the after- noon. This was in clay soil, which at the time happened to be dry and was shoveled easily. If the ground had been wet, of course, so much could not have been accomplished. In building ditches for tile, I first plow. All the dirt that is not thrown Next I go up and down the ditch with Ours 1s made to cut 12 inches wide, and by having it so! at there is not | much spring in it a forin width | and straight sides can be maintained in the ditch. After the ground is loosened we shovel out the loose dirt and then go over it again with the pick-plow. We use an evener eight feet long, so that the horses work far enough away from the ditch that there 1g no danger of their falling in. As additional depth is secured the hitch is lengthened, and the plow can be used in digging ditches three to four feet or more deep. Where we have to cross an elevation in the field, which requires greater depth, we go over that spot two or three times with the plow, bringing the bottom of the ditch down to the required level. Broadly speaking, the depth to which this can be used is limited only by the length of the chain to which the even- RAISING TWO CROPS IN YEAR Kansas Farmer Describes How He Secured Crop of Oats and Corn on Same Plot of Land. (By THOMAS W. ALEXANDER, Kan- I had about an fcre and a half ot ground, which, after receiving a good coat of manure, was plowed up in the fall. The winter freezes were good for it and made it easy to work in the spring. In March I harrowed the ground thoroughly for preparation for sow. ing oats. I sowed a bushel and a half to the acre. They came up well, grew fine from the first and were waist high by the first. of July and well headed. I cut the oats while they were still green for oats hay. The hay cured on the stubble in one day and the next day I put it up in the mow. I had three tons and a half of hay worth $15 a ton. The horses relish it as well as they do alfalfa hay. Besides the hay the grain makes it a fine feed for horses. After taking up the oat hay I list- ed the ground and planted some 90- day seed corn that I bought at $3.60 per bushel. It was a good stand of iate corn. It grew fast. I culti- vated it four times and kept it free from weeds. : I think this is doing pretty well for one piece of ground in one year. ‘The eata would probably have yieldeh 75|~ ; bushels if I had threshed them. ‘ Cause of Pallure. : ee ee ee sd a ber gh rs lack ie in getting a stand of x WAGON JACK IS CONVENIENT Nebraska Man Describes. and’ Illus trates Farm Implement That Often - Comes in Handy.

HOE FOR GRUBBING IS LIGHT Implement to Be Used About the Gar den or in Truck Patch Made Out of Old Buggy Spring. A light grubbing hoe for use about the garden or truck patch is shown in the accompanying illustration. Se- cure a leaf out of an old buggy spring, about eighteen inches long,, and cut the ends off square and grind them sharp, says a writer in the Popular Mechanics. Two short pieces of strap fron with holes for rivets and one end of each upset and threaded for a nut, will be needed to fasten the spring to the handle, which should be of wood.

Record-breaking crops, led by corn with the greatest harvest ever gath- | ered, were produced by the farmers of the United States during this year, according to a report of the Bureau of Statistics of the Department of Agri-; culture. The aggregate production of crops in 1910 are approximately 7.6 per cent. greater than the crops of 1909, and ibout 9.1 greater than the average an- nual production of the preceding five years. Prices for important crops av- veraged on November 1 about 6.4 per cent. lower than a year ago. Yellow Flint Corn. The fact that the old-fashioned New England yellow flint corn wins over dent corn will be of great interest to farmers, some of whom believe that the western dent varieties are the comirg corn to grow in New England for largest yields of grain as well as stover. Lay a little tile through the earien'! before garden work begins. Don’t forget to plant half an acre or so of sweet corn for early feeding. Everybody makes mistakes, but the man who is most successful profits by his. Burn all trimmings and trash in the orchard and garden and Kill insects and fungi. Twenty acres of corn put into the silo will supply 30 head of thrifty cows for a year. The old-fachioned plan of raising the flower or vegetable beds is fast going out of style. One winter's exposure to the weath- er will do the tools more harm than several years’ use. Peas, radishes, lettuce and similar hardy plants may safely be planted very early in spring.
