GANG PL0CGns.. .-., 80.
Gang ploughs arc not well adapted to small
farms With limited capita1. To draw them
requires four good horscs or other teams and
IN expert driver, whereas two horses csn be
handled by boy or ordinary hand. We have
vet to sec their economy even on large far1ns
1t tie State Fair the display OF these ploughs
was large and attracted no small attention,
md It would appear they are all the rage lust
now. sfr. S. can doubtless do better With bis
