was on the same principle as the one
above described, being used for loosen
ing the hard subsoil. The point was
of steel: the rest of the pillow of bars of
wrought iron half an inch thick and
two and half inches wide. One end of
each was welded on the steel which
forms the point, with space of three
fourths of an inch between for the
beam. A bolt ten inches from the
point was the place from which the
beam drew, and serving as pivot for
allowing it to play up and down or to
rise or fall automatically, according to
the depth of the ditch. This is shown
by the dotted lines. One of these p.ows
may be made for ten dollars.
M Du Bois gave us some additional
particulars of its construction at the
time, eight years ago. The bar of
steel, forming the point, and which
was nearly square, weighed about two
pounds. on which the side bars were
welded at a slant They were about
four feet long, and the wooden handles
were bolted to them. making eight feet
from the steel point to the ends OF the
handles. These gave a sufficient lever

An Easier and Cheaper Method Than
Digging by Hand.

An Easier and Cheaper Method Than
Digging by Hand.
In answer to inquiry of the owner of
a moderate farm for some easier and
cheaper way for digging bitches than
doing the work by hand, we may. says
the Country Gentleman, give the state
ment OF our own experience with the
ditching pillow. when the snbsoil was so
hard as TO REQUIRE the use of the pick
FOR loosening il before shoveling out
the loosened earth. Where the soil is
so soft that It may be freely spaded to
depth of three or four feet, the ditch
ing pillow would be OF no use; and
where the subsoil is entirely free from
stone and the land is quite extensive,
one of the large and costly machines
used at the West would doubtless, be
more profitable.
We give a figure and description of a
ditching pillow many years ago, with
which we cut several miles of ditch
through hard subsoil at less than half
the expense of hiring all the work
done by hand. The line of the ditch
was first laid out, and furrow was run
with common pillow aud repeated two
or three times. as a beginning, and to
reduce the whole labor. This was then
followed with the ditching pillow, which
was similar to common subsoil plow,
