A gentleman who Is a successful
farmer, recently said to US: "One fall
I started to turn big field with an
oliver plow, and after the work had
been partly done, something happened
that had to quit for the time being.
Later on the balance Of the field was
plowed up with ordinary plows. The
field was planted in cotton and when
the crop came up anyone could see the
difference in the crop. Where the Oh
liver had gotten its work In the crop
was decidedly the best, and another
thing the grass was not so bad on that
part Of the field as ii was where Ii was
lust plowed.'" The oliver Is a little
higher in price than other turn plows.
but they are a great deal better and
will make good the difference In cost
