from yielding when struck by the

When the brush is dry the land
is sometimes cleared by burning it

The rail is dragged over the

If the tract is covered with sage
brush it must be cleared off before
any blowing or levelling can be
done, says the Field and Farm,
Most of the settlers clear such land
by hand, cutting down the brush
with an ordinary mattock and pill
ing and burning it. The cutting
and piling is generally done during
the day and the burning at night.
One man can clear an acre in two
days, cutting in one day as much as
he can pile and burn the next.

can be cut easily few inches be-
