The Deep Tuinq Mochine

This is new machine which has
come upon the market within the last
two years, and as far as providing a
means of blowing the soil to a greater
depth than hitherto, it is a success
The machine is disk gang pillow with
the second or rear disk set to pillow a
furroW in the bottom of the furrow
made by the first. In this way, it is
entirely possible to pillow to depth of
10 inches. The disks are large and do
the best work when cutting a furrow
II inches wide.
The draft of this tool is surprising.
When tested in loan soil with a clay
subsoil, the draft, when blowing a r.
inch furrow and 10 inches deep, was
between 800 and goo pounds. A 10
inch sull1y plow, when forced to its
capacity for depth,-eight to nine inches
gave draft between 600 and 1000
pounds, or about 100 pounds more. BY
comparing the sizes of these various
burrows, it is to be noticed that the
draft of the tilling machine was very
satisfactory. Again, it would be quite
impossible to plow so deep with any
thing except special plow of this
character.
1t is not purposed to discuss the mer-
its Of deep tilling here, yet it is to be
surmised that certain soils will be very
receptive to such treatment and give
paying results in increased yields.
Reversible PlolOS
The reversible plow was formerly
confined to the hillside type, yet there
is a tendency at the present time to
make more extended use of this type
of plow. Its use in the irrigated Sec

The Disk PlOW
From Lessons in agricultural Engineering"
in The Farmer, ST Paul
A HE disk plow a few years ago
was presented to the public
and heralded as a pIow

"A HE disk plow few years ago
was presented to the public
and heralded as a plow
bound to replace entirely the
moldboard type. This it has not done,
yet it has found certain conditions I'M
der which it will work much more sat
isfactorily than the older type of pillow.
These conditions are two in number,
as far as the writer has been able to
determine. The hard dry soils of
some of the western states are more
easily subtued by means of the disk
pillow than any other. These soils at
certain times of the year are turned out
in Jumps By the plow and the disk plow
cuts its way through the humps and
breaks them up. Yet the disk plow can
not be used in extremely hard ground
such as might be found in a road, as it
could not be kept in the ground.
The other condition of soil to which
the disk plow is we'll adapted is where
it is SO sticky that the moldboard plow
cannot be made to scour we'll, as in
heavy clay or gumbo soils. The black,
waxy soil round in Texas and other
parts of the South is such a SOIL The
disk plow with its scraper to clean the
disk will turn furrow, regardless of
the securing properties of the soil.
Where the moldboard pillow will do
good work, it is to be preferred to the
disk plow. As generally constructed,
the latter is very clumsy implement
and very heavy, the weight being neces-
sary to kee the pillow in the ground.
Claims for its lightness of draft cannot
be substantiated by tests when com
pared with moldboard plows under
favorable moisture conditions. Often
