FLOWING IS HARD on HORSES
rev Teams That Are Not Doing Ten
to Thirty Per Cent Of U~nneces-
sary Work In FIeIds.
by E. W. HAMILTON.)

VI - W. Alf01lAlON.J
Flowing Is at best the hardest work
9ur farm horses have to perform. Few
Nv teams are not doing 10 to 30 per
INT OF unnecessary work. The writ.
Eer has seen plows which he believed
were pulling so per cent harder than
they should.
We are told that about SO per cent
OF the draft Of a plow is due to the
cutting Of the furrow slice. The con.
dition of the cutting edge must then
be Of first importance. Expert blow.
men recognize this and in competi.
tons file their shares to knife edges.
One authority claims that an old
share resharpened has shown SO per
cent heavier draft than a new share.
Again, engine plows of the same make
and size have under the same condi.
tons showed 45 per cent difference in
draft in favor Of the new freshly filed
shares over resharpened shares in or
binary condition. 1t will certainly nav
to keep the pillow shares sharp and in
proper form.
The set and adjustment Of a pillow
is almost as much to do with the
draft as condition of the share. A
riding pillow with zeal furrow wheel
should pull little or no harder than a
walking plow or plows of the same
widths. Yet how many do It? About
30 per cent Of the draft of q walking
pillow is due to the friction of the pillow
on the bottom and side Of the fur.

Is eliminated by carrying the weight

side cannot touch the side furrow
The wheel is also set down so the
heel of Landslide is raised one halt to

row. When SO set the pillow bottom
will sink into the ground and hang
there. When pillow bottoms float" In
the frame none Of the bottom and
side pressure is removed and the draft
of the bottoms is the same as that Of
the walking plows to which must b.
added that due to weight of pillow

How big an income should a young

in various departments Of the Sunday
