In terracing a field, the upper ter
rnce should always be built first. If a
lower terrace is built first and there
Is not time to build the. upper before
a rain comes, then the lower will be
badly washed and broken by the large
volume of water drained from all the
land above. In building the terrace
backfurrow strip about four burrows
wide is first thrown up. The steel ter
racer or V drag drawn by four horses
Is then used to move the dirt toward
the center of the strip and as high as
possible. The plowing is then contin-
ued and the best results are obtained
where each round with the plow Is fol-
lowed with the V drag. The short
wing of the V drag Is sometimes hing
ed so that the distance the dirt is
moved can be varied as the terrace
grows wider. For the best results the
weight of two men is required on the
drug. They can shift their weight so
as to raise or lower the end of the
short wing as desired. The process
of plowing and dragging is continued
until the terrace is Is to 20 feet wide.
If the terrace is not high enough after
1t has settled, rs found by testing the
height in a number of places with a
level, the plowing and dragging should
be repeated.
Use Of Pow Alone.
Terraces are sometimes built with a
plow alone. Several plowings are re-
