"A workraim is kuown .by his tools."
A farmer is ' a workman'and the in-
ference is plain enough. The criterion
consists both in the Selection of the
tools and in the condition in which
they are kept. We live in a mechan-
ical age; in which hand -work, has be-
come obsolete, and, without machinery,
labor is only:partly productive. With-
out machinery to help him, a farmer
cannot successfully compete with other
industries vthich are 1c:carried on by
means of medhanical lappliances, nor
with those of his brother farmera who
ase machinery. Already eastern farm-
ers feel the irksome competition of
cheap produets raised on large Western
farms by the use of sulky plows, sulky
cultivators, seed -sowers, and harvesters.
And the Western farmees are sorely be-
set because 6f the cheap wheat grown
on the vast bonanza, farms of the North-
west, where farm rnechines may be
seen marshalled in array with military
precision, and where division of labor
in their use is made available to the
largest extent. Division of labor is one
of those great industrial levers which
are need to move the sooial- world, and
a bare machine is merely an example
of the dividing et' the farm labor
ameng the hundreds of arti-
sans who mine the ore, smelt the iron,
fashion it into plough -shares, and fit it
into the completed plow. All these
men work for and with the farmer to
help him plow and plant and reap and
carry his harvests to market. Con-
sidered in this light, the subject of farm
machinery may well be of the greatest
interest to a farmers, and in considering
it we may find it useful first to take a
cursory view of what mechanics are do-
ing to provide machinery for the farmer,
the profit of mine machinery, and how
it should be used.
The list of farm machinery provided
by the brains and hands of inventors -for
farmers' use is a long one, if we should
enumerate the whole. Of plows alone
we have a vast array, but of this a large
portion has become obsolete. It is a
drawback to the great, ,adva.ntages we
enjey that new improvements are con-
tinually being made, end the plow of
last year is displa,ced by one of the
present. But every good thing has its
dark side, end the IUBOi0118 peach, even,
has its large 'stone withih it which we
must throw way. Still, we must con -
eider if it is p?;-afitable to keep an old
tool at work rather than cast it aside
and purchase a new aad better one.
UK:rally this is not profitable, and the
saving in labor and the better work one
with a new and improved tool may pay
several times over in one season for its
cost and the loss on the discarded one.
The chief inapt-even:rent in plows at the
present tirne is in the use of an exceed-
ingly hard metal, compared with which
hard steel is soft. Shares made of this
hard iron wear but very little, and re-
tain so smooth a surface and so bright
a polish. as to move freely in the most
adhesive soil. This reduces labor and
improves the work, and both of these
are important helps. But the corning
improvement in plowiae is to displace
the plow and use a pinverizer. The
attontion of agricultural inventors has
long been turned to this object, and
ers, pulverizers, aad soil working
machines of many kinds have been de-
vised and tried and failed. The most
recent and most prortheing machine is a
screw pulverizer, whigh, as it passes
over a breadth" of several feet of soil,
breaks and turns it and reduces it to a
mellow condition. This machine pro-
mises to work ten acres a day with four
horses and one rn an, w hialaif it is realized,
will certainly revolutionize the work of
plowing. As regards 'harrows it may
well be supposed that before long these
clumsy tools will be dispensed with, and
the soil will be prepared and the seed.
sown and covered at one operation.
Rat until then we may well be satisfied
with the great improvements made in
these implements. The object of the
harrow is to pulverize and mix the soil.
To do this in the beat manner We re-
quire an implement that will work the
surface and not tear the manure, and
the buried sods and trash from below
the surface and leave it on the top to
interfere with, the growing crops and
with harvesting them. This objeot is
attained by the use of teeth which slope
backward and pass over these obstruc-
tions, burying them atilt deeper in the
soil and covering them with fresh mel-
low earth: Another newly introduced
implement which is at once plow and
karrow is the disk hOrow. It is fur-
nished with a number of sharp steel
disks, naounted on 4xles which are
plaeecl diagonally to t e line of draft.
As these wheels are dr wh through the
soil and rotate they Oat narrow slices
of earth and throw theeu over into fur-
rows, leaving the surfaee precisely as if
it had been plowed with a number of
small plows, yet penetrating several
inches. The soil is then in excellent
condition for the seed. Another har-
row is a bar provided with. steel scrap-
ers, which cut into the soil and turn
furrows with the same effect as the disk
harrow. Both ,of these implements are
made to carry the driter. For sowiug
and planting we have Corn planters ancl
seed drills of all kinds which put the
seed where it will do tho most good,
covering it properly at the same time.
Nor is the field work alone provided
for; the garden has been considered by
these busy brain workers, the inventors.
We have garden Beet sowers, • hand
plows and land cult eters of many
kinds, which completely displace the
hoe and the rake, and small aue-horse
plows which cast out ,he spade. For
harvesting we have the self -binders
which cut the grain, -eke it, gather it
into sheaves and bind t with twine at
the rate of 20 acres a day. But the
half of it cannot be told, and we must
hasten to consider what profit there is
in the use of farm a.chinery. This
ought to "go without 1 saying," for it
stands to reason that anything which
eases and hastens 1 bor should be
profitable to use. But the cost 1 This,
of course, is the point to be considered.
Now, as a rill° it may be aaid that any
first-class farm tool of whatever kind
that can be used only 10 days in the
year will pay for itself in 5 years, and
vary often less than that. At the same
time it may be said, if it is used as it
should be and is well taken care of
when not in. use, it mitY be in good re-
pair at the end of 20 years. We may
give a case in point: A farmer had 20
acres of heavy grass to cut, and men
claimed $2.50 a day. The farmer pur-
chased a mower for $96, and in four
days had his hay cut without any other
outlay. He thus earned $50, or more
than half the cost of !the mower, in
yeszeralaa=211•1_,
those fonx days. At the rate of _ $E5
per day he would have earned (Me -
fifth of t e'cost of the =Aver in 12
days. 4 corn planter will drop and
cover 8 ores in one day, and at a oast
of $40 *1 pay for itself in'planting les
than 30 acres. A wheat drill will so
8 acres and. will earn $4 in a day, as
there is no harrowing needed after it.
Some smaller machines, suoh as fodder
cutters, costing $10 to $30 each, Wi 1 -
always pay for themselves in one ee
son by the saving of fodder alone an
allowing for the time used in operator
it.
But the profit in farm machiner
consists very nanch in the right use f
it. It a 1 requires skill in the use an
