adapted particularly to our local loal circumstances THE PLOW as it loc is is good enough but let it be remembered according to the advancement van cement of mech mechanical anical inventions now that boneman one man can plow with more than one plow and drive more than one span of or horses or one yoke of cattle and the common use of the single plow can no lonen lener ion lon longer ioner er be considered good economy it is farmers only who are acquainted quain ted with the purpose and design of CULTIVATORS 1 which are to reduce the plowed ground to powder approximately to the desired depth

they take fake too tool much horse flesh according accordia to their effect to good farming the cultivator is just as nece neco necessary aary as the plow the plowing being only pre preparatory to cultivating it is pro probable bait balt le that a good deal of half way farming is to be attributed fo to the want of good cultivators and that the common harrow has been used instead of me the cultivator to only smoothen the surface of the land ape ahe rhe the pulverizing process can be done effectively and at the same time with proportionately easy draft bya by byn a common shaped harro

of the tile farming laud land of utah has ever been fertilized with animal manure by the adoption of the hi header moler an ad improvement in this direction would be accomplish ed let it be remembered that in all these mountain regions where irrigation is necessary and and where the soil is almost without humus a continued process of expansion and contraction is going on bythe by the effect of

the reflection that it was not altogether the heat of the sun that produced prostration prostrate after much research be lie discovered that the injury came from the chemical my ray and not from the heat beat heated edray ray he was guided to this by observing the fact that a photograph could not be taken through a hollow glass Ae cordingly accordingly lie he lined his hat with two linings gs one of orange yellow to arrest the chemical ray 1 and d one of green to arrest the heated beate i ray thus prepared he went where the rays or por the sun were most int intense eile elle with impunity in
