HANDY IMPLEMENT FOR FARM One-Horse Dump Cart Is Not Hard to Construct and Material Costs Comparatively Com-paratively Little. The cart is one of the handiest tools I have on the farm, writes an Ohio man in the Practical Parmer. I made the bed 28 inches wide, 10 inches high and 42 inches long. I used 10-inch strap hinges to hinge bed on to back end of shafts. Drilled the holes larger and bolted shafts on. The two blocks were made of wood 10 inches long and 3 inches wide, bolted on to the shafts so as to turn round when bed is down and cf.tcb. the end of the bed in front. I used for wheels a pair of drill wheels three feet high. This cart I use every day to haul manure from ten cows. This bed will hold all of it, and makes a good one-horse one-horse load. It is handy for hauling and dumping anything that one horse pi N. END GATE kin..;: --'"' One-Horse Dump-Cart. can pull. My cow stable is so close behind be-hind the cows that I cannot get a manure ma-nure spreader in, so I had to invent this cart. It is not hard to construct, and is not expensive to make.
