FARM IMPLEMENTS. 113 



one-way plough, and inverts the soil to a depth of 22 cen- 

 timetres or more. On reaching the end of the furrow the 

 plough is not turned round but simply tilted over, so that 

 the positions of the two mould-boards are reversed and 

 the return furrow is ploughed. It is easily drawn by a 

 pair of bullocks and accomplishes on an average three 

 quarters of a feddan per day. It weighs about 250 rotls 

 and costs 750 P.T. 



FIG. 11. " Bn.vT!.VN 7 T " PLOUGH. 



Like the "Nile" plough the "Brabant" turns the furrows 

 one way. The two mould-boards however, instead of being 

 attached on the balance principle about the axle of the 

 plough, are arranged to turn about an axis in the direction 

 of the furrow. When the plough reaches the end of the 

 furrow it is turned round, and the mould-boards are turned 

 so that the one which made the furrow is now free in the 

 air, and the one which was in the air now does the ploughing.
