 axles, of a draft-pole hiuI its coiineclioii with 

 the plow-frame, atid ol" a lever, connocting- 

 anus, and standards, whereby the plows may 

 be raised out of the gixrvind or letdown to the 

 l>roper depth. 



It also consists in means for connecting 

 the pole with the frame of tho plowG, nnd au 

 ailjiisting mechanism for its rear end, which is 

 so connected as to travel forward and back 

 vitli the pole with relation to the frame, to- 

 gether withtheme-ans for snppoitingthe whole 

 ni)ou the wheels, by which tho plows will hold 

 their position iu the land and make an e(]ual 

 cut iu land of variable rpiahty and hardness.

Tbe object of my invention is to dispcuKe 

 with tbe use of a tongue on snlky-plows; and 

 to this end my inverition consists principally 

 in guidingand steadying the jdow from tbe rear 

 by means of a wheel attached in such manner 

 that a tongue will not be ncodetl, the wheel be- 

 ing at the same time adapted to carry a part 

 of the weight of tbe plow. 



My invetitioh also consists of cortutu moans 

 whereby the wheel may be attached to plows 

 now in nse and the tpngues thereof dispensed 

 with, and also of monns for regnlaling and 

 means for adjustiug the wheel, and (iually of
