The next cuts, Figs. 112 and 113, represent views of the Col- 

 linsville plow in competition in this class, and the separate pieces 

 which compose it. 



The trials were made on lands one-quarter of an acre in extent. 

 After a very careful examination and comparison, the judges deci- 

 ded upon the several points as follows: 



First — Pulverizing power: One-half the judges were of opinion 

 that Holbrook's plow pulverized the soil more effectually than the 

 other. The other half were of opinion that the Collins plow had 

 pulverized the land quite as well as the Holbrook plow. No 

 decision was had upon this point. 



Second — Non liability to choke in stubble: The judges were 

 unanimously of opinion that Holbrook's was superior in this 

 respect. 



Third — Lightness of draught: The following is the record upon 

 this point: 



Holbrook's No. QQ. 



Collms' Plow B 14.
