THE COMPLETE GRAZIER. 



With fig. 300, Fowler's steam roller, we conclude our illustrations of 

 the more common implements necessary to work land under ordinary 

 circumstances. Among other implements are the draining and re- 

 clamation ploughs. 



A recent introduction is the oil motor travelling over the land and

working a plough, cultivator, or other implement, and used likewise for 

 drawing sheaf-binding reaping machines, as a traction engine on roads, 

 and for threshing, grinding, chaff-cutting, and other operations. The 

 first adaptation of the oil motor to land cultivation to come into public 



notice was that of the late 

 Mr. Dan All.bone, his inven- 

 tion being named the Ivel 

 Agricultural Motor. As 

 drawing a three-furrow 

 plough, it is shown in fig. 301. 

 It is now manufactured by 

 the Ivel Agricultural Motors, 

 Ltd., Great Marlborough 

 Street, London, W. As 

 illustrated, it weighs only 

 32 cwt., a weight which 

 makes comparatively little 

 impression on the land in 

 dry weather. With the aid 



of acetylene lamps, it can be worked by night in cases of emergency. It 

 has been used also for cultivators, harrows, a couple of binders or mowers 

 at one time, threshing, road traction, and other operations of the farm.
