 Williamsburg, Pa. Plows. Aug. 21, i860. 



Claim. 1. the cutter C, as set forth, in 

 combination with the corresponding fitting 

 part in the face side of the land-side L, and 

 the upper part of the land-side made sharp, 

 that when it and the cutter are united, they 

 form one continuous cutter, as substantially 

 described, when said parts are combined with 

 the mold-board M. 



2. The arrangement of the movable point P, 

 with its sections as set forth, and the share S, 

 with its upper and lower sections, as stated, 

 and the knob/, on the lower edge of the land- 

 side L, for the purpose named, in combination 

 with the point and share, as specified above.

 claim the arrangement of the clevis D and cir- 

 cular saw A ; the whole being constructed as 

 and for the purpose set forth. 



31,452. JOSEPH K. GINGRICH, North 

 Anville, Pa. Plows. Feb. 19, 1861. 



The driving-wheel rotates upon an axle at- 

 tached to the swinging-bar N, and can be 

 raised from the ground by the rod P. This 

 wheel, by means of a connecting rod, operates 

 the crank I, giving the bar k, which is crescent 

 shaped at its extremity, a downward and thrust- 

 ing movement for clearing grass &c, from the 

 standard and bar. The team is attached to the 

 rod H, the rear end of which is fastened to the 

 bent lever I behind the standard and under the 

 beam, one arm of this lever extending under 

 the beam, and connected by the rod g to the 

 curved spring J, thus forcing the plow down to 

 its work, the spring obviating the injurious ef- 

 fects of concussions. 



Claim. The arrangement of the driving- 

 wheel L, elevating rod P, swinging rod N, con- 

 necting rod L', crank h, clearer k, beam G, 

 rod h, crank I, spring J, and handles F F', 

 with the plow body AA'BB'CD D', as and 

 for the purpose shown and described. 



35,147. E. T. FORD, Stillwater, N. Y. 



Plows. May 6, 1862. 



To the rear end of the main beam is united 

 the rear section, which is provided with slots 

 so as to allow of its adjustment to the right or 

 left. The front section consists of two flanged 

 pieces placed on each side of the main beam, 

 and is connected to the rear section by side- 

 rods. These side rods pass through the cross 

 bar near its extremities, and the slot upon the. 

 under side of the cross bar, through the lower 

 part of which the center bar passes, prevents 

 the rods from turning it to either the right or 

 left. 



Claim. The peculiar arrangement and con- 

 struction of a truss plow-beam, consisting of 

 the sectional parts, the rear section g, front 

 section I, cross bar X, the side rods V V and 

 the double box c c, as connected to the center 



bar e e, the whole combined as described and 

 represented. 



42,838. GEORGE B. CLARKE, 



Leonardsville, N. Y. Plows. May 24, 1864. 



This invention consists in the arrangement 

 under the plow-beam and nearly over the 

 point of the share of an arm or " vibrating 

 lever," which is operated by means of a con- 

 necting-rod or link extending upon the upper 

 side of the beam to the rear, and attached to 

 an arm placed within reach of the operator 

 for the purpose of removing any obstruction 

 from before the plow. At the side of the 

 beam is also a bar, enlarged at its front end, 

 and arranged to slide forward and backward 

 to remove stalks, &c, into the sweep of the 

 above mentioned vibrating arm. 



Claim. 1. The vibrating lever K, work- 

 ing under the plow-beam to remove the stalks, 

 straw, or other obstructions from before the 

 plow. 



2. In combination with the lever K, the 

 link M and arm G to operate the lever K, 

 substantially as described. 



3. The traversing bar I, for the purpose of 

 pushing the stalks, straw, and other obstruc- 

 tions into the sweep of the lever K or from 

 before the plow. 



52,807. THOMAS J. CORNELL, De- 

 catur, 111. Plows. Feb. 20, 1866. 



This invention consists in the arrangement 

 of conical cutter-wheels with the plate or cover 

 of the plow whereby the earth is cut or pul- 

 verized thoroughly as it is thrown up and 

 turned over by the mold-board, while at the 

 same time the plate or cover prevents the 

 earth from falling over and between the mold- 

 board and landside, thereby preventing the 

 draught wheel from being clogged by the dirt. 



Claim. 1. The plate or cover G placed be- 

 tween the upper edges of the landside and 

 mold-board when used in connection with the 

 wheel E, for the purpose specified. 



2. The wheel I, constructed and arranged 

 substantially as shown, journalled on a hori- 

 zontal axis set obliquely to the line of draught, 

 and rotated by contact with the furrow slice. 



53,100. WM. J. M. BATCHELDER, 

 Dayton, Ohio, and CELESTIN LEIBER, 

 Harrisburg, Pa. Plows. March 13, 1866. 



This invention consists in the construction 

 of a device attached to a plow for the purpose 

 of removing the grass, stubble, or other mate- 

 rial which impedes the operation of plowing. 



Claim. 1. The clog-piece a and slide d, 

 constructed and operating substantially as de- 

 scribed, when connected to a plow-beam, for 

 the purpose specified. 



2. The combination of the clog-piece a, 

 slide d, lever g, bar h, and lever i, constructed 

 and arranged substantially as described and 

 for the purposes set forth.
