combination of desirable points, which constitute an 

 efficient and convenient implement for cultivating 

 summer fallows, winter fallows, for scarifying stubble 

 ground, and dressing out crops in rows ; and besides this,

The wings are so arranged, that tlie teeth can be made 

 to cut a wide trough ; or they may be contracted so as 

 to cut only a narrow strip, either deep or shallow. As 

 the cut affords such an excellent idea of the implement, 

 the foregoing verbal description will be sufficient to con- 

 vey a fair imderstanding of its construction and opera- 

 tion.
