206  Miscellaneous  hnplements  EMnhlted  at  Park  Iloi/al. 
The  Jiulo'es  had  tliose  Four  machines  out  For  trial  upon  the 
Farm  oF  Mr.  George  Earley,  Manor  Farm,  Yeading,  Hayes. 
The  field  was  a oood  fair  crop  of  clover,  cut  with  a view  to  its 
being  in  the  right  condition  for  first  turning  at  the  time  of  the 
trial.  All  the  machines  were  well  tried  as  swath  turners,  and 
afterwards  an  attempt  was  made  hy  each  at  collecting,  for 
which,  however,  none  of  them  was  suitable. 
As  swath  turners  it  cannot  he  said  that  any  of  the  first 
tin  •ee  did  satisfactory  work,  hut  No.  1506,  Martin’s,  actjuitted 
itself  thoroughly  well,  turning  the  swath  neatly,  gently,  and 
lightly,  and  well  over  on  to  the  dry  ground. 
The  principal  improvements  in  this  machine  since  last  year 
consist  in  jdacing  discs  or  wind  guards  on  the  rear  end  of  the 
turners  ; in  each  turner  having  four  arms  and  rakes  instead  of 
six.  ; and  in  increasing  the  length  of  the  rakes,  thus  giving  the 
machine  about  six  inches  wider  raking  surface  than  before.
