THE CHARTEE OAE SWIVEL PLOW. 
THE OXL.Y PERFECT S^\^VEL. PLOW. 
Oeoxo, Me.. Aug. 16, 1S75. 
Dear Sir .-—We have to-daj- tested, by actual trial, the ef- 
ficacy of the Charter Oat Swivel Plow that you sent me 
some weeks since. It was used on dry. stiff loam grass land. 
The ground was sumewha-t slopina:, and the furrows were 
tamed up the elupe. I expected a failure, and seemed like- 
ly to reaUze mv expectations as the furrow slice would slip 
over the end o"f the mold-board, and fall back into the fur- 
row. It then occurred lo me to trv tue effect of expanding 
the brace that held the mold-board' in position. This done, 
the mold performed its work admirable, completely invert- 
ing the furrow-slice, and leaving the" bottom side up with 
ease. 
I have long doubted the po=sibility of constructing a 
swivel plow which would do good work on level or slightly 
undulating land. I am no longer faithless, for I have seen 
the Charter Oak Swivel Plow accomplish this. 
Very truly yours, J. E. FARRIXGTOX, 
Farm Sup't Maine State College.
