This ilexiliility admits of one bar dropping into furrow or hollow, while the other bar is working on a higher level,, and it enables the 
driver with the aid of the tilting lever, without leaving seat, to clear the harrow of rubbish which may accumulate under the coulters. 
fn other harrows where the gang bars are fastened rigidly together, neither bar will remain on the ground when the other bar is 
passing an obstruction, nor will either bar drop into a dead furrow or other hollow when the other bar is on a higher level. Neither can
