Ploughing-under Green Crops. 
Iv ploughing-in green crops such as clover, peas, and vetches} there requires 
some little management in doing the work effectively. There is a difficulty in ~ 
covering up the haulms and stalks completely. To facilitate this operation, 
a chain is attached to the plough as shown in this illustration (from The 
Agricultural Journal of the Cape of Good Hope) :— 
The chain (A) attached to the plough is held in its proper position by the 
rod (B), and this contrivance will be found a great assistance in turning the 
stuff under and covering it up. The chain should be tolerably heavy. If a 
suitable rod is not at hand, a pole may be fixed as a makeshift, but if much 
work has to be done, it will pay to give a job to the blacksmith.
