Text Appearing After Image:
MARVELS OF AGRICULTURE. 637 The illustration informs the reader at once how a farm of twentyor thirty thousand acres is ploughed. It is divided into sections, withsuperintendent and army of employees for each section, who go towork with military precision and order. The cut opposite representstwo sections of workers, one of them in the distance, each movingforward like a column of cavalry, turning over a hundred acres of soilin an incredibly brief period of time. The superintendent is accom-panied by aids, furnished with all the necessary tools and materialsfor making repairs speedily, so as to reduce delays to the least possi-ble minimum. Under this arrangement the earth is easily conqueredby this mighty army of ploughers, who move forward to the music
