The new package, containing an easily assembled single-wheel hand plow of fifteen pounds net weight, lg primarily designed for the smallholding farmers of India and Pakistan, but may eventually also be shipped to other Far Eastern countries, French explained. Though basically intended for manuel operation, the plow is adaptable for the use of bullocks or other draft' animals, which may be hitched ta: its axle. '"Extreme care has been taken; in the design of the plow," French stressed, "so as to present the Eastern farmer with an implement, which in shape and practical application resembles the ploipt> which he has been us^d, in somef> cases for thousands or years." ; CARE'S departure from its cus~ tomary food and textile packages; French explained, was due to the; consideration that the best form, of relief is to help others to help themselves. Eastern farmers are Still largely doing their plowing with nothing better than a crooked stick. Any improvement of their time-honored but ineffective implements may well result in doubling, perhaps even trebling agricultural production in a portion of the world where birth rate threatens to outrun the available food supply." Orders for CARE's new plow may be sent to the Chicago Committed or CARE, 189 West Madison Street, Chicago 2. The price for the plow package, like that of CARE standard food packages, will be $10, and includes guaranteed, tax-free delivery anywhere in India and" Pakistan.
