Spring plowing is more en’ective in the con- trol 0! Weeds, as, being turned under Just before seeding, they have less chance to crowd the grain. The old plowmen simply scratched the soil with their crude implements. going over the field time and time again, crossing and re-crossing until they had worked up a few inches into a seed bed. The Roman farms were rarely over five acres in extent, and' when our forefathers in this country used the old wooden plow, the clear- ings among the stumps were small. The two century gap between the old rooter that scratched the soil surface and the new multiple bottom tractor plow of to-day is a long stretch for the numerous plow milestones that stand by the way to mark the pro- gress of Agricultureâ€"L. Stevenson, O. A. 0.. Guelph. James Small, a Scotsman, was the first inventor and manufacturer of the cast-iron mould board. At that time (1760) the plow was generally the joint manufacture of the village wheelwright and blacksmith. Plow- shares had been made of wrought iron until 1785, when a patent was granted to Robert Ransome for the making of cast-iron shares. The case hardening process as applied to cast- iron shares was the subject of a patent granted in 1803. British Plows the Climax in Develop- ment. The Rotheruam plow. Small’s chain plow, and Small’s Scotch plow represented the climax in plow de- velopment previous to 1800, and the men whose ingenuity, spirit, and per- serverance brought about the devel- opment in plow making were Fol- Jambe, Small, Wilkie,~ Finlayson and Ransome. The work and develop- ment of the plow during the past 126 years is too well known to all to warrant its mention here. The Rotherham plow was made by J. FolJambe at Rotherham, and a patent was granted for it in 1730. It was then the most perfect in use. and is still well known after two cen- turies. This plow was constructed chiefly of wood, the draft iron share and coulter and the plating on the mould board and sole being the only Darts made of iron. With the de- velopment of the iron industry, it was but a short time before plows made entirely of iron and steel were being made. The first attempt at the construc- tion of a subsoil plow was made in 1677. It loosened the land up to a depth of fourteen inches. It is not necessary to do more than point to the various and numerous references which are found in early history of this valuable implement. For ages the plow was little more than a clumsy instrument, which served only to tear up the surface of the land sufficiently deep for the seeds to be buried. It was not brought to any- thing like a perfect tillage tool until the close of the seventeenth century. The Dutch were amongst the first who brought the plow more into shape, and soon its best features were copied and included in the‘Britisher's idea of a plow. It is curious to trace the progress of plowmaking in Britain, where Cesar introduced the plow about 65 3.0. Those of the early cultiva- tors were of necessity rude and im- perfect, for in those days the plow- man was obliged by law to make a plow before he was permitted to use one. It is uncertain whether the early British plow had wheels, but some of those of the Saxons wens furnished with them. The Norman plow was furnished with wheels, and it was usual for the plowman to carry a hatchet to break the clods. Introduction 01 the Subsoil Plow. Iron plowshares were used many centuries before the Christian era by the Romans. and the iron was used for a double purposeâ€"tor plow- points one year and for swords and spears the next, as iron was scarce in those days. The Romans greatly improved the plow by putting on a wheel and also a coulter. Many races of peOple showed a widespread hos- tility to the use of iron in connection with agriculture, believing that iron poisoned the land. Wooden Plows Used in America 160 Years Ago. The people at all countries went through the early experience 01 find- ing a ways and means of tilling the soil, some slowly, some rapidly; an curiously enough the first plow of a nations were much the same in spitl' of the fact that some nations started thirty or forty centuries ahead of the others.

The thing that is worry- ing the shoe manufacturers is that. their home market is slipping away from them; with lessened demand, they can not work their factories to the limit of capacity, and there is not much profit in working them to less. German shoes with the ad- vantage of a low wage and depre- ciated currency and British shoes favored by a low wage. a discounted pound and preference have made sad inroads on the Canadian market and are steadily gaining ground. During the past year, for instance, Canada's imports of boots and shoes were six and a half times as great as her exports, and in October of this year. the number of pairs im- ported from Britain was two and a half times what it was in October, 'I 101‘) l 923 PROTECTION AND SHOES Two thuusand \YUI'kaH employed in Shoe t'aeteries in Montreal have signed a petition urging the Domin- iun Government to increase the tariff on boots and shoes.
