A SIMPLE BRUSH HARROW.
It is worth while to clothings well, evon when you aro making as simple ;v thing an a brush-hiirrow. As generally made and used for covering giaf=B seed, rou,uh projections and stumps of severed branches are liable to plough into the soil, milking deep furrowa in what should be ihe th t>m-vsmoo
face of fcho &ee»i bed. Of course, a careful selection ot the suppling or bitiucli ua>ud to form the harrow would a«'O)d this evil to a certain cxteut- : but the best plan is to tix a quantity ot short brush wood (ti-tree) in a rough plank trame. This should be made as shown in the cut, so that a proper quantity of brush may be fixed between two plankb, ia&tened together by a Jew nails, in such a way ah to make the bu-hy endb of the brush bear downwaids »^ttii)f>b the surface ol the laud. A uian'b own ingenuity will show him how to do this utter looking at the cut here givon.
