I saw this silent movie made in 40 I think it is put on either by a collage or by tractor dealerships. It shows a Oliver that I think is a 70 and a MM that might be an early R. Whatever, They look to be 2 plow tractors.
However
They are showing them using 1 bottom plows, with a section of rotary hoe alongside. They are going real fast. Im wondering if the collages was trying to show farmers that they could plow with one 14, or 16 with a rotary hoe attached to the side at a higher gear and speed, and finish just as quick OR quicker when considering not having to do double discing, AND with the possibility of saving gas.
Also
They had the oliver decked out later with what looked like a cultivator frame with no schovels, but with a spinning set of rotary hoe tines with their axles set in front of the rig facing forward, and the wheels themselves facing sideways of travel. The hoes were motorized somehow, likely either by the belt or PTO
