ADDITIONAL: From the bookThe disc plow was brought out in a effort to reduce friction by making a rolling bottom instead of a bottom that would slide along the furrow. It cannot be said with authority that after the extera weigth is incoorated into the plow it will have any less draft than the moldboard type. However it is adapted to conditions where the moldboard will not work such as 1) Sticky, waxy, gumbo, nonscouring soils and soils having a hardpan. 2)Dry hard soil that can not be penetrated with a moldboard. 3)Rough stony and rooty ground where a disk will ride over the rocks. 4)Peaty and leaf-mold soils where a moldboard will not turn the slice. The disc plow is used in the south and north and vety extensivly in the Southwest and semihumid regions of the Middle West. HOME WORK IS NOW DONE. CAN I NOW GO TO THE PROM?
