Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Equipment for the Farm and the Farmstead This book, as suggested by its title, contains a discussion of the general problem of equipping the farm and the farmstead. The material herein presented has been collected from various sources during the authors service as a teacher. An effort has been made to bring together and to present in a readable and teachable form such facts and principles as the modern farmer demands and must understand for the successful practice of his profession. It is only in very recent years that questions such as those discussed in this book have been given the consideration which they deserve. Colleges, experiment stations, institute speakers, and lecturers generally, have given their full time and effort during the past quarter of a century to the discussion of larger crop yields and better live stock. It is well perhaps that it should have been so, for profitable crop and live-stock production are the foundation of agricultural prosperity. On the other hand, when one reflects that about one fifth of the total value of farms in the corn belt is wrapped up in buildings and machinery, the wonder is that the subject has not been given adequate discussion long before. But times have changed and the remarkable interest which is now being taken in such questions as farm buildings, water supply, sewage-disposal, farm lighting etc. proves beyond question that information on these and kindred subjects is being eagerly sought. The point of view taken in this book has been, first, that of the farmer of the present who is seeking information as to ways and means of making his work easier and his burdens lighter to whom it is hoped the book will make a strong appeal and in the solution of whose problems it is believed he may find practical help; second, that of the student who is to become the farmer of the future.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Minor Articles of Farm Equipment Among the leaks in farming to which because of their apparent unimportance little attention has been directed is the waste which occurs through a. General lack oi' comprehension as to the extent and value of the minor articles which are necessary to the smooth run ning of a farm. This waste is exhibited in extra expense through the purchase of unnecessary tools and materials; in the loss of time and discounts in buying numerous articles singly or in small lots; in the loss, theft, and rapid depreciation of items of equipment. Considered too insignificant to require systematic care; and in the losses in many directions through the lack or the misplacement of equipment at times when it is urgently needed.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Morton's Handbooks of the Farm, Vol. 6: Equipment Drainage Implements. - A draining plough for steam power* consists of a vertical coulter carrying a horizontal mole suspended from the beam frame of a four-wheeled carriage. It is hauled by wire rope from the winding drum of a steam engine, and the mole is raised or lowered by screw gear as it travels, according to the unevenness of the surface. When used as a mole plough two pits are first dug, one at each headland: the coulter is then lowered into the one and hauled to the other, the mole leaving an open waterway behind. When pipes are used, pits are dug at intervals: a wire rope is hooked on to the heel of the mole, and pipes strung on it are drawn through the distance between two pits; the wire rope is withdrawn, leaving the pipes behind, and another length of pipes is strung on. Depth 2 to 3 feet. For very steep inclines, and in subsoils liable to wash away, mole drains are unsuitable.

This book was released on 2017-07-27 with total page 794 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Book of Farm Implements and Machines I 71 Steam Cultivation - Mr William Smith of Woolstone, Bucks Mr John Allin Williams of Balyden, Wilts and Mr P. A. Halkett of Merton Road, Wandsworth, London. These gentlemen, by a large expenditure of time and money, have done much tos the solu tion of the question of economical steam-cultivation. The inven tions of Mr Smith and Mr Williams depend for their action on a system of traction by ropes, pulleys, and windlasses, after the man ner, more or less modified, employed by Mr Fowler, whose plan we have fully described. Mr Halkett's plan involves arrangements of decided novelty, inasmuch as he prepares the land to be cultivated for the operation of the implements employed, by laying down tram or guide ways, by which he proposes to insure a precision of Opera tion otherwise unattainable. Of machines or implements adapted to steam-cultivation, to be dragged over the land either by the direct power of a portable steam-engine fitted with Boydell's Endless Railway, or by the windlass-and-pulley system of Fowler, and cognate plans, we may here notice the Cultivator, with revolving tines, of Mr Bernard Samuelson of Banbury, and the Eleven-tined Cultivator of Mr Richard Coleman of Chelmsford. Of recent patents connected with steam cultivation now attracting attention, mention may be made of those of Mr A. Dacre Lacy, of Hall House, Knayton, near Thirsk, York shire; of Mr Thomas Keddy, of Handsforth, Stafford; of Mr T. Ricketts, of Castle Foundry, Buckingham and of Messrs Howard and Baker, Bedford.

Download or read book The Resilient Farm and Homestead written by Ben Falk and published by Chelsea Green Publishing Company. This book was released on 2013 with total page 323 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Resilient Farm and Homestead is a manual for developing durable, beautiful, and highly functional human habitat systems fit to handle an age of rapid transition. Ben Falk is a land designer and site developer whose permaculture-research farm has drawn national attention. The site is a terraced paradise on a hillside in Vermont that would otherwise be overlooked by conventional farmers as unworthy farmland. Falk's wide array of fruit trees, rice paddies (relatively unheard of in the Northeast), ducks, nuts, and earth-inspired buildings is a hopeful image for the future of regenerative agriculture and modern homesteading. The book covers nearly every strategy Falk and his team have been testing at the Whole Systems Research Farm over the past decade, as well as experiments from other sites Falk has designed through his off-farm consulting business. The book includes detailed information on earthworks; gravity-fed water systems; species composition; the site-design process; site management; fuelwood hedge production and processing; human health and nutrient-dense production strategies; rapid topsoil formation and remineralization; agroforestry/silvopasture/grazing; ecosystem services, especially regarding flood mitigation; fertility management; human labor and social-systems aspects; tools/equipment/appropriate technology; and much more, complete with gorgeous photography and detailed design drawings. The Resilient Farm and Homestead is more than just a book of tricks and techniques for regenerative site development, but offers actual working results in living within complex farm-ecosystems based on research from the "great thinkers" in permaculture, and presents a viable home-scale model for an intentional food-producing ecosystem in cold climates, and beyond. Inspiring to would-be homesteaders everywhere, but especially for those who find themselves with "unlikely" farming land, Falk is an inspiration in what can be done by imitating natural systems, and making the most of what we have by re-imagining what's possible. A gorgeous case study for the homestead of the future.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ""The Life of Cheese" is the definitive work on America's artisanal food revolution. Heather Paxson's engaging stories are as rich, sharp, and well-grounded as the product she scrutinizes. A must read for anyone interested in fostering a sustainable food system." Warren Belasco, author of "Meals to Come: A History of the Future of Food" "Heather Paxson's lucid and engaging book, "The Life of Cheese," is a gift to anyone interested in exploring the wonderful and wonderfully complex realities of artisan cheesemaking in the United States. Paxson deftly integrates careful considerations of the importance of sentiment, value and craft to the work of cheesemakers with vivid stories and lush descriptions of their farms, cheese plants and cheese caves. While she beguiles you with the stories and tastes of cheeses from Vermont, Wisconsin and California, she also asks you to envision a post-pastoral ethos in the making. This ethos reconsiders contemporary beliefs about America's food commerce and culture, reimagines our relationship to the natural world, and redefines how we make, eat, and appreciate food. For cheese aficionados, food activists, anthropologists and food scholars alike, reading "The Life of Cheese" will be a transformative experience."

Download or read book Payline written by Oscar H. Will, III and published by Motorbooks. This book was released on 2007-02 with total page 159 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To many people, a wheel loader is called a PayLoader, thanks to the dominance of the classic rubber-tired, hydraulic front-end loader first developed by the Frank G. Hough company in 1944. When International Harvester acquired Hough and combined it with its struggling construction equipment division in 1974, PayLine was born, with the PayLoader as its signature machine. This book tells the story of PayLine, which marked the high point of International Harvester's foray into construction equipment. Oscar H. Will III chronicles the company's early efforts, its success with machines ranging from the PayLoader to the PayHauler, and it's expansion right up to its sale to Dresser Industries in 1982. With attention to each particular model, including history, specifications, market position, and color photographs of these mighty machines at work, this book is a fitting tribute to International Harvester's giants in the earth, and a critical chapter in the story of American industry.
