The benefits of under-drainir- are becoming more apparent to the farmer every year, and to meet the demand for a Draining Machine, we have constructed at a great cost the Elevator DitcliiiiH- lTTn<>liiii(>, „hich we now present to the public as the only />rm//i-a/ Draining Machine ever invented or plactd on the market It is capable of cutting in clean soils with one man and one team ol horses to work it, from half a mile to one mile of ditch, 3 feet deep, 8 inches wide at bottom' and 12 inches wide at top, in 10 hours. Wheie the ground is hard or sioney, an extra team of horses will be required to accomplish the same amount of work. It is so constructed that the operator sits on a spring seat in the rear of the Machine and controls it by a system of levers as easily as a Reaper or Mower. With t>^e exception of the truck wheels, it is made entirely ot SiccI, therefore combining all the good qualities of ^trt'iijflli, ffjfjiiliicss siii«I Diirsibilil}-. The above engraving gives a general idea cf its construction. The Elevating Whe.l is 4 feet in diameter with a tire in sections, each of which forms the bottom of a Bucket or Elevator. When the wheel is in motion, the liuckets or Elevators as they reach the Spade, which is stationed immediately behind the Elevating Wheel, are forced out, and, by means of a cam 'fill themselves with the eanh that has been raised by the spade. It is then elevated to the top or discharging point, where'the buckets are drawn into the wheel, and the earth is scraped off the tire and allowed to run down a steel spout, which deposits it at a convtnient distance from the trench. The spade is regulated by a lever to cut any required depth up to 3 inches, or may be drawn entirely out of the cut if desired. By throwing down the Castor Wheel with the lever for the purpose, and raising the front end of the machine by a lever on the right of the operator, it can be mounted on three wheels for turning or moving about. The Machine is drawn forwaid and backward in the same track, cutting any desired depth up to three inches each time according to the nature of the soil, until the ditch is completed.
