The common disk drill or hoe
drill should never be used in
ground thus fitted. The closed
heel shoe drill that makes a
V-shaped crevice in the soil and
dropping the kernels in at the
bottom of the . so-called double
disk drill; a drill that is con- I
istructed1 with two straight coul- f
ters, with the two front edges
coming together at the point of
contact with the . soil, and a de
vice to drop the seed at the bot-
torn of the narrow crevice thus ;
made is most ; desirable. The '
tendency of the two varieties of
drills last mentioned is to pack
or firm the soil in the vicinity
where the seed is deposited.
This is a desirable condition.
