What is it Wednesday
Welcome to another what is it Wednesday. The item on your left is an old plow, pulled by man, horse, or mule. The item on the right is a tiller, pushed by mankind. Great tools to use in a garden. We are all getting our garden ready for planting (and yes some of you have yours in already). In the 1900 Sears catalog the plow would cost between $9.95 to 12.95 new. I could not find a price for the tiller. Both are made from iron and wood, and in the USA. So when you work in your garden, remember how it done 50 to 100 years ago. Then enjoy your gas power tiller, and how easy it is to use.

Oh boy, memories... I had to use one of those plows when I lived on a farm as a teenager.
Enjoyed this article. I have one in an area of my tiger lily flower bed. Love it.
