Note, The Length of a common Plow-Share’s Neck, doth not always bear fo great a Proportion to its other Parts, as of that in Fig. 1. of Plate 1. but very often the fame as that of Fig. 2. and the other ‘'Shares fhewn in the faid Plate. £f> The Plow-wright in placing the Sheat into thefe Plows, ought to obferve the Obliquity of it deferib’a in Fig. 4. (the Fore-End of the long Handle X, and of the Earth-Board nearly conforming thereto), which Obliquity is greater than it feems to appear in the Perfpeftive View of it in the Plow Fig. 3.

Note alfo. The Drill-Sheats in Plate 4. mull be tapering downwards, fo that they may not be thicker that Part that goes, within the Qround, than the Breadth of the Share. . 4 ’. •A J JL \ f - V- j
