Woman Farmer Uses Motor Plow on Ranch in Newton County.

Kentland Enterprise. An item appearing in the Enterprise last week concerning the operation of an automobile plow near Washington, this slate, brings reply from Mrs. Jennie M. Conrad. Mrs. Conrad informs us that she has had in successful operation since February a motor plow which not only turns over better than a ten foot strip of ground each trip, but has a harrow attachment which prepares the ground for planting. Mrs. Conrad has plowed six hundred acres of ground on her farm near Conrad this spring with the motor plow, and pronounces it a marked success.
