Results of Public Demonstrations of the REVOLT/ On the 24tli May, 1920. at a demonstration held at Kerchesters Farm, Sprouston, nearKELSO, (at which official representatives of the Scottish Board of Agricultureand of the Highland Society were present), the machine excavated a drain 2 3 wide, and 450 yards long, in 1^ hours. This performance constituted aparticularly severe test, the ground being of a stili clayey nature. A tremendousnumber of stones and rocks were encountered; but no difficulty was experienced, andwhere an absolute boulder blocked the way, the machine jumped the boulder ineach case, the boulder being afterwards removed by hand. The cost of cutting drains has been thoroughly examined by practical experts, who haveproved that such work averages 9d. per chain, based on the hire of a Tractor at 12/-per hour (which includes driver, fuel and depreciation) and two men at 1/6 each perhour.
