Figure 6. hand side of the same illustration show how suction is adjusted in engine plows. However, this sliould be a last resort. A walking plow is given "bearing" at the wing of the share, more in moist soil than in hard, dry soil. This is required to hold the plow level and prevent it "winging" over. A gang plow share does not require any because the bottom is held up by the bails (the U-shajied bars on which the beams swing). Turn the plow up and lay a straight edge from tlie heel of the Lnulside to the wing of the share. Figure (i "A" shows "suction" on bottom of landside. Fig- ure 4 "A" shows snction to the land. Figure 6 "C" shows a .share suitable for moist, soft soil. Figure 6 "B" shows a share in foi-m for liard, dry soil or a gang plow. Figure 6 "D" shows a share that would do well for an average gang plow. You ean readily see that, if by mistake a shipper sends you one of each kiiul when you order a new set for \our plow, one furrow will be deeper than the other and the .source of trouble "^ii.
