Handy Farm Devices And How To Make Them

BY ROLFE COBLEIGH

Brief Description:
This book, originally published in 1909, is a tribute to American ingenuity and innovation and a resource for today's homeowners working to become more self-sufficient. Illustrated with black and white drawings, here are 100's of clever ways to transform your home or farm, using scrap material and items readily available from the hardware store or lumberyard. Build a homemade water cooler, a folding chicken roost, a garden stool, a fruit picker, or a small bridge for crossing streams. Here too are a treadmill that can power a dairy separator and churn, a drinking fountain for chickens, a rig for moving large trees, a self-feeder for bees, and gates that lift over snowdrifts.
