It must not be inferred from this, that we would advise a farmer, who has always plowed his soil to the depth of only six inches, to double the depth at once. Such a practice in some soils would be highly injurious, as it would completely bury the more fertile and better cultivated soil, and bring t[r]

Young piglets kept on concrete floors may quickly develop serious anaemia (a shortage of iron in the blood), because the sow’s milk does not contain enough iron to cover the piglets’ needs. After two or three weeks they become pale and their rate of growth drops. They may develop a fat neck. Anaemia[r]

Lesson 9-Welding Fabrication and welding for hull are two primary workmanship in shipbuilding, and so the quality, working efficiency and cost of shipbuilding directly rely on them. So far fabrication has been dwelled upon in Workmanship for Hull Building. Therefore, this short passage will simply d[r]
