Synopsis

Plow Repair Skills explores the crucial role of plow maintenance in shaping agricultural practices and family life in farming communities. It highlights how the ability to repair and maintain plows fostered self-sufficiency and resilience within families. The book delves into the technical aspects of plow repair, such as fixing share wear and beam fractures, using tools and materials available to farming families. Interestingly, the functionality of the plow directly impacted a family's ability to cultivate land, produce food, and sustain themselves, making it the technological heart of pre-industrial agriculture.

 
The book examines the history of the plow, its designs, and operation, then progresses to practical repair techniques and the social and economic dimensions of plow maintenance. It illustrates how repair knowledge was passed down through generations, reinforcing familial bonds through shared labor. By focusing on the often-overlooked perspective of the farming family, Plow Repair Skills offers a unique, ground-level view of agricultural technology and its impact on rural life.

A Rare Recording of Senator...

Senator Richard M. Nixon

The Checkers speech was an address made on September 23, 1952, by Senator Richard Nixon (R-CA) at the El Capitan Theatre in Los Angeles, six weeks before the 1952 United States presidential election, in which he was the Republican nominee for Vice President. Nixon had been accused of improprieties relating to a fund established by his backers to reimburse him for his political expenses. His place was in doubt on the Republican ticket, so he flew to Los Angeles and delivered a half-hour television address in which he defended himself, attacked his opponents, and urged the audience to contact the Republican National Committee to tell it whether he should remain on the ticket. During the speech, he stated that he intended to keep one gift, regardless of the outcome -- a black-and-white Cocker Spaniel that his children had named Checkers, thus giving the address its popular name.
