The use of power equipment in the improvement of Alberta bush lands / by B.K. Acton.A12-8/127-1944E-PDF

"Mechanization has taken place in most industries, including agriculture. The use of power machinery in the improvement of bush lands is a natural step in the elimination of inefficient methods. ... In order to obtain more complete information on the rapidity, efficiency, and economy of land improvement by the use of power machinery, six owner-operators of equipment were interviewed. ... Power machinery used in the improvement of bush land consists of four main pieces of equipment, as follows:—1. The crawler tractor, to provide the power. 2. The V-shaped brush cutter. 3. The brush piler. 4. The breaking plough."--p. [3].
