Bird scarers and farming tools in 19th century notes
A reader discusses bird deterrents including an iron device fixed in a field to trigger timed sounds, and a string-and-tin setup that frightened crows. The letter praises a spading fork for garden work and includes an agricultural tip that charred corn cobs soaked in brine can prevent cholera in hogs.
