Part 2 — Pointed End on a Hoe
Reading edition

The rounding end on the ordinary hoe is useless in many instances for getting under growing plants, to cut out the weeds and to loosen up the earth. I find that shaping the hoe ends as shown in the sketch is very effective in getting up close to a plant and under spreading vines.—Contributed by R. F. Pohle, E Lynn, Mass.
