Note 60 — PART I

Reading edition

For cleaning and finally pulverizing the ground, they have another harrow of Chinese origin, (or an invention of the Jesuits?) It is of wrought iron, and for simplicity and utility it is, I think, unequalled. By means of it they can extirpate the Lallang grass (Andropogon caricosum), called by them Cogon,60 and which no other instrument will perform so well, that I am acquainted with.

Explore with AITake your curiosity a little further.
