Handy Farm Devices and How to Make Them - 2nd Edition, a classic from the Golden Age of American Farming, is as useful and pertinent for homesteaders and small-scale farmers today as it was when it was first published nearly 100 years ago.

A wealth of labor- and money-saving projects fills its pages: spill-proof chicken waters; a portable chicken coop; a lightweight orchard ladder; a small truss bridge; an easy fence-post and stump-puller; gates that don't sag; gates that lift over snowdrifts; a handy wood splitter—even a bicycle-powered washing machine.
