A short dictionary entry from Knight's American Mechanical Dictionary describing the cotton-chopper, a horse-drawn implement for thinning drilled rows of cotton plants. It is carried on two wheels, with a plow on each side of the row and a bevel-gear-driven revolving head with oblique cutters that chops gaps so plants remain in hills. Includes Fig. 1433 showing top and side views.
