A short dictionary entry describing the cotton-chopper, a horse-drawn agricultural implement that thins a drilled row of cotton plants by chopping gaps, leaving the plants in bunches or hills. It explains that the machine runs on two wheels with a plow on each side of the row, and that bevel gears drive a revolving head with oblique cutters. A single engraving (Fig. 1483) shows plan and side views.
