It is a well-known fact that every building needs permanent stability. In order to have stability, buildings should have foundations.

They guard the walls and the floors against the action of the weather – rain, snow, and wind. Foundations keep the walls and the floors of buildings from direct contact with the soil. They also guard buildings against sinking that may cause cracks in the walls. Foundation design is very special. It may be both rather complex and very simple. It is a common practice that for very small buildings foundation design is usually much simpler than for large ones.

Tractors occupy an important place on the farm as a source of power. On many farms they, together with trucks or trailers, have entirely displaced horses for farm work. An advantage of tractors power over the horse is that tractor can be used continuously for heavy work. In addition to pulling implements like ploughs and cultivators, a tractor may be used with implements for bush-cleaning, ditch-filling and land-leveling.

At the beginning of the 20th century mechanization of such basic processes as ploughing, sowing, grain-harvesting was still by no means complete. Now we can say that it is. The thing now is the full-scale mechanization of jobs requiring more intricate machinery, such as harvesting of sugar-beets, cotton, mowing of hay crops, silaging and livestock care. Today our collective and state farms are able to obtain high yields of crops and animal produce because they work in close contact with science. At the dawn of history we find man practicing the most elementary methods of modifying soil conditions. He broke up the surface and prepared a seed-bed, using for this purpose the most primitive of all cultivating devices, a digging implement like a hoe. In early times the principal crops were cereals and flax.

By disease in plant is meant some disturbance in the normal life-processes which affects either a particular organ or the entire plant, and which sometimes leads to premature death. Cultivated plants are usually more liable to disease than wild plants. The losses caused by plant diseases are sometimes enormous, and cultivation of certain crops in some countries had been abandoned in the past owing to the ravages of disease. Storage losses through disease may be severe. Disease in plants may be brought about either through attack by some kind of parasite or by some autonomous, functional derangement.
