Abstract: An erosion prevention system and method of use for diverting and deflecting water from an irrigation pipe to inhibit erosion of ground adjacent to the irrigation pipe includes an irrigation pipe extending upwardly from the ground. An open top end of the irrigation pipe permits water in the irrigation pipe to exit the irrigation pipe and irrigate the ground. A deflection plate is positioned around the irrigation pipe and placed on the ground. The deflection plate deflects and disperses the water exiting the irrigation pipe to inhibit the water from eroding the ground adjacent to the irrigation pipe.

Abstract: Standard baler machines use a plurality of wires to tie the bales. Each wire is fed from a coil which is transported from the wire works in a paperboard carton which is rectangular in shape and appropriately scored on either of its two broad sides to enable the centers of the sides to be removed in circular cutouts. The lead end of the coil of wire is drawn out of one cutout and threaded through appropriate guides to the tie mechanism. The tail end of the coil is usually drawn out of the opposite cut-out and spliced to the lead end of a second coil in a second carton. The two cartons are usually installed back to back in a rack on the baler with a space between the adjacent broad sides. In accordance with the present invention, each carton is scored or otherwise weakened from the top of one cut-out, over the top of the carton to the top of the opposite cut-out.
