BETTER FRUIT 



March 



^th^ KIMBALL 

 CULTIVATOR 



to keep your Orchard 

 in Perfect Condition 



THE first thing in the spring, as soon as the 

 ground is dry enough, it should be well 

 plowed or disced both ways, or diagonally 

 if the trees are planted in that manner. 



The rest of the season nothing is needed 

 but the KIMBALL, which should be run over 

 the ground at least twice each month during 

 the summer, or as' soon as the ground is dry 

 enough after a hard rain, or after irrigation. 



This will break up the crust and stop evap- 

 oration, for when the soil bakes and opens in 

 cracks is the time of the greatest evaporation. 



More cultivation and less irrigation will 

 produce better fruit, and it will keep longer 

 than where too much water is used. 



It is now for fruit growers to be thinking of how they can keep their orchards in good shape at the least possible 

 expense. 



For this work there is nothing that will equal the Kimball Cultivator. 



While we know the fruit market is bad, we also know it will not always be in this condition, and the grower who neglects 

 to cultivate his orchard at this time will lose the years of labor he has already put in on it, for an orchard that is not culti- 

 vated is soon a total loss. 



Therefore get a Kimball and continue the good work.
