BARKER 



WEEDER, MULCHER AND 

 CULTIVATOR 



Is pushed along the rows at an ordinary

 the weeds and at the same time break 

 up the clods and crust into a porous, 

 even mulch. 



For deeper cultivation, it has easily at- 

 tached shovels — making three garden 

 tools in one. 



"Best Weed Killer Ever Used" 

 The BARKER chops the weeds and up- 

 turns their roots. Works close to plants. 

 Guards protect the leaves. Cuts run- 

 ners. Leaves a mulch which draws and 

 holds the moisture at the plant roots.
