Planet Jr. Narrow Tooth Cultivator 



for he will have so much to do with his hands in 

 order to obtain a compensatory crop, that his efforts 



will most likely re- 

 sult in failure. He 

 will soon become dis- 

 gusted and declare 

 that it does not pay 

 to bother with grow- 

 ing strawberries. It 

 is not much bother 

 to the one who has a 

 good share of gump- 

 tion, a little spunk, 

 was not born tired, 

 and has a genuine love for the fruit after it is grown. 

 It will be noted that the Planet Jr. narrow twelve 

 tooth Cultivator is generally approved as the correct 

 implement in the strawberry bed; nothing could be 

 better ; nothing else so good ; so I have taken pains to 

 give it here and to show the clean rows it leaves behind. 

 The teeth are all adjustable 

 and those nearest the row 

 may be turned backward, en- 

 abling the user to run shallow 

 and avoid tearing the roots of 

 the plants ; every berry grower 

 must have this tool. I also 

 show another essential imple- 

 ment for those who have onl} 

 a garden bed, this is made by the Allen firm and is 

 called the two wheel hand cultivator. By pushing this 

 along the rows frequently all w r eeds are kept down, 

 the ground kept mellow, and hand hoeing lessened.
