The more modern scarifiers, however, are of a lighter draught, 

 and the tines are so arranged that they cover arid break up the track 

 of the wheels. 



Among those more especially adapted for orchard and vine- 

 yard work are the Spring-tooth Harrows made by the Canadian firm 

 of Massey-Harris and the United States firm, Osborne & Co. 



Spring-tooth Harrow. 



THE PLANET JUNIOR HORSE HOE, 



of which there are two sizes, the five and the nine tooth imple- 

 ment, combines several of the essentials of a good agricultural 

 implement ; they are moderate in price, light, strong, are sold with 

 or without interchangeable pieces, do very good work, and are par- 

 ticularly suitable for market gardens, corn or potato cultivation, and 

 small vineyards. The plates which, like the rest of the implement, 

 are made of the best steel, are also secured to the standard by bolts ; 

 they are reversible; and can thus be used until worn out; they are 

 cheaply and easily replaced, and the attachments are so useful that 

 one tool may, by various combinations of the different plates sup- 

 plied with the implement, be made to do a large portion of the 

 preparation for, and the cultivation of, any crops. The same 

 makers have also brought out for extensive cultivation the Top 

 Notch Cultivator, a two-horse implement, and one of the best 

 of scarifiers for vineyard and orchard work.
