Planet Jr. makes 

 gardening a sport 



Take the drudgery out of garden work and it be- 

 comes a fascinating, healthy outdoor game. There's 

 relaxation and absorbing interest in planting and 

 watching seeds sprout and grow. When you plant 

 and work your garden with Planet Jr., your work is 

 all play — healthful exercise that repays you well. 

 You do the work standing straight, traversing row by 

 row at a steady, even pace. No bending, no contin- 

 uous kneeling. And Planet Jr. does its work so 

 quickly and cleanly. When cultivating, the sharp 

 hoes slice off weeds short below the surface, leaving a 

 fine, protective soil mulch. Yet you can work right 

 close up to the row without injuring the plants. 



Planet Jr. 



For large home gardens No. 12 Planet Jr. Double 

 and Single wheel hoe combined is a great time and 

 labor saver — one of the most popular garden tools 

 made. Opens and closes furrows; straddles and hoes 

 both sides of a row at once. So light, a woman or 

 boy can use it; so strong, it lasts a lifetime. 



The illustrated Planet Jr. catalogue shows just the Planet 

 Jr. garden tool you need. Write for your copy to-day.
