 Hoe, Cultiva- 

 tor, Plow 

 and Rake 



The greatest cultivating tool in the world 

 for the grower of garden crops from drilled 

 seeds. The plow opens furrows for manure, 

 seed, etc., and can be reversed for covering. 

 Crops can be worked both sides at once un- 

 til 20 inches high. Steel frame. Just the 

 tool for the onion-grower. 



Frre-Fly 

 Garden Plow 



Especially useful to owners of small gardens and to 

 chicken-raisers for plowing up scratching yards. Its 

 Light weight makes it easy for women or children to 

 use also. Enables the owner of a family garden to 

 do all the work in spare minutes. 



Protect Your Flowers 



Why give them the loving care they require to make them grow and 

 bloom and then leave them exposed to the ravages of animals? 

 Their beauty is not hidden, but enhanced, by the use of 



Lawn and Flower Bed Guards. No matter what the shape of the bed 

 — round, square, oval, crescent — Excelsior Guards will fit perfectly 

 and add to the appearance. Their heavy galvanizing prevents rust. 

 The permanent silver color forms an attractive setting for the rich 

 greens, reds and yellows they enclose. 



Ask your hardware dealer. He will order Excelsior Guards for you if he 

 does not have them in stock. We also make Excelsior Rust Proof Tree 

 Guards, Trellises, Trellis Arches and Fence. Send for catalog B.
