 Harrow 



If we were to find a farmer without a Spring- 

 Tooth Harrow we would know that he was 

 back behind the times. Every farm and garden 

 needs one; no tool will take its place. Now, we 

 claim to have the best one, and our prices we 

 know are low. The material that our machines 

 are made of is the best to be had. 15-tooth, 

 $16.50, with shoes; 17-tooth, $19.00, with wheels. 



Disc Harrow 



DISC HARROWS. The time is long past when a farmer or 

 market gardener can do without a Disc Harrow. When your 

 ground is weedy and lumpy then is the time when you need and 

 want a Disc Harrow. No machine can get your ground in as 

 good order as this one so quickly. Our Disc Harrows are strong, 

 yet not too heavy; easy on horse and man; saves labor — that 

 means saves money; does the work better than it is possible to 

 do it with a plow and any other harrow — that again means 

 time and labor. A dollar saved is a dollar made. 8 i6-in. disc, 

 $20.00; 10 i6-in. disc, $21.00; 12 i6-in. disc, $24.00. 



80, "Iron Age" Pivot=Wheel Riding Cultivator 



BALL BEARINGS. The whole weight of this tool rests upon hard- 

 ened steel balls, and since the pivots are very close to the center of the 

 wheels it can be very easily guided. 



PIVOT WHEELS. This Cultivator is guided by pivoting the wheels, 

 with which method of operation all intelligent farmers are familiar, espe- 

 cially those who have occasion to work a cultivator on hill sides, or 

 are desirous of economizing space at the end of rows. The wheels can 

 be easily fixed in position by simply dropping a pin in a hole, for the 

 working of the cultivator in fallow ground and for drawing it to and 

 from the field. 

 _ GANG-ADJUSTING LEVER. The gang can be moved close to- 



gether or further apart, so as to change to cultivate young or more ma- 

 tured crops, simply by the movement of the gang-adjusting level, which is at the right of the operator, just in a correct 

 position to easily handle. 



Very often farmers desire to plant a different crop in one end of the field than in the other, especially by reason of 

 the character of the soil being different. In each instance the rows are often the same width apart, but one crop may be 

 one that grows bushy, while the other upright; for instance, potatoes and corn. In cultivating such, the gangs must be 

 set comparatively wide for the potatoes, while for the other part of the row, containing corn, the gangs must be closed 

 up, in order to cultivate near enough to the crop. By a simple, easy move of the gang-adjusting lever, the change can 

 be made while the team is in motion. By reason of not being able to adjust the gangs quickly by a lever, extra space for 

 turning must be used, thus wasting good land, or one crop, or the other left to suffer by the gangs being set too wide 

 apart to do the desired good to one, and too narrow, so as to injure the other. Price, $30.00. Packed, weight, 425 pounds.
