The " PLANET JR." No. 5 Hill Dropping Seeder. 



We all know that a gar- 

 den seed sower that does 

 not drop in hills is fast 

 becoming a thing of the 

 past, tor there are but few 

 now who do not wish to 

 plant beans and corn, 

 spiuach and salsify, car- 

 rots and turnips, parsnips 

 and beets, in hills. All 

 crops that are to be 

 grown from seed and then 

 thinned tp a regular stand, should be planted in hills and at just the distance 

 apart the/plants are desired. The new No. 5 " Planet Jr." drops at 5, 6, 8, 

 io, 12, 16/24 and 48 inches apart, and also in a continuous row. It drops 

 withouyinjury, can be changed from hill to drill or from one distance to 

 another very quickly, and without any changing of bolts. 



Its Dirge capacity (3 quarts), will suit all large growers, and yet it works 

 so uecfectly that it will sow a single paper of seed or drop it in hills accur- 

 ately, to the very last grain. Price, $12.00. 



The "PLANET JR." Single Wheel Hoe. 



This Wheel Hoe is considerably lighter than the Double, but does almost 

 ihesame variety of work, being used mostly between the rows, yet it can 

 be used to hoe both sides at once, while plants are small, by placing the 

 wheel at one side of the frame. All rows from six to eighteen inches apart 

 can be hoed at one passage. Price, $k,50. With the hoes only, $2.75. 



The " PLANET JR." No. 15 Single Wheel Hoe. 



This new Wheel Hoe has a convenient arrangement of the frame, and a 

 very full set of tools. It also has the great advantage of being convertible 

 into a hill dropping and row seeder, by buying the seeder attachment. 

 Price, complete, $(;.00. 



It is also sold without rakes and leaf guard. Price, $5.00. Also piam, 

 having only one pair of hoes and one pair of rakes. Price, $h.00. 



The seeder attachment is quickly exchangeable for the wheel hoe frame; 

 it is identical with the " Planet Jr." Hill Dropping Seeder No. 4, and drops 

 at 6, 9, 12, IS and SO inches apart. Price, $%.50. 



The 



"PLANET JR." 

 Double Wheel Hoe. 



Thousands of farmers and gardeners who own this tool save its cost one 

 or more times every year, for in an onion field and among many other 

 crops, one can do more and better work with it than six men with ordinary 

 hoes. It is invaluable for ail market garden crops. The wheels are only 

 ten inches high, as a high wheel is wrong for a Wheel Hoe, since the 

 wheels are simply depth regulators, not load carriers. 



It will straddle plants eighteen inches high, and finish rows from six to 

 eighteen inches apart at one passage. Price, $6.00. With hoes only. $?.,so.

 drills, covers, rolls down and marks the next row, all at one operation. 

 The hopper holds three quarts. The wheel is thirteen inches high. It i? 

 changed in a moment from hill dropping to drill work. It has a force' 

 feed, sows equally well whether the hopperis full or containsonly apaper 

 of seed, and will not injure delicate seed. Price, $9.00. 



The " PLANET JR." No. 4 Combined Hill Dropping 

 Seeder and Single Wheel Hoe. 



Similar to the No. 5 " Planet Jr." Hill Dropper. As a drill, the points of 

 difference are : First, that it is smaller in capacity, though still of good 

 size, holding three pints, and that it does not drop at so many different 

 distances apart ; however, it drops at all the most important distances, at 

 6, 9, 12, 18 and 36 inches. The drill is quickly detached and the tool frame- 

 substituted. It then becomes the most admirable Single Wheel Hoe of the- 

 " Planet Jr." family. Price, complete, $10.00. As a drill only, $7.00. 



The "PLANET JR." No. 1 Combined Drill and Wheel Hoe. 



This is the most popular combined tool know, and its friends have been- 

 gained by substantial merit alone. As a seed sower it is identical with the 

 No. 2 " Planet Jr." Drill, except in size, and has all its merits, its strength, 

 durability, ease of operation and perfection of work. 



The hopper holds one quart. From a drill it is changed to its other uses 

 by unscrewing but two bolts, when any of the attachments shown in the 

 cut can be instantly attached. Price, $0.00.

 inches. It cultivates deep without throw 

 ing earth upon the 

 plants, and the smooth

 patented depth regulator, which are moved

 pattern, superior to all other forms.

 is always the 

 cheapest.
