PETER HENDERSON & CO.-GARDEN AND FARM IMPLEMENTS. 



k 



Planet Jr." Combined Drill, 



Wheel Hoe, Cultivator, Rake and Plow. 



This tool is unquestionably the most popular, as it is the most perfect machine of its kind made. It is unrivalled in design, finish, 

 convenience and capacity for work. As a seed drill it is the same as the No. 2, except in size ; it holds one quart. The tools sent 

 out with each machine are shown in the cut. All the blades are steel, hardened in oil, tempered and polished. The curved RAKES 

 are invaluable in preparing ground for planting and for delicate after-cultivation of the crop, and for covering seeds, etc., etc. The 

 HOES work closely and safely both sides of the row at once, when plants are small, and between them when large, working all rows 

 up to sixteen inches wide at one passage, leaving the ground nearly level. The PJLOW opens furrows, covers them, hills, plows to 

 and from, etc. In small gardens, where a horse is seldom used, it is invaluable for working the coarser crops, such as corn, cabbage, 

 potatoes, celery, etc. The CUI/TIVATOR teeth are admirably adapted to deep mellowing of the soil. Two teeth can be used for 



marking out two rows at once, up to eight inches apart ; and one for marking out rows 

 for sets, plants and large seeds. 



Taken as a whole this combined tool is the nearest approach to perfection for the 

 uses of a gardener, that can well be devised. Its various accomplishments were the 

 result of careful study and mechanical ingenuity upon the part of the inventor, who 

 could never have succeeded with it, but for practical familiarity with garden tools in 

 actual work. Our Net Cash. Price, $10.00. (last Price, 812.00.) 



The "Fire-Fly" 



Wheel Garden 



Plow. 



To be appreciated this little labor- 

 saver must be seen in actual work. Its 

 cost is soon saved in a family vegetable 

 garden, even if but twenty feet square. 



Tire-Fly" Wheel Garden Plow. 



'Planet Jr." Combined Drill with all Attachments. 



By going twice in each furrow, the ground can be plowed up in the Spring ready for 

 planting. Then the tool can be used to open shallows or deep furrows for various 

 crops. Ihese can then be covered with it. When the plants appear above the surface, the little Fire-Fly can be used to plow or hoe away from each side of the row when after the 

 weeds directly in the row have been removed by hand, the earth can be neatly thrown back, and this can be repeated throughout the season, working deep or shallow 'as each particu- 

 lar crop demands at the time. . It takes the place of the horse plow and the cultivator in many gardens, requiring no headlands to turn upon, and it will be found of great 1 " 

 whole gardening season. In many gardens it will save its cost twice a year. Our Net Cash Price, S3. 00. (last Price, $2.50.)

These tools are absolutely indispensable to celery growers. They have now been used 

 two years, and the market gardeners around Philadelphia, among whom the tool was brought 

 to perfection, bought them freely as soon as they were shown in actual use among celery. 

 Several hundred were disposed of within ten miles of Philadelphia the past year ; and during 

 the working season further important improvements were made, and 

 we now offer them fully perfected. The DOT.TBI/E machine hills 

 all rows from the first to the last time, when not planted over four 

 and one-half feet apart. The first hilling the leaf guards are invalua- 

 ble, enabling the operator to throw up the earth beneath all the 

 leaves, so as to make the first " handling ' ' very easy. Slotted knees 

 at the rear make the vertical adjustment easy, while the patent lever 

 expander is a simple and delightful method of adjustment to width. Fig. 10, 

 The SINGLE machine works but one side at a time, and throws 

 harder and higher than the double, and is adapted to all width rows, 

 from two feet to ten. It also has the leaf lifter and patent lever ex- 

 pander. It is more satisfactory for the last and highest hilling, and larger growers need both

The "Planet Jr." Steel Horse Hoe, 



Cultivator, Coverer, Marker, Vine Turner, etc. 



This well-known and popular tool, tho' acknowledged for years past to be the best in the market, has more striking improvements for 1890 than have ever before been added in 

 one year. One admirable new feature is a powerful lever attachment for instant adjustment of width. Another, a quick adjusting device for the handles, regulating the height and also 

 position sidewise ; by the latter avoiding injury to com, grapes, hops, pole beans, etc., and the stepping upon the finished row when making up plant ridges or covering corn, potatoes, 

 etc. It also has the patent parallel frame, interchangeable and adjustable hollow steel standards, reversible blades, sleeved bolt holes, etc. It is sent out as shown in the large cut — 

 a set of 1% inch plates, a furrowing tooth, marker, coverer, leaf lifters, sweeps, etc. can be added. With these combinations, the variety of work performed is astonishing, while the 

 quality is the very best. 



Furrowing Tooth a?id Marker. — Fig. 10 — Is an excellent device for making furrows for seeds, manure, etc., and marking out the next row at one passage, and is also useful for 

 hilling sweet potatoes, etc. Covering Attachment. — Fig. 13. — If the Horse Hoe has a wheel, the roller or rake only is required in addition for covering. The tool can then be used 

 with much satisfaction for covering com, potatoes, peas, beans, etc., and for making up rows for plants. Sweeps. — Fig. 12. — These are made in four widths, 8, 10, 12 and 15-inch cuts. 

 A pair of 10-inch and one 12-inch cut clean two and a half feet. They are much esteemed for shallow and level cultivation, for strawberries, orange groves, cotton, etc., etc.
