PETER HENDERSON & CO— MISCELLANEOUS. 



MATTHEW'S HAND CULTIVATOR. 



One of the best .implements in use for weeding between row crops and flat cultivation 

 generally. It spreads from fi to 14 inches, and will cut all the ground covered, even when 

 spread to its widest extent. The depth of cultivation is gauged by raising or lowering the 

 wheel. Price, $5 50 each. 



THE PLANET JR. Double Wheel Hoe, Wheel Cultivator and Double Plow. 



Will do the work of five to ten men with hand hoes, among market garden 

 and root crops, small nursery stock, &c., and is especially adapted to onion 

 culture. With this hoe the operator tends very readily both sides of a row at 

 once, much more easily and closely than he can tend one side of each of two 

 rows. This is an invaluable feature, especially in crops sowed on ridges. The 

 wheels can be set fovir, seven or ten inches apart. It has a pair of hoes, a pair 

 of plows, and two pairs of cultivator teeth, making it capable of every variety 

 of work. It cuts from six to sixteen inches wide, throwing to or from the row 

 as desired. Price $9 00. 



THE PEA1VET JR. SIVGLE WHEEL HOE, Plow and Cultivator Combined. 



It combines in one tool the qualities of the Double Wheel Hoe and 

 the Fire-fly Plow, making the work of gardeu and root crops quite easy, 

 and will be preferred by many to the Double Wheel Hoe and Fire-fly 

 separate. It has a pair of exchangeable hoes, to be used while the plants 

 are small, to throw either to or from the row, a set of reversible culti- 

 vator teeth, and a garden plow. Tne wheel is adjustable in height to 

 s uit any operator. Price $6.00 



HALES MOLE TRAPS. 



This i> warranted to be the best and most complete Mole Trap ever 

 invented, and is superior to all others in the following respects : 



Owing to the arrangements for holding the spring, it is easier to set 

 than any other trap, and cannot "startle" or injure the operator while 

 being set. 



The construction of the trap is such, that it will catch moles when quite 

 deep in the ground, and there being no pin or other obstruction project- 

 ing into the run, there is nothing to frighten or disturb the mole as it 

 passes, and in doing so raises the ground over the " run," (which always 

 sinks somewhat), just enough to spring the trigger, which must firmly 

 rest on the soil over the "run." 



The points of the pins being constantly in the ground, it cannot catch 

 or injure chickens or other domestic animals. 



Cannot be blown over by wind, or injured in any manner by rain or 

 storm, and being made entirely of metal, cannot warp, twist or get out of 

 order, and is light, neat and durable. 



The ground not being disturbed in any way, it can be set very close to 

 the plants without injuring them ; and it can be set touching a wall, fence, 

 etc., without impairing the working of the trap in any way. 



Price $2 25 each. 



HORSE RADISH GRATER. 



This machine will grate from 50 to 60 pounds of roots, 

 large or small, per- hour. Price $0 00 each. 



We can also supply a larger machine (on legs) of 

 somewhat different shape from the above, $9 00 each.
