Planet Jr. Combined Drill and Wheel Hoe. 



Planet Jr. Combined Drill and "Wheel 



Hoe. — The combined machine possesses nearly all 

 the excellencies of separate machines. It is a perfect 

 seed-sower. It becomes a Wheel-Hoe by removing 

 one bolt. It has two pairs of interchangeable tempered 

 steel hoes, one for delicate work close to the plants, 

 leaving the ground level ; the other for throwing heavy 

 furrows to or from the row. It has also asubsoiler and 

 shovel-plow, for deep-stirring and for opening drills for 

 Potatoes, Corn, Beans, &c. Onion growers can sow 

 their crops any depth, width, or thickness, and do also 

 all the hoeing, with surprising ease, rapidity, and per- 

 fection. Price, $15. 



Planet Jr. Wo. 2 Drill.— This machine has 

 given the fullest satisfaction during the past season. It 

 holds two quarts, yet works equally well with a smaller 

 quantity. The hopper revolves with the carrying 

 wheels, preventing all packing and clogging, so usual 

 in upright hoppers, and preserving regular dropping. 

 The covering is done as shown in the cut, the plow 

 throwing the earth upon the wheels, which continually 

 return it exactly on top of the seed, with admirable 

 regularity and certainty. The plow will readily pass 

 fast roots, rocks, or rubbish, without waste of seed, by 

 a slight raising of the handles. It is well adapted 

 for market gardeners and nurserymen, and for field use 

 generally. Price, $12.' 



Planet Jr. No. 2 Drill. 



Planet Jr. Double Wheel Hoe. 



Planet Jr. DouMe-Wneel Hoe.— The 

 Double- Wheel Hoe will do the work of five to ten 

 men with hand hoes, among market garden and root 

 crops, and small nursery stock, finishing perfectly both 

 sides of the row at once. The regular width between 

 wheels is six inches, but it can quickly be reduced to two 

 inches, when working between rows, as in the late hoe- 

 ings of Onions, etc. ; or it can be expanded to nine inches 

 for wide work and advanced crops. Each machine has 

 four pairs of interchangeable tempered steel hoes, and a 

 pair of sub-soilers, and will work in almost any way 

 desired, all rows, from six inches to eighteen inches 

 wide, giving universal satisfaction at work. Price, $10. 



Tlie Planet Horse Hoe and Cultivator,— 



This is a new and most perfect tool for horse cultivation. 

 It is especially adapted to market garden and farm hoed 

 crops, and to Avorking Tobacco, Broom-Corn, Cotton, Bice 

 and Boots. It works to or from the row, leaving the 

 ground level or ridged, as desired, and runs with extreme 

 steadiness, having the desirable property of working safely 

 very close to the row, which, combined with the peculiar 

 construction of the blades, greatly reduces the labor of 

 hoeing. Often saving cost in a day. In final workings, 

 this implement will ridge the crop much or little, as de- 

 sired. It always runs deepest towards the centre of the 

 jow, and in the absence of a suitable plow can be made to open an excellent
