The New "Planet, Jr." Hill and Drill Seeders. 



FOR HAND POWER. 



A good Seeder is one of the most of important garden and farm implements; with it the seedling may be 

 done in one-fourth of the time required by hand and be done far better, producing a more even crop 

 and with a great saving of seed; with the " hill droppers " there is also a great additional _> 

 "~id saving of labor in hoeing and thinning. 



The new " Planet Jr." Hill and Drill Seeders are the very best hand-power 

 seed planters in the world. Improvement after improvement 

 has been adopted as 

 suggested during an 

 experience of 25 

 years in their manu- 

 facture until they 

 are now far in ad- 

 vance of any other 

 Seeders and without 

 a rival. These seed- 

 ers, at the will of the 

 operator, either sow 

 seeds in a continu- 

 ous drill, thick or thin, shallow or deep, or 

 they may be instantly set to plant any de- 

 sired quantity of seeds at any of the following regular distances apart; 

 4, 6, 8, 12 or 24 inches they open the furrow, drop the seed, cover and 

 roll it and mark the next row at one operation and as fast as a man can 

 walk. The flow of seed may be instantly shut off, thus preventing wastej 

 when turning the end of the row. These Seeders are light in operation^ 

 strong, simple and do not get out of order. 



To illustrate their usefulness, here is a list of some of the seeds 

 of which these seeders will sow in hills or drills:

The New " Planet Jr." Wheel Hoes and Cultivators. 



FOR HAND POWER. 



Wheel Hoes, with their attachments for cultivating, hilling, furrowing, covering, etc., are among 

 the great labor-savers of the age. They not only make the care of all rowed crops a 

 pleasure, but enable a man to care for five times the area that can be done by " the 

 man with the (other) hoe." They are built substantially for all-day work by 

 an able-bodied man, yet they are adapted to the strength of a boy or 

 woman. The Doube Wheel Hoes while they work equally well between 

 two rows of 

 plants, are es- 

 pecially adapt- 

 ed for strad- 

 dling one row, 

 working close 

 up to both 

 sides of the 

 plants, until 

 they are 20 

 inches high. 

 The Single Wheel Hoes are rather 

 lighter than the double, and while the 



wheel can be set on the side of the frame, enabling both sides of one row to be hoed 



at one time, yet they are best adapted for working between two rows of plants. 



The full complement of attachments to either the Double or Single Wheel Hoes 



include: 



The Cultivator Teeth, a fine mode! of best stamped steel used for either deep or 

 shallow stirring and cultivation. 



The Flat Hoes, for surface hoeing, cutting off weeds, etc. The 4-inch are for 

 rows under i2 inches wide; the 6- inch for wider rows. 



The Plows are for furrowing, covering, hilling, etc. They will throw either to 

 or from the plants as set. 



The Rakes are for stirring, fining and leveling the surface and for early cultiva- 

 tion. 



The Leaf Lifters turn aside the foliage without injury when plants are large, so 

 that close work can be done rapidly and easily.
