Planet, Jr., No. 8, 

 Horse Hoe and Culti- 

 vator with solid steel 

 wheel {as shown in tks 

 cut) $11.50. 



Furrows, Covers, Hills. 



This grand implement is without a peer as a labor saver, and no progressive gardener or farmer after 

 once trying it would be without it for ten times its cost. It is no ordinary heavy, clumsy cultivator, 

 but an implement made scientifically correct and entirely of steel. The patent frame is extra long 

 and two inches higher than other cultivators, the standards being hollow, giving great strength 

 and remarkably light weight; in consequence it is easy for 

 both men and horse to work. The cultivator, teeth, hoes etc., 

 are of the fine.-t possible quality of case hardened, polished steel 

 that will retain an edge; they always scour bright, and will not 

 clog in the stickiest soil; besides, they are so correctly shaped and 

 curved that the operator can work closer up to plants without 

 danger than with any other horse implement made, thereby 

 entirely doing away with the usual finishing up with a hand 

 hoe. As set in the illustration, the two forward cultivator teeth 

 loosen the soil to any desired depth; the hoes follow cutting off 

 weeds below the surface and throw much or little dirt to the rows 

 as desired, this being quickly arranged by setting the hoes at the desired angle from the plant to the center of the row, as the hoe standards are on an adjustable 

 swivel. Hoeing away from small plants is done by swiveling the hoe standards entirely around. Plain cultivating is done by replacing the three back hoes 

 with cultivator teeth. Furrowing is done with the two hoes or with the back plow steel placed in front of the two hoes. The Lever Expander enables the 

 operator instantly to open or shut the implement and lock it to suit any width or row, and can be worked while the implement is in motion, so that perfect work 

 can be done even in irregular rows. The Level Wheel enables the machine to be instantly raised or lowered and locked at any desired height, while the im- 

 plement is in motion, and is very convenient for changing the depth in variable soils and for raising the teeth out for turning at the end of the rows. The Depth 

 Regulator is worked and set simultaneously with the wheel by the lever-bar; by this arrangement the implement runs steadily and the depth can be guaged instantly 

 and to a nicety while the horse is in motion. The Handles can be quickly set to either side, and the height can be changed to suit the operator. Weight 82 lbs. 

 Price, Planet Jr. No. S, with solid steel wheel (as shown in cut), S11.50.

 Hiller and Vine Turner.

 the valuable features of our one-horse cultivators and 

 horse hoes and is lighter and stronger.

 cultivator teeth, followed by a wide sweep 

 with fingers in the rear, a combination that 

 , w orks like a charm" for level cultivation.

three extra 



teeth are pro- 

 vided; two 

 plows and one 

 10-inch fur- 

 rower, espec- 

 ially adapted to 

 hilling crops

 a new pattern, are of special value in cultivation of all vine crops.

The Planet, Jr., l2=Tooth Harrow, Culti 

 vator and Pulverizer. 



This thorough working tool has rapidly grown in favor among strawberry 

 growers, market gardeners and larmers. The twelve chisel-shape teeth do 

 capital work, without throwing earth on Small plants, and the tool is so conven- 

 ient, durable and strong, the combination of teeth and pulverizer leaving the 

 ground in the finest condition. The pulverizer also enables the operator to set 

 the tool, in conjunction with the wheel, to any exact depth desired, making 

 delicate work not only possible, but very easy, it is invaluable in narrow rows 

 and close work, and is fine for preparing seed beds. The implement is fitted 

 with lever wheel and lever expander, so the depth or width can be changed 

 instantly while in operation; it contracts to 12 inches and expands to 32 inches. 

 The handles can be raised or lowered to suit the driver.
