PETER HENDERSON & CO., NEW" YORK.— HAND IMPLEMENTS. 



THE J. I. CASE-KEELER HAND POWER SEEDER 



WITH COMBINATIONS FOR 



Hoeing, Onltivarting and. Hilling. 



tirely new machine built on new principles. The King of Seeding and 

 ing Devices, and guaranteed to do all claimed for it. 

 Seeder it sows in a continuous row or plants in hills 6, 12, 18 

 :hes apart as desired and as fast as a man can walk. Irregularities of 

 ill not vary the planting distance one iota. 



plants all kinds of seeds, fine or coarse, will drill celery in the 

 garden or plant corn in the field. It successfully handles beans, cab- 

 bage, carrot, lettuce, onions, parsnip, peas, spinach, turnip, clover, oats, 

 sorgum, timothy, wheat, etc., etc. It will plant cucumber and melon, 

 scattering the seeds in each hill six inches if desired. It never falters 

 with beet or salsify, and is the only practical tool for planting 

 delinted cotton seed. No friction nor injury is done to the 

 most delicate seeds. It deposits every one in the ground 

 without a break, scrape, split, or bruise. 



It sows or 

 plants at any 

 desired depth, 



opens the fur- 

 row, drops the 

 seed, covers it, 

 rolls it and marks 

 out the next row, 

 all in one opera- 

 tion. The seed is 

 put in the ground 

 evenly and in a 

 perfect row, insur- 

 ing a good stand 

 and facilitating 

 close and quick 

 cultivation. 



It can be wheeled without loss of seed from one row to another or for any distance. 



It SOWS with absolute regularity and certainty with either a large or small quantity of seed in the hopper. 

 Each s:ed bucket as it revolves brings up its alloted quantity of seed to the operator's view before the discharge. 

 With this seeder you need not have that feeling of doubt as to how many rows have been gone over since the seed 

 ran out. 



Specially prepared ground is not necessary, for this machine works as well on rough farm land as in the 

 best tilled garden soil. 

 It is very durable and will last for years, the working parts being of brass and cast zinc will not rust. 

 It is very simple— cannot get out of order. The changes can be made in half a minute and will be understood 

 by a child. 



The Combinations for Hoeing Cultivating and Hilling are not surpassed by any implement made. The 

 two flat hoes work close to the plants and cut off all weeds. The three cultivator teeth follow and loosen the soil 

 two or three inches deep and pulverize it, or the cultivator teeth and hoes can be used separately if desired. The 

 machine is also supplied with two rakes for fine surface cultivating and levelling and two infant plows for throwing earth 

 either to or from the plants as desired and one large single plow which will work from three to six inches deep and 

 is invaluable for hilling up, furrowing, etc. These attachments can be adjusted to different widths of rows and can 

 be operated between two rows or be adjusted to straddle and work both sides of one row. 



The machine can be pushed at a moderate or fast walk, doing the work of six men with the customary tools doing 

 it better and with far greater ease. 



The Seeder is entirely removed while the other tools are being used, thus doing away with the great disad- 

 vantages of all other combined machines, their seeding attachments being stationary and consequently in cultivating 

 making their machines heavier than necessary as well as causing unnecessary wear. 



The Case-Keeler Seeder, etc., will earn double its cost every season. It will sow and plant a 

 large garden in an hour; will cultivate it in an hour, hoe and weed it in an hour and hill it in an hour. 

 Weight, crated for shipment, 65 lbs. Price, $12.00 f. o. b. N. Y. 



THE WEED SLAYER. 



A superior tool for flat hoeing and weeding all garden crops. It cuts from half inch to 

 one and a half inches underground and seven inches wide. It is very light weight (weighs 

 only 7 lbs ) and very strong, being made of all iron and steel and is adjustable to suit 

 either a short or tall person. It does the work of five hand hoes; saves 

 two-thirds of hand weeding as you can cut with safety to within half 

 an inch of the plant without destroying or covering it. It is the 

 quickest strawberry runner cutter known. 



Price, Sfi.85, each, f. o. b. N. Y. 



"WHAT CUSTOMERS "WRITE OF THE "WEED SLAYER. 



"Pays/or itself every day." "Equal to $ hoes in the garden or field." "It is 'the thing for cutting strawberry runners.' 



" There is pleasure and profit in raising onions now. " Keeps the grass front my gravel walks, and is good exercise ." 



"Can do more work with it in an hour than in all day with a hoe, etc., etc."
