The “Planet Jr.” No. 2 Seed Drill. 
This Standard Drill holds two and a half quarts. It sows all garden seeds accurately any desired 
thickness or depth. It opens, drops, covers and rolls down and marks the next row, all at one passage, 
in the most perfect and reliable manner. Its construction is simple; itruns easily, 
‘and its sowing devices are in no way dangerous to the vitality of seed. It 
will sow a single thimbleful of fine seed with regularity for the distance of a 
hundred feet, Yet it will sow five pounds with the same perfection. The Ss 
continual revolution of the hopper keeps the seed in a most perfect and. loose S. <SSs 
condition, and makes the sowing of difficult varieties, such as Carrot, Parsnip, Beet, ~ 
Salsify, etc., easy and satisfactory. The machine operates without noise, and the 
opening, covering and rolling down are automatic and perfect. The plow is directly 
between the wheels, and therefore opens the furrow at a 
perfectly regular depth, and the covering is also for the same 
reason very accurate. Seeds can therefore be put in very 
shallow with entire regularity, an important point in 
the sewing of delicate varieties. The roller can be 
used to roll light or heavy, or entirely removed. 
The seed index has upon it the names of the SSS SSS 
principal seeds, and the discharge openings can be set in a moment. The combination of the necessary good points 
is so complete that we can assure our customers that it will give them every satisfaction. Our Net Cash

The “Planet Jr.” Double Wheel Hoe. 
Cultivator, Rake and Plow Combined. 
This exceedingly useful and popular tool has this season the extensive outfit shown in cut Fig. 2. 
All the blades are steel, hardened in oil, tempered and polished. The tool is especially adapted to 
save the labor of the Market Gardener, Onion Grower, Nursery- 
man and Root Grower. The changes from one form to another 
are easily and quickly made and changes in depth or width also. 
The tool is light and strong, can be used by man or boy, and in 
much of the most tedious and particular work it does as much as 
siz to ten men with the common hoe. You can hoe or plow to or 
from, cultivate, rake, etc., deep or shallow, safely when plants 
are just coming through the ground, and until they are fifteen 
inches high, and all the time both sides at once or between the 
rows, at the speed of a moderate walk. The Rakes (Fig. 4) level 
and fine the ground for planting, gather stones and trash, cultivate 
plants when small, cover seeds, ete. The Hoes (Fig. 5) cut close 
and clean, killing everything they meet, leaving the ground level. 
: The Cultivator teeth mellow the soil deep or shallow, and are 
useful for marking out rows for plants, seeds, sets, ete. The Plows (Fig. 3) lay out deep furrows and coyer them and hill-up or plow away, as desired. 
The Leaf Guards in front are just the thing needed when hoeing large plants, such as Beets, Carrots, Parsnips, Beans and Peas, enabling you to 
cultivate them perfectly, when otherwise the leaves would be torn off and the plants seriously injured. They are detachable. Our Net Cash
