THE "VUWEI ^h." SMIOT.U TOOUS 



THESE are the most popular and complete garden tools made. They are known 

 the world over, and beyond question are the most perfect in design, construction 

 and finish, and most practical yet invented. I offer them for '93 more perfect, more 

 labor-saving and money-earning than ever. No wide-awake farmer or gardener can 

 afford to be without them.

 1 !|u rlol|Cl ill. JIU. u 111111 any desired thickness or depth. It opens, drops, covers, rolls 



down and marks the next row, all at one passage, in the most perfect and reliable manner. Its con- 

 I struction is simple. It has nothing to wear out or get out of order, and no stirring devices dangerous to 

 the vitality of the seed. The continual revolution of the hopper keeps the seed in a loose condition, and 

 the Drill will sow a single thimbleful of seed with regularity, or 5 los. with the same perfection. It is 

 especially valuable for sowing onion seeds and such difficult seeds as carrot, parsnip, beet and salsify. 

 The opening, covering and rolling down are automatic and perfect. The combination of necessary good 

 5S points is so complete that I can assure my customers it will give entire satisfaction. Price, $7.00.

 work. As a Seed DriD it is the same as the No. 2, but holds one quart. All the cultivating blades are

 for planting, for covering seeds, and for delicate cultivation. The Iioes work closely and 

 safely, either straddling the row or between the row, working everything up to 16 inches wide 

 at one passage, and leaving the ground nearly level. The plow opens furrows, covers them, 

 hills, plows to and from, etc. The cultivator teeth are admirably adapted to mellowing 

 the soil. The two narrow teeth can be used to mark out two rows at once up to 8 inches apart. 

 This combined tool is the nearest approach to perfection for the use of gardeners that can well 

 be devised. Its various accomplishments are the result of careful study and mechanical 

 ingenuity on the part of the inventor, who could never have succeeded so well but lor practical 

 familiarity with garden tools in actual work. Price, $9.50. 



Tne " Planet Jr." Double Wfieel Hoe, Cultivator, BaKe and Plow ^,wx 



for onion growers, but is the best hoe made for all kinds of garden work. The tool is light and. 

 strong, and one man or boy can do as much work with it as 6 to 10 men with the ordinary hand 

 hoe. The changes from one form to another are simple, and easily and quickly made. 

 The wheels are adjustable in height, and the arch is high enough to enable the operator to 

 work both sides of the row at once until the plants are 18 inches nigh, then the wheels can be 

 set to run close together and the tool used between the rows. The leaf-guards are just the 

 thing needed when hoeing large plants, such as beets, carrots, parsnips, peas, beans, etc., 

 enabling you to cultivate them perfectly, when, otherwise, the leaves would: be torn off and 

 the plants seriously injured. Price, $6.50.

 1 l|C rldl|01 (Jl . rldll) UUUU1C I! IIOCl PUG just described, except that it has no attach- 

 ments except one pair of hoes. It is just the thing for onion growers and others who want a 

 hoe only, and at a small cost. Price, $4.00. 



Tne "Planet Jr." Single Wneel floe, Cultivator, Bake and Plow S£ &3£ 



Wheel Hoe made, and combines great strength, ease of running, simplicity, and variety 

 of attachments. The wheel is readily raised or lowered, and can be attached at one side 

 of the frame so that one can cultivate both sides of a row of small plants at one passage. 

 All rows from 6 to 18 inches apart can be perfectly hoed at one passage, and this tool, 

 although not as well adapted to large fields of garden crops as the Double Wheel Hoe, is 

 still a great favorite with many for that class of work. For the home vegetable garden it 

 is exactly what is needed for the easy cultivation of crops without the aid of a horse. Its- 

 lightness, strength and simplicity recommend it to all Price, $5.00. 



The "Fire-Fly" Garden Plotigh 



The cost of this tool is soon saved in a family 

 vegetable garden, even if but 20 feet square. In 

 many gardens it will save its cost twice a year. 

 The ground can be ploughed up with it in the 

 Spring for planting ; the tool can then be used for 

 opening shallow or deep furrows for various crops, 

 and covering the seed, and used for after-cultiva- 

 tion during the late season. Price, $2.15. 



The "Planet Jr," All-Steel Horse Hoe and Cultivator Combined with Wheel, 



This machine is the standard in this- 

 line, and needs no introduction, as its repu- 

 tation is world-wide. It is unquestionably 

 the best machine on the market, and is in- 

 valuable in working corn, potatoes, cotton, 

 grapes, hops, beans, peas, and all crops re- 

 quiring similar cultivation. It can be 

 opened or closed in an instant by means of 

 its Lever Expander, and the depth in- 

 stantly changed by raising; or lowering the 

 wheel. The Lever Wheel is a new feature, 

 and is a great convenience. No farmer 

 'can afford to be without this tool. Price, 

 complete, $9.00. 



The " Planet Jr," Combined Hill-Dropping and Fertilizer Drill. 



This tool is also new for 1S93. and as a drill is exactly the same as the machine described 

 opposite. The fertilizer hopper holds one peck. The fertilizer can be sown either above or below 

 the seed as desired, by setting that plow deeper or shallower than the other. The drills may be 

 satisfactorily used also to sow either seed or fertilizer alone. The amount sown is regulated 

 accurately by the dials, and the discharge of both may be stopped and started in- 

 stantly, either separately or together, thus avoiding all loss at the ends of the 

 row. Like the plain hill-dropping drill, it does not sow when drawn back- 

 ward, and can be quickly thrown entirely out of gear. This machine "ill 

 be a great boon to all farmers and market gardeners. It is thoroughly 

 well made, and guaranteed to do satisfactory work. List price, |18.00.

The "Planet Jr." flill-Dropping Seed Drill. 



This is the newest member of the "Planet Jr." family, and just perfected. It is the most 

 reliable and accurate seed sower on the market. Has two carrying wheels, 15 inches high and 

 6 inches apart, and a force feed. The hopper holds two quarts; the plow runs any depth from 

 % inch to 2 inches. The hill dropping device is most admirable in construction and operation, 

 dropping in hills as desired, either 4, 6, 8, or 12 inches apart. The names of the seeds are clearly 

 shown on a neat dial at the top of the handles. The size of the discharge opening 

 " 1 regulated there with the greatest accuracy by a thumbscrew, and the discharge 

 stopped or started in an instant by finger or thumb without changing the 

 position of the hand3. The tool may be altered from a drill sower to a 

 hill dropper, or the reverse, in a moment. It has a complete marker, 

 does not sow when going backward, can be thrown entirely out 

 of gear in a moment, and is altogether the most practical and 

 accurate seed sower we have ever 

 offered. Price, $10.00.
