THE L. C. EVANS STEEL FRAME COMBINED DRILL AND CORN PLANTER. 



It is the same in principle, with a few improvements, as the L. C. Evans Wood Frame Combined Planter of last year. 

 Usinj^ the machine as a drill it can be changed to drop lo, 12, 14 or 16 inches apart. 

 Will also plant in hills from two to six grains. 



Novel Connection to Couple Front to Back. — The arms coimecting to the boxes on the Plant-beam are slotted so that the 

 Planter has a perfect floating motion, and is adapted to all conditions of the ground. This feature is found on no other combi- 

 nation Planter. 



The machine is adjustable in width, being so arranged that it will plant 3 ft.; 3 ft. 2 in.; 3 ft. 4 in.; 3 ft. 6 in.; 3 ft. 8 in., or 3 

 ft. 10 in. apart. Wheels will run on or off the rows, as desired. 



Special Machines with Covering Shovels.— For localities where covering shovels are desired, we make a machine 

 coupled further apart, for using covering shovels. 



The driver can see the corn dropping from the top of the tube. He thus knows the feed is working properly. 

 Price of Planter, $35.00 ; Planter with Covering Shovels, I37.5Q; Check Rower, $15.00. 



The fertilizer distributor has a positive force feed. Each movement of the drop lever deposits both the corn and fertilizer in 

 such a way that a thin layer of dirt is allowed to cover the corn before the fertilizer is dropped, without allowing the two to come 

 in direct contact. Can be regulated to sow any amount from 100 to 400 pounds per acre. 



Plain Planter, J30.00; with Fertilizer Attach.ment, $45.00 ; Evans Check Rower, $15.00.
