The "Hew Model" Seed Drill. 



One of the most perfect Drills in America. 



PRICE, 



$6.50 



pHE record of the "New Model" has been so entirely satisfactory, and 

 its place as one of the leading drills has become so firmly established 

 that we are almost tempted to discard the term "New." It is surprising: 

 to see how quickly it has been adopted by the seedsmen and market gar- 

 deners as an old friend. 



REGULATION OF DISCHARGE.— Drills of similar construction 

 are usually provided with a series of holes of varying sizes through 

 which the seed is passed, which, of course, do not always give an opening 

 of the exact size required. As will be readily seen, by reference to the 

 sectional cut shown, this adjustment is accomplished in a very simple 

 and effective manner by use of a slide with a pear-shaped opening, pass- 

 ing under the bottom of the seed resorvoir, which is provided with a per- 

 foration of similar shape in a reversed position. This slide can be in- 

 stantly adjusted to size indicated by Index, or to a hair-breadth varia- 

 tion between— a vital point in a perfect seed drill. 



INDEX. — As shown by enlarged cut the Index or Indicator is 

 plain, convenient and reliable. It is placed in open sight immediately 

 under the eye of the operator, and. as stated above, can be quickly ad- 

 justed to the slighest variation desired. As the names of the principal 

 seeds are plainly shown on the Index itself, it is not necessary to refer 

 to any table of reference. 



CUT-OFF.— The flow of seed can be instantly stopped by a swinging cut-off, conveniently operated by a cord 

 and ring on handle. This cut-off prevents all loss of seed at end of rows, and its swinging or gravity form will be 

 found far preferable to one that slides under, as it can not be jammed by the falling seed. 



MARKER.— Is simple, easily adjusted and firmly held. 



BROAD WHEEL.— The main wheel is of large size and of unusual width, preventing its sinking into soft earth. 

 COVERING ROLLER.— Is attached by swinging frame, enabling operator to roll lightly or otherwise, by vary- 

 ing the pressure on handles; or, as some object to use of roller, it, with its frame, can be quickly removed. 

 OPENING PLOW— Is of steel, adjustable in depth. 

 HANDLES.— Firmly bolted, braced and adjustable in height. 



The Gem Wheel Hoe. 



AN OLD TOOL, BUT NOTHING BEATS IT YET. 



PRICE, 



$4.00 



POURING the last few years about fifteen thousand of the 

 Gem Wheel Hoes have been placed in the hands of 

 Gardeners and in every case they have been pleased with 

 them so far as we know. It is a thoroughly practical tool 

 in every respect, made largely of steel and malleable 

 iron. The Gem is nicely finished and makes a handsome 

 implement. A wrench accompanies each tool.

 Combined. 



PRICE, - - $4.50 



IN these days of "intense" farm- 

 1 ing — with a-liberal use of fer- 

 tilizer and close planting of 

 crops — economy demands the 

 use of Wheel Hoes, not only in 

 the small garden Plot, but in 

 the larger field as well. Econo- 

 my, in the expenditure of man- 

 ual labor, likewise demands 

 that Wheel Hoes shall be con- 

 structed in such a manner and of such material as to 

 insure lightness together with great strength. Or- 

 dinarily they are made of cast iron, and in the attempt 

 to produce a tool sufficiently light, constant disastrous breaks while 

 at work are the sure results. To accomplish the one and avoid the 

 other, the entire frame of the "Jewel" Hoe is made of the best mal- 

 leable iron, making an exceedingly light tool and one pleasant to 

 handle, at the same time giving an almost absolute security against 

 breakages. The "Jewel" is capable of being quickly adjusted in 

 depth or width of working, or height of handles. As shown in cut, 

 it is provided with four slender stirring teeth, each 

 one made of one piece of steel, unexcelled for thor- 

 ough work, especially on hard soil; one pair of side 

 hoes, particularly intended for use among small plants: 

 also a pair of plows for throwing to or from the row, 

 or for opening furrows. The standards of these hoes 

 and plows are of malleable iron— no cast iron. 



THE "JEWEL" DOUBLE WHEEL HOES are 

 carefully made, handsomely finished, and weigh but 

 22 lbs. each complete.
