Tlie Janesville Planter is made adjustable in width 3 feet to 4 feet. 

 .\fter the corn planter was developed jio as to retain a higli aver, se per 

 ci'Dt. of number of kernels that one desired to plant In a liill, the n<Nt 

 step was fo distribute hills according to fertilit.v of soil. 

 This is effecte<l by clianging drop from a lesser to a 

 greater number of kernels at operator's will. 



This quick change'of number of kernels to the hill— 

 2, 3 or 4 — is effected very simply. By operating a small 

 hand lever within easy reach, operator sets clutch si 

 as to turn seed shaft one-sixth, one-fourth or one-tliir I 

 of a revolution, giving 2. " 

 or 4 kernels to hill. See cut. 



The following poiiils iu 

 construction of .Tanesvillc 

 com rlanters sbouUl be 

 noted : 



1. Convertible drop— ed-'e 

 or flat. This feature v as 

 devised to meet the condi- 

 tion where a farmer on oc- 

 casion may not cire to take 

 the time to selsct his seed 

 corn. 



9. Au*oma+ic thro»v-off to 

 wire — ?. feature which Great- 

 ly s'-^ilifies the operation of 

 machine. 



3. Automatic distribution of wire on reel — another labor and time- 

 saving feature. 



4. Chain or gear drive planters with adjustable drop. 



The disk marker is a great improvement on the drag marker usnally 

 employed. 



A steel chain is attached to raising lever in such way that it can be 

 made automatic in the operation or set so thit operat()r releases wire at 

 his will. 



Tlirongh the improved construction It is possible for oi>erator to chaivge 

 from hill drop to drill drop without leaving his seat or even without stop- 

 ping team. A combined fwt drop and drill drop attadiment is placed t" 

 rofkor shaft, which enables operator, b.v simply pressing this lever by the 

 center, to lock valves in planter openinsr and throw clutcli into gear so ii 

 will run continuously and. of course, drill. Wlien used as a foot drop 

 sinipir do not press the lever down sm far. 



Valves on .Tanesville Planter are so placed that there is no possibility 

 of mixing the hills. Upper valve is located so close to seed plate that it 

 cannot get out of time, pnd lower valve is so f-onstructed tliat it ran 

 free itself readily from dirt or trash tliat may get into it. The valve 

 movement ensures your being alwa.vs in check whether you drive fast or 

 slow, and rows will be straight. The force feed takes eare of Increased 

 momentum in fast driving. 



fMiange from ed?e drop to flat drop is effected by simply altering seed 

 plates. Change from Mlline to drilling' is made in- tlirowing dutcli in 

 gear with lever. Lastly, without stopinng team, 2. .'! or 4 kernels may b.' 

 dropped to a hill by operating small band lever within easy reacli. 



A rod rnnning from rear axle to front fr.ime tlirows machine out of 

 gear when raised at ends to turn around. 



Outside of driving gear. ;n every otlier way Xo. 7 Planter is equipticd 

 same as Xo. 5 Planter. 



The Quick Chang-e 2, 3 or 4 Kernels.
