MATTHEWS' 

 GARDEN SEED DRILLS AND CULTIVATORS. 



MATTHEWS' GARDEN SEED DRILE.- We know of no hand- 

 Garden Drill, for sowing vegetable seeds, etc., which has met with more popularity than the 

 Matthews' Garden Seed Drill among market gardeners everywhere. 



It is designed for use in field and garden. When in operation it opens the furrow, drops the 

 seed accurately at the desired depth, covers it, and lightly rolls 

 the earth down over it, and at the same time marks the next row. 

 It will sow Beet, Carrot, Onion, Turnip, Parsnip, Sage, Spinagc, 

 Sorghum, Peas, Beans, Fodder Corn, Broom Corn, etc., with a 

 certainty, regularity and rapidity, impossible for the most skillful 

 hand. 



A valuable feature in this Drill is its patent Indicator, with 

 names of different seeds on it, for adjusting the Drill to sow 

 different kinds of seed, which is done by simply turning the Indi- 

 cator until the name of the seed you want to sow comes to the top. 

 No other drill is furnished with this ingenious device. 



The drill is made of the best material throughout and is com- 

 plete in all its arrangements. Price, boxed and delivered at Depot or Express Office, $10.00. 



MATTHEWS' IMPROVED DRIEE AND CTETIVATOR 

 COMBINED.— The Matthews' Drill and Cultivator Combined has been greatly 

 changed and improved. As a drill it now possesses all the features of the Matthews' Garden 

 Seed Drill of a smaller size. It has the same patent Indicator as that. The Cultivator 

 attachment has also been greatly improved by providing it with 3 

 new set of teeth of an improved pattern, with Steel Blades of the 

 best quality, so that as a Cultivator it is now similar to the 

 Matthews' Improved Hand Cultivator. This machine is very 

 efficient, either as a Drill or a Cultivator, and will be found to be 

 adapted to any kind of soil. Price, boxed and delivered at 

 Depot or Express Office, $12.00. 



We can furnish for the Matthews' Improved Drill and Cultivator 

 Combined, if desired, a pair of superior style Hoes, with long Steel 

 Blades, for use in exchange with the cultivator teeth, which are 



easily and quickly adjusted. Price per pair, complete, delivered at Depot or Express Office, $1.50. 



MATTHEWS' IMPROVED HAND CUETIVATOR.-The Matthews' Hand Cultiva- 

 tor has been greatly improved. It is now made with a larger wheel, and with a larger flange to it. It is also pro- 

 vided with a new set of teeth of an improved pattern, having Steel Blades of the best quality, and as now 

 constructed is greatly superior to what it was before, and is perfectly adapted for use in any kind of soil. 



It is thoroughly constructed throughout, very durable and easy to operate. A boy can do as much with it as 

 six men with hoes. It spreads from six to fourteen inches, and will cut all the ground covered, even when spread to 

 its greatest extent. The depth of the cultivation may be accurately gauged by raising or lowering the wheel, which 



is quickly done. Price, boxed and delivered at Depot or Express Office, $5.00.

GEM OF THE GHRD 



HAND WHEEL HOE AND CULTIVATOR. 



This implement is offered to gardeners and others with the assurance 

 that it is the most effective and convenient tool of the kind yet invented. 

 Its working parts are: two Scuffle or Cutting Blades, one 4^ and one 9 

 inches wide; two Plows, right and left hand; five Stirring Teeth; all made 

 of best steel. 



The wheels and handles of the "GEM" are both adjust- 

 able in height, while the frame is so slotted that the hoes, 

 teeth and plows can be set in almost any position or angle. 

 The Scuffle hoe makes a clean cut and is followed by the 

 teeth — five or less — which thoroughly pulverize the soil, and 

 drag out and expose to the sun the roots of the weeds cut by 

 the hoe. In use, keep the tooth on the right, quite as far out 

 as the end of the hoe, using it as a guard; being of such 

 slender shape it will not throw dirt enough to cover small 

 plants. The hoes, of thin steel, and presenting nearly a 

 straight line to the work, avoid the "dodging" so common to tools of this kind 

 at Depot or Express Office, $5.00.
