Gonnsen Disc Cultivator 





gp 



There are two reasons for cultivating 

 plants: First, to kill weeds; second, to 

 produce a loose surface over the ground 

 which breaks capillary attraction, thus 

 preventing evaporation of soil moisture. 

 This Disc Cultivator does both; when 

 pulled parallel with the handle, which allows the disc to operate 

 at an angle, it cuts the weeds off just under the surface and turns 

 the dirt over. The dirt may be thrown toward or away from the 

 plants. Thus, by using convex side of discs, the opera- 

 tor may work very close to small plants without injury 

 — to them, and it is this secret of killing weeds while 

 small that makes the kinds of gardens that are pictured 

 in seed catalogues.

The Out-U-Kum Weed Puller 



Does the Trick 



It differs from all other Weed Pullers, most of which 

 either cut the root or grip the weed above the ground, 

 often breaking it off above the root. 



The Out-U-Kum slips down into the soil alongside 

 the weed, loosening the soil on that side as it goes 

 down. 



It then crosses under the root, disengaging it— and is 

 drawn up the opposite side of the weed, loosening the 

 earth on that side and engages the head of the weed 

 above the ground. 



The now thoroughly loosened weed is easily with- 

 drawn, root and all, with little or no clinging soil and 

 leaving a very small hole in the lawn. 



Especially effective on dandelions. Weight 2 lbs. 

 75 cts. 



Weeders 



Eureka. The favorite of all hand Weeders. Three 

 solid steel prongs are set 1}^ inches apart, to allow 

 cultivating between two or more plants at once. 

 Short handle, 60 cts. each. Larger size, 24-inch 

 handle, 70 cts. each. 



''«(, I I Yyj Excelsior Finger. This five short-prong Weeder is 

 KJiAiillllttilwIiM excellent for loosening the soil in small flower-beds, 

 Out-U-Kum etc. 25 cts. each. 



Norcross Cultivator Hoes and Weeders 



Will cultivate closer to plants without injuring them than any 

 other type of implement known, leaving the soil level, loose, and 

 untrampled. The sharp, tapering shovels enter the ground easily 

 and are so arranged, one with another, as to literally tear up every 

 inch of the soil, from 1 to 5 inches deep, as required. Detachable 

 steel prongs, malleable head, extra high-grade handles.
