Hench's 20th Century Steel Ball 

 Coupling Cultivator. 



FIG. 50 



This is a perfect machine for both rolling and level land. 



Pivot axle, easy of adjustment, simple arrangement to accommo- 

 date the machine for narrow rows. Can be furnished either for pin 

 or spring hoe. 



The shovel gangs are coupled in front by steel balls, 1% inches diam- 

 eter, and malleable sockets having larger running surface and no lost 

 motion whatever. This simple arrangement pre- 

 vents the lateral movement so common in this style 

 of machine, so that, if the shovel happens to strike 

 a bunch of grass, it will not glance around, but will 

 cut it out. 



By simply slacking four nuts on the wheel stand- 

 ards they can be moved in or out on the axle, nar- 

 rowing the wheels from 46 inches, the widest point, 

 to 34 inches, the narrowest point, between the 

 wheels. 



Wheels 32 inches high, made of steel, with 2-inch 

 tread, malleable hubs, removable boxes, which can 

 be replaced when worn out. Weight, about 375 

 pounds.

 and is recommended where extremely narrow rows are not cultivated. 



It is made with three, four or five shovels on each gang, making it six, eight or ten 

 shovel Cultivator for rowed crops, with a pair of 1%-inch bull tongues for first cultivation 

 and one pair of hilling shovels for last cultivation of rowed crops. 



«It can be rigged with two middle beams and shovels, making a 12-shovel Cultivator for 

 fallow cultivation. It also can be furnished with Double Row Corn Plan-fcer Atta-ctunetit, as 

 shown in the Twentieth Century Cultivator, Fig. 56 Csee Page 110).
