WORCESTER KEMP MANURE SPREADER. 



POINTS OF SUPERIORITY, 



There have been many wonderful improvements 

 im the Worcester Kemp Manure Spreader since it 

 was first made years ago, and the Spreader of to- 

 day represents the latest type of machine, with 

 every real improvement. 



The most essential feature in tlie con- 

 ■traction of a manure spreader is strength, 

 for when it is considered that the coarsest and 

 roughest of manure, as well as the lightest, must 

 lie torn to pieces, pulverized, and distrib- 

 Mted over the surface of the ground in an 

 absolutely even manner, it can readily 

 ke seen that the strain upon a manure 

 spreader is more severe than upon any 

 •ther farm implement and the machine should be 

 •f necessary strength to meet this extra demand. 



Simple construction and fewer parts of best ma- 

 terials are better for the farmer than increased 

 ]»arts and complications. It has been our aim to 

 see not how cheaply we can manufacture an arti- 

 •le, but how good and serviceable we could make 

 it for our patrons. "A chain is as strong as its 

 weakest link," and it has been our endeavor in these many years 

 •f manufacturing the Kemp Manure Spreader to find that 

 "weakest link," and to strengthen every part where the slight- 

 est weakness might develop, and we have no hesitancy in saying 

 *hat the Kemp Manure Spreader of today will meet every de- 

 mand, and delight every user. The Worcester Kemp Manure 

 Spreader is very simply constructed, and is free from all com- 

 plications. 



The most important feature a manure spreader can 

 possess is strength in all ils parts, and when all its parts 

 are strong good work will follow. 



An examination of the Worcester Kemp Manure Spreader will 

 oonvince all farmers it is one of the strongest constructed spread- 

 ers made. , , ^ , 



The timber construction is especially staunch, body of the ma- 

 chine being framed with mortises, tenons and tie-bolts. No con- 

 struction could be better or more conducive to lasting strength, 

 as Is proven by the longevity of our Kemp Spreaders. The sills 

 arfe 2^ inches by 5 inches, which give a firm foundation for the 

 »ody of the spreader.

 Machine cannot be thrown in gear unless end gate is raised 

 safely out of the way of beater, thus avoiding breaking. Will

A WORCESTER KEMP MANURE SPREADER 

 WILL SAVE ITS COST IN A SINGLE YEAR. 



The Worcester Kemp Manure Spreaders have 2!^-inch steel 

 axles, with close-fitting hubs. The wheels are of the strongest 

 construction. 



The rollers supporting the floor are placed very near together, 

 which allows the apron to roll back easily, and thus the load is 

 fed to the beater with the lightest draft possible. 



The Worcester Kemp Manure Spreader has two chains to 

 draw back the load to the beater. This is a very important 

 feature of this machine. With the two chains, one at either side, 

 the apron is always kept in position in centre of body, and the 

 load rolled back evenly without binding at the sides. 



THE CHANGEABLE SPEED DEVICE is very simple and 

 strong. It can be regulated almost instantly to spread 5, 10, 15. 

 20 or 40 loads to the acre, as desired. Special gear for spreading 

 ashes, lime or fertilizers also furnished if desired. 



The floor of the spreader is a revolving apron, which is 

 carried backward by the gearing, bringing its contents 

 against a rapidly revolving beater, which thoroughly 

 breaks up, pulverizes and distributes the manure. It is 

 thrown into gear by a single lever at left hand of driver's 

 seat, and throws itself out of gear when the load is spent. 

 It will evenly and thoroughly distribute all kinds of ma- 

 nure found upon the farm, from the roughest and toughest 

 down to the finest, including ashes, lime and fertilizers, 

 in all conditions, wet or dry, and the time required to 

 spread a load is from V/i to 2 minutes, without manual 

 labor. It is regulated to put out different quantities to 

 the acre. The farmer may know exactly how much ma- 

 nure he is using without the trouble of measuring his field 

 and his manure pile. It can be accurately regulated to 

 spread any number of bushels of ashes or lime to the acre. 

 Two loads of manure applied with the Worcester Kemp 

 Manure Spreader are equal to three loads put on by hand, 

 as the crops will bear testimony. Fields where the 

 Worcester Kemp Spreader is used can be distinguished 

 from all others by the quality of the crops.
