Double Wheel 

 Cultivator 



This is an invaluable implement to 

 every tiller of the soil. It is the best 

 and cheapest made for the cultivation 

 of garden vegetables on a large scale, 

 as one man with it will do more work 

 in a da} r than six with ordinary gar- 

 den hoes. The attachments consist 

 of four cultivator teeth, two rakes, 

 two long hoes and two plows. The 

 wheels being adjustable, both side* 

 of the row can be cultivated at the 

 same time. Having leaf guards which 

 allow the cultivation of large plants, 

 it is indispensable for cultivating 

 beets, carrots, peas and beans when 

 already advanced in growth. Taking 

 11 in all, it is one of the best cultiva- 

 tors made. Price, $6.50.

 lighter than the "Double 

 Wheel" Hoe; having almost 

 similar attachments it is capa- 

 ble of doing nearly the same 

 kind of work. It is furnished

 of curved point hoes, three cul- 

 tivator teeth, one large garden 

 plow and one detachable leaf 

 guard. All the blades are steel
