The New ''Planet, Jr/' Hill and Drill Seeders. 



A good Seeder is one of the most important of garden and farm implements; with it the seeding may be 

 done in one-fourth of the time requiied by hand and be done far better, producing a more even crop and 

 with a great saving of seed; with the ' hill droppers " there is also a great additional saving of labor in 

 hoeing and thinning. The new " Planet Jr." Hill and Drill Seeders are the very best hand- 

 power sfed planters in the world. Improvement af cer improvement has been adopted as sug- 

 gested during an experience of 40 years in their manufacture until they are now far in advance 

 of any other Seeders and without a rival. These seeders, at thewijlof 

 the operators, either sow seeds in a conLinuous drill, thick or thin, shal- 

 low or deep, or they may be instantly set to plant any desired quantity 

 of seeds at any of the following regular dis- 

 tances apart; 4, 6, 8, 12 or 24inches they open 

 the furrow, drop the seed, 

 cover and roll it and mark the 

 next row at one operation and 

 as fast as a man can walk. The 

 flow of seed may be instantly 

 shut off, thus preventing waste 

 when turning the end of the 

 row. These Seeders are light 

 in operation, strong, simple 

 and do not get out of order.

NA/heel Hoes 



Cultivators 



FOR HAND POWER. 



Wheel Hoes, with their attachments for cultivating, hilling, furrowing, covering, etc., are among 

 the great labor-savers of the age. They not only make the care of all rowed crops a pleasure, but enable 

 a man to care for five times the area that can be done by "the man with the (other) hoc." 

 They are built substantially for all-day work by an able-bodied man, yet they are adapted to 

 the strength of a boy or woman. The Double Wheel Hoes while they work equally 

 well between two rows of plants are especially adapted for straddling one 

 row, working close up to both sides of the plants, until they are 20 inches high. 

 The Single Wheel Hoes are rather lighter than 

 the double, and while the wheel can be set on 

 the side of the frame, 

 enabling both sides of 

 one row to be hoed at 

 one time, yet they are 

 best adapted for work- 

 ing between two rows 

 of plants. The full 

 complement of attach- 

 ments to either the 



Double 



Single Wheel Hoes include: 



The Cultivator Teeth, a fine model of best stamped steel used for either deep 

 or shallow stirring and cultivation. 



The Flat Hoes, for surface hoeing, cutting off weeds, etc. 

 rows under 12 inches wide; the 6-inch for wider rows. 



Prices " Planet Jr." Wheel Hoes for Hand Power. 



The 4j-inch are for

The Plows are for furrowing, covering, hilling, 

 either to or from the plants as they are set. 



The Rakes are for stirring, fining and leveling the surface and for early cultiva- 

 tion. 



The Leaf Lifters turn aside the foUage without injurv when plants are large, so 

 that close work can be done rapidly and easily.
