PERFECTION 



GARDEN 



CULTIVATOR 



Perfection at last. This Xew Disc 

 and Knife Weeder and Mulcher is the 

 final evolution in hand Cultivators. It 

 excels and supercedes all. In it is 

 found the best characteristics of others 

 simplified to the accommodation of the 

 professional trucker or home gardener. 

 A child can work it. It has no attach- 

 ments and no encumbrances, is com- 

 plete in itself. It does the weed kill- 

 ing, cultivating and mulching at one pro- 

 cess. This is something that no other 

 cultivator accomplishes. It is a per- 

 fect hand cultivator. 



Th< 



Xo attachments are necessary to make 

 it do the work needed. By a simple 

 changing of the bolts it automatically 

 adjusts to suit the occasion. It can be 

 worked in gravel soil, through sticks 

 and coarse straw or stubble of any 

 kind. In stony land it works as well 

 as in the softest loam.__ 



For thirty years a satisfactory hand cultivator has been sought for; improvements, combinations 

 and auxiliaries have been added to the older makes without resulting in complete satisfaction. In this 

 new weeder, however, the defects have been overcome and satisfactory work is the result. 



PERFECTION GARDEN CULTIVATOR is made in three sizes, viz: Xo. 1—6 inches wide. Xo. 

 2 — 8Y2 inches wide. Xo. 3 — 11 inches wide. The Xo. 2 is the popular tool for gardens.
