The Seeding Device 



Maithews' 



MewUmversdil 



and Drill Seeder 



IVo- 16 



Is arranged so as to drop the seed continuously in drills or at a distance of 4, 

 S, 12, 16, 24 and 48 inches apart. The adjustment from drills to hills is made by 

 one screw in attaching a brass cut-off to the agitator. The distance apart is regu- 

 lated by the number of cogs on the driving wheel against which the agitator 

 strikes. - The seed cannot drop except when the hole in the bottom of seed-box is 

 _ ^n the wheel, and it immediately closes again as the agitator drops. This saves 

 seed, as no more need be dropped at a time than is desired, no matter what the distance may be. If this implement is 

 wanted, be sure and order the "Hill and Drill Seeder," as the regular garden drill cannot be fitted with the attachments. 

 Price, $8.25. Facked weig-ht, 57 lbs.

 Hoe, Cultivator, Plow, Rake and Marker 



The two wheels are desirable when used as a cultivator or wheel hoe, as 

 in this way the rows of young, plants may be straddled and the cultivating 

 done on both sides of the row at one passing. The special feature of this 

 implement is that when used in straddle row cultivation 

 there is no projection below the frame to interfere with 

 plants. The attachments are — One (1) Pair Hoes, Five (5) 

 Cultivator Teeth, One (1) Pair Rakes, One (1) Pair Plowa

The 

 Marker 



is of a less ex- 

 pensive pat 

 tern, but such 

 as is gener- 

 ally employed 

 on other drills 

 for which a high- 

 er price is asked. 

 It may be set for 

 the various dis- 

 tances, and i s 

 thrown from side 

 to side, being 

 pivoted Isetween 

 the handles. 



W Gem Seed Drill 



It lias ,1 new seed regul.itor for gauging the exact flow 

 of sec-d required; seed cut-off for stopping the flow while 

 turning at the ends of rows, and marker adjuster for 

 marking the rows at any desired distance apart. We do 

 not recommend it for use instead of the larger drills, but 

 we are sure that all in want of such a drill as we repre- 

 sent will find this to be a very valuable implement. 

 Price, $5.75.
