THE «PLANET JR.”’ 
DOUBLE WHEEL HOE, CULTIVATOR, RAKE AND PLOW. 
This very popular tool has been completely remodeled; is greatly simplified, strengthened, improved, and merits the 
thorough admiration of every practical gardener. Each tool is sent out with a pair of rakes, a pair of hoes, four cultivator 
teeth and a pair of plows. The wheels are adjustable in height, 
and the arch is 14 inches high, thus enabling the operator to 
work both sides of the row at once, unless the plants grow over 
18 inches high; then the wheels can be set to run close together 
and the tool used between the rows. Leaf guards (detachable) 
go with each machine, to be used when plants extend into a 
wide row. This tool is light, very simple, made of the best 
material and highly finished, and nothing can exceed the per- 
fection and variety of work it performs.

SINGLE WHEEL HOE, CULTIVATOR, RAKE AND PLOW. 
In improving this tool care has been taken to combine extreme lightness, strength, variety of tools. and great adjustability. 
It has one pair of long hoes, a pair of rakes, a pair of fowr-inch sweeps, one broad cultivating tooth, a steel garden plow, 
and one detachable leaf guard. All the blades are tempered and polished steel. This tool is pronounced by practical men as 
without an equal in beauty of design and finish. ease of operation, quality of work and variety of adjustment, and in this im- 
proved form is, unquestionably, the lightest running, the most convenient and practical Single Wheel Hoe known. 
The form of the blades has proved superior to all other shapes, insuring a forward slanting cut next to the plants and con- 
sequent close work without danger, and at the same time thorough cultivation of the soil. The cultivator teeth, in combina- 
tion with the hoes, enable the operator to perform almost every variety of work, either in the field or garden. All rows, from 
six to eighteen inches apart, can be perfectly hoed at one passage. The frame allows every desirable adjustment, is quickly 
raised or lowered to regulate depth. and the wheel can be attached centrally or to either side of the machine, giving the 
operator the important advantage of hoeing both sides of the row at one passage when desired.
