 long been the most popular combined tool made, 

 lentical with the No. 2 '"Plauet Jr." 

 nd has all its merits, its strength, du- 

 tion and perfection of work. 



It has a complete set of cultivating 

 tools, and all its work is rapid, eaey- 

 perfect and delightful. When used as 

 a drill the seed is sown with great 

 regularity and at uniform depth, reg- 

 ulated at pleasure. The hopper holds 

 one quart. From a drill it is changed 

 to its other uses by unscrewing but 

 two bolls, when any of the attach- 

 ments shown in the cut can be quickly 

 made ready for use. Price, $10.50.

Hill Dropping Seedp;r, 



Sows either in Hills or in Contin- 

 uous Row. 



A fine Hill Dropping Seeder, 

 with hosts of friends, for 1S99 it is 

 greatly improved in many partic- 

 ulars. This Drill will sow in a continuous row, in the 

 ordinary way, with the greatest regularity; but its 

 distinctive feature is that it will drop neatly in hills,'' 

 either 4, 6, 8, 12 or 24 inches apart. The wheel is 15 

 inches high, with a bro?.d face. It is changed in a 

 moment from hill droppiug to drill work, sows equal- 

 ly well whether the hopper is full or contains only a 

 paper of seed, and will not injure delicate seeds, 

 such as radish, cabbage, etc., which are so often 

 peeled or crushed by imperfect seederg. The plow is 

 abjustable and opens a very narrow furrow which is a 

 great advautage for after cultivation. 1896 was the first year that this machine was sold 

 widely by the manufacturers of the celebrated line of "Planet Jr." goods, but it has 

 since been bought very largely by careful gardeners and nurserymen and has given en- 

 tire satisfaction. Price, $11.00.
