The New "Planet Jr." Hill and Drill Seeders. 



FOR HAND POWER. 



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

 ^ ' ae in one-fourth of the time required 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 seed planters in the world. Improvement after improvement 

 has been adopted as 

 suggested during an 

 exiperience of 25 

 years in their manu- 

 facture until they are 

 now far in advance 

 of any other Seeders 

 and without a rival. 

 These seeders, at the 

 will of the operator, 

 either sow seeds in a tj 

 continuous drill, 

 thick or thin, shallow or deep, or they may be 

 instantly set to plant any desired quantity 

 of seeds at any of the following regular distances apart: 4, 6, 8, 12 

 or 24 inches; they open the furrow, drop the seed, cover and roU 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. 



To illustrate their usefulness, here is a list of some of the seeds, all 

 of which these seeders will sow in hills or drills: 



Onion for Bulbs, Ruta Baga, 



Onion for Sets, Sage, 



Parsley, Salsify, 



Parsnips, Spinach, 



Peas, Tobacco, 



Pepper, Tomato, 



Radish, Turnip.

The New "Planet Jr." Wheel Hoes and 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) hoe." They are built substantially for all-day work by an able- 

 bodied man, vet 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 es- 

 pecially adapt- 

 ed for strad- 

 dling 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 



wrheel 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 working between two rows of plants. 



The full complement of attachments to either the Double or Single Wheel Hoes 



include: 



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

 shallow stirring and cultivation. _ , „,, . - l . 



The Flat Hoes, for surface hoeing, cutting off weeds, etc. The 4-inch are for 

 rows under 12 inches wi<ie; the 6-inch for wider rows. 



The Plows are for furrowing, covering, hilling, etc. They will throw either to 

 or from the plants as set. 



The Bakes are for stirring, fining and leveling the surface and for early culti- 

 vation. 



The Leaf Lifters turn aside the foliage without injury when plants are large, so 

 that close work can be done rapidly and easily.
