No. 9 DEERE CORN PLANTER— Edge Selection Drop 



In the Xew Deere E^dgi, 

 Drop Planter a principle is in- 

 urate volved different from that upon 

 which any other drop operates. 

 The kernels of corn are select- 

 ed in a much more accurate 

 and scientific manner, which 

 means a better stand and a 

 bigger crop of corn for the 

 user. This is the secret of the 

 great success which has attend- 

 ed the introduction of the Xew 

 Deere Edge Selection Drop 

 Corn Planter. In the Xew 

 Dreer Edge Drop we have 

 taken advantage of the fact that 

 kernels of corn, while varying 

 in length and breadth, are 

 practically uniform in their 

 edgewise measurement, i. e.. 

 tliickness. Therefore, since 

 kernels of corn have one uni- 

 form measurement, there is one 

 and only one uniform and accu- 

 rate way in which to select 

 them. They must be selected 

 by their edgewise measurement. 

 This is exactly what we have 

 done. In the Xew Dreer Edge 

 Selection Drop the seed plates 

 have cells so shaped and ar- 

 ranged that only one kernel 

 enters each cell, and each ker- 

 nel en,ters its cell, and re- 

 mains, until dropped, in an 

 edgewise position. The cells 

 will receive kernels only in an 

 edgewise posit'on, hence they 

 are selected only bj" their edge- 

 wise measurement, which is their only uniform measurement. It is b}- this means that we secure the most uniform 

 and accurate drop on the market. It has many other features, that cannot be told here. If you will ask for a cata- 

 logue, describing It in full, one will be sent you by mail. Price, Plain, with Check Rower and Wire, $40.00; with 

 Fertilizer attachment, $50.00. 



The N'ew Dreer Drill is simple in construction to a degree never before 

 acqui:-ed in any machine of its class; it has the most acciirate drop ever 

 invented, large hopper of unusual capacity, and the drive wheel is made 

 entirely of steel. 



The frame is made of two pieces of high carbon steel, being well braced 

 to prevent any warping or twisting 



The drive wheel is made entirely of steel, in place of the usual cast iron 

 wheel, and is parctically unbeakable. The wheel is 12 inches in diameter, 



bringing the frame well up from the 

 ground to prevent any dragging of 

 trash. The drive mechanism has a 

 spring eccentric clutch, for throwing 

 the drill in _ and out of gear. The 

 clutch is within easy reach of the 

 operator. Plain, $12.00; with Fertili- 

 zer Attachment, $16.00.
