GRIFFITH 



Tlie Oliver No. 78 Tractor Plow is the 



plow which has become so popular with 

 the tractor manufacturers because of the 

 quality work that it does. 



Plowing is the most important and 

 hardest work done on the farm. It is 

 usually done at a time when adverse con- 

 ditions are met with. In the Spring the 

 horses are not in condition and in the 

 Fall the ground is hard and dry. By 

 means of the tractor plow all of this 

 trouble is eliminated. 



In most cases sod or stubble fields 

 should be plowed in the Fall and al- 

 lowed to lie fallow throughout the win- 

 ter. This method puts the soil in good 

 condition for the seed bed in early 

 Spring. Because of the fact that plow- 

 ing is hard, weather hot and other ad- 

 verse conditions, a farmer who has no 

 tractor plow will usually slight this im- 

 portant work. 



Oliver Tractor Plows provide a means

of doing this work in a very easy and satisfactory manner and with a minimum amount of effort. 



Oliver Tractor Plows are designed to do the same quality work that has made Oliver horse plows so famous. They are easy 

 to operate, plow an even depth at the ends of the field and in all conditions will do the kind of work that the farmer wishes. 



Good Work of Oliver Tractor Plows 



Oliver Tractor Plows SCOUr even under adverse conditions. They turn a smooth furrow, and provide a compact seed bed 

 that is free from air spaces. A wide range of close adjustments enables the operator to turn a furrow of the exact depth 

 desired. When opening the field the bottoms can be adjusted to turn a dead furrow no higher than the rest of the field. 



The Oliver No. 78 Tractor Plow is a power lift plow, having features which are found only in this plow. The No. 78 can 

 be changed from a two to a three-bottom plow easily and quickly. When plowing conditions are hard and the tractor power 

 limited this plow can be used with two bottoms. 

 "Under favorable conditions the third bottom can 

 be added and maximum results obtained from the 

 available horse power. 



The levers of Oliver tractor plows are within 

 easy reach of the operator on the tractor seat. 

 When used with a standard light tractor they 

 make a perfect one-man outfit. 



Even Depth Plowing 



A stop device on the land wheel axle controls 

 the plowing depth. By setting the lever at the 

 depth desired the stop will keep the plow work- 

 ing at that depth at all times. The bottoms can- 

 not penetrate deeper. This is of special advan- 

 tage particularly when plowing for the sowing of 

 Fall crops because the even depth assures a better 

 condition of the seed bed. It is an advantage 

 from the tractor standpoint because it keeps the 

 (plow from digging in where the soil is soft which 

 would have a tendency to stall the tractor.

GRITCO PULVERIZING HARROW 



This Pulverizing Harrow will pulverize either light or heavy soil, 

 and do it better than other harrows. The action of the blades is to 

 pulverize the soil and at the same time put the ground in a smooth 

 condition, thus producing an ideal seed bed. 



It produces the work of a disk and spike tooth harrow. It can be 

 adjusted by the use of the lever to any desride depth, and will not 

 drag out the filth, but cut it up underneath where it will rot and 

 improve the soil. 



It is the lightest weight and lightest draft harrow on the market.

a one-horse machine, but has combination pole and

 cotter pins holding the two lever links, drop the links, 

 swing the gangs around and reattach the lever links.
