The owner of every family garden should have a Planet Jr. Combined Seeder 



and Wheel Hoe. 



No. 4 — Continued 



man or boy and are of such shape as makes pushing easy. The tool is simple, and 

 we are told runs only half as hard as some of the old agitator patterns. 



In seeding drop beans, parsnip and spinach, carrot, turnip and onion seeds, beets 

 and okra in hills. Sow peas and celery, cabbage for plants and onion seed for sets, 

 in drills. 



FOR USE AS A WHEEL HOE, the seeding parts are removed and the tool frame 

 substituted by changing but one bolt. It is then a fine single-wheel hoe with an admi- 

 rable variety of tools and a rapid-change frame, with side extension shown in the cut, 

 for hoeing both sides of a row at one passage, all in most convenient form. 



If your garden is small you may break it up with the turning plow, running 

 twice in a furrow and as deep as possible. If large, a horse plow should be used or the 

 ground should be well spaded. As a wheel hoe, with one cultivator tooth mark out 

 rows for onion sets and for plant setting; With the plow going and returning in the 

 furrow, open drills for manure, potatoes, large seeds, etc., and cover with a furrow from 

 each side. During the growing season hoe, cultivate deep or shallow, plow to or from, 

 just as needed. 



THE LARGE GARDEN PLOW makes furrows and covers them, and plows to 

 and from the garden crops, and is constantly useful from spring till fall. 



GARDENERS AND FARMERS, and those having but a family garden, who 

 feel that they "haven't quite enough work for a drill 

 to do" will find this combined tool one of the most 

 useful and efficient of help- 

 ers. With this implement 

 one can do almost all the 

 work in his small crops. 

 In the market garden or in 

 the large kitchen garden 

 alone, it will quickly pay 

 for itself. It does so many 

 different kinds of work 

 that it will be found one of 

 the most profitable tools 

 that one can own. 



THE PAIR OF HOES 

 is the most useful of all the 

 attachments. Use them for 

 8, 10 and 12-inch rows, and 



Shallow cultivation in wide 

 rows, using a pair of 6=in. 

 hoes and cultivator tooth. 

 Finest kind of work. 



Deep cultivation of lettuce. 

 Thorough mulching.
