I Four- Horse Multiple Hitch in Action. Notice ample spread between horses, and 
'that angle of traces is same on leaders as on wheelers. The only hitch ever 
built that enables lead team to work as efficiently as wheelers. This Is not 
opinion — it is the official rbport of Dr. White, of the Illinois Experiment Sta- 
tion. Eliminates all power waste. 
SIX-HORSE TEAM MULTIPLE HITCH ON TWO-BOTTOM 28-INCH GANG 
PLOW. WILL TURN SIX ACRES PER DAY WHERE FIELDS ARE LONG 
AND HORSES ARE LARGE. 
THE WHITE MULTIPLE HITCH 
THE WHITE MULTIPLE HITCH as now nianufaetnred 
was finally adopted as the most EFFICIENT, PRACTICAL, 
and SCIENTIFICALLY correct method of hitching. 
First, PULLING POWER OF ALL HORSES INCREASED 
by keeping the traces of the leaders and swing teams at 
the same angle as the traces of the wheel team. This pro- 
vides for the same angle of pull for all horses so that dis- 
tance from the load will not lessen their pulling power. 
The old ordinary tandem hitch did not provide for this but 
allowed the angle of traces to rise in accordance to the 
distance the horses were from the load, thus making the 
lead horses labor under disadvantages owing to the im- 
proper angle of pull. Result was a considerable loss of 
pulling power. 
Second: ALLOWS FOR SPREADING AND COOLING OF 
HORSES and eliminates the danger of liorses trampling 
each other, especially on the turns. 
Third! DISTRIBUTES THE LOAD EQUALLY TO ALL 
HORSES as the pulley hitch provides for an EQUALIZA- 
TION between teams. Provides for GREATER FLEXI- 
BILITY and makes it impossible for any horse to shirk 
while appearing to be doing his full duty. 
Fourth! FACILITATES DRIVING AND HANDLING OF 
HORSES by employing the method of tying in and bucking 
back .system which enables the driver to control a four, 
six. eight or ten-horse team with a SINGLE PAIR OF 
LINES extending to the leaders only, tlie other horses 
being held in their proper places by a very simple arrange- 
ment of ropes which automatically control all horses 
through the leaders. Which alone respond to the driving 
lines. 
INCREASES PRODUCTION— SAVES LABOR 
THE WHITE MULTIPLE HITCH used as a six-horse 
hitch on a two-bottom 28-inch plow will turn 6 acres per 
day — 8-horse hitch on a three-bottom 42-inch gang 50 
acres per week. LABOR is a big item on the f.Trm and by 
using the WHITE MULTIPLE HITCH you get the greatest 
amount of efficiency from horses and driver.

The only HITCH that is scientifically and com- 
mercially right. 
The only method that makes possible 
PERFECT TEAM WORK 
— absolutely no loss of pulling power. 
Distributes the load equally to all horses — makes 
the pulling efficiency of each horse 100%. 
The farmers that have taken advantage of the 
modern farm implements have greatly increased 
their production with less labor power. 
The "WHITE MULTIPLE HITCH" solves the 
problem of producing more working power per 
day per horse with less effort, at the same time 
preserving your horses. 
The hitch that you will like to drive and that your 
horses will like to work in.

made from rope, equipped with necessary rings and snaps, 
horse unit can be used on a two-bottom gang plow when 
light plowing is being done. In heavy plowing, or in hot 
weather, the additional unit can be added and six horses 
used. Five minutes' time suffices to change from six to the 
four-horse unit or vice versa.
