BREED’S UNIVERSAL WEEDER AND CULTIVATOR. 
Early and frequent use are only required to secure the best results. Endorsed by leading agricultu- 
rists throughout the country. Jas. J. H. Gragory, the noted seedsman, in his annual catalogue for 
1891 in an article, “ How 1 Grow Potatoes,” recommended the weeder for the early cultivation of that 
crop. T. B. Terry, one of the best known potato growers and farmers in the west, thus gives his ex- 
perience : 
Summit Co., O., June 10, 1890. 
Universal Weeder Co., North Weare, N. H. 
Dear Sirs : — I have used your Weeder now two seasons. One would naturally think that such a 
light harrow would do little good such a season as this, but it has been very valuable to me. After our 
potatoes were planted it rained heavily and very frequently for about a month. This packed the 
ground very hard, in fact so hard the Weeder could scarcely touch it. As soon as we could see the rows 
we cultivated the field and followed with the Weeder, which hoed the strips along the rows left by the 
cultivator nicely, stirring every bit of soil. There was one outside row too rough to use the Weecler 
on, it beiDg plowed nearer the fence than usual, which had to be hoed by hand. While this was being 
done my son hoed with the Weeder and one horse, and more thoroughly, thirty-six rows. We had har- 
rowed the piece between showers so there were no weeds. We had a shower last night and my son is 
running the Weeder over an acre an hour to-day, doing both hoeing and cultivating as deep as needed. 
I am sorry we have not another Weeder so we could get over all the ground while it is just right to 
crumble nicely. Must have two next year. I have not used the Weeder on corn, except on a little 
sweet corn in the garden. It worked all right there. 
Yours truly, T. B. TERRY.
