The “ACME” subjects the soil to the action of a Crasher and Leveler, and at the same time to the Cutting, 
Lifting, Turning process of double rows of STEEL COULTERS, the peculiar shape and arrangement of which 
give immense cutting power. The entire absence ot Spikes or Spring Teeth avoids pulling up rubbish. 
It Is especially adapted to inverted sod, hard clay and “slough land” where other Harrows utterly fail, and also 
works perfectly on light soil. Sent ON TRIAL to any responsible farmer in any part of the United States.
