HAND-LEVER RAKE. 
GUARANTEED TO GIVE THE BEST SATIS¬ 
FACTION.

OF HAY. 
No Manual Labor Required to Discharge the 
Load,

will raKe perfectly the heaviest hay that grows (wet

the clutches engage with each wheel (avoiding side 
draft), which raise the teeth to clear thn hay, when 
they are instantly disengaged and the Hake falls 
back to work again.
