“ Pulverizing Harrow, Clod ”

The “ ACME ” subjects the soil to the action of a Crusher and Leveler, and to the Cutting, Lifting, Turning process of double rows of 
STEEL COULTERS, the peculiar shape and arrangement of which give immense cutting power. It does not conform to uneven surfaces of the 
ground (if it did it manifestly could not properly be called a Leveler), but conforms (levels) uneven surface? to itself. The three operations of crushing 
lumps, leveling off the ground and thoroughly pulverizing the soil are performed at one and the same time. The entire absence of Spikes or Spring 
Tectli avoids pulling up rubbish. It is especially adapted to inverted sod and hard clay, where other Harrows utterly fail; works perfectly on light soil, and 
is the only Harrow or Cultivator that cuts over the entire surface of the ground.

“Gentlemen: The 'Acme’ Harrow bought of you, was 
“used by me in putting in order all my com land, part of it 
“being old blue grass sod. It worked splendidly, made the 
“ soil lit for a garden, and did the work with ease to my team. 
“Many of my neighbors saw it work, and will purchase next 
“season. It is the best all-work harrow 1 liava ever owned or 
“ used.” _. n ._ 
“ Sirs: I take pleasure in recommending the * Acme liar- 
“row; it is just what every good farmer wants. I can lit sod 
“or hard day ground iu one-fourth the time and better than 
“ with any tool I ever used. 1 have a forty-tooth, steel-tooth 
“harrow; also, a good Superior Drill, tut the beet farm in i U- 
“meat on my farm is a No. 0 * Acme Harrow. I would not 
“take $50 for my harrow if I could not got another.'’ 
-:o:- 
“Sire: The * Acme’ Harrow T bought of your agent, is all 
“that is claimed for it. I could not have fitted ray wheat 
“ground with any other harrow. I am well satisfied with my 
“harrow.” __ ;o: _ 
“I prepared 400 acres of rice land with my ‘Acme’ Har- 
“rows and must say that I never had my ground so well pre- 
“pared before.” 
“Sirs: I would say, I like it os well as at first. East spring 
“ I found it Hi c thing to fit my Fall plowring fora crop. I have 
“used uo other harrow this season. 1 have let several of my 
“neighbors try it, ami they all agree it is the ‘boss’ harrow. 
“ The soil I have used it on is heavy clay: two or three have 
“bought of your agent after trying miuo. ami others think 
“they will buy in the Spring," 
-:o:- 
“ Gents: I used the ‘ Acme’ narrow I purchased from you 
“hist Spring, on a piece of stilt ’ Buckshot’ land well sodded 
“ with Bermuda grass. Broke the land, which was wet, with 
“a sulky plow, rah the harrow three times over and sowed 
“ millet seed. Covered the seed by running the harrow over 
“twice. The clods were leveled down, the land was put in 
“ better condition than I expected. The stand of millet was 
“ very fine, and the yield very good. The above was the 
“ roughest piece of land I ever prepared for small grain.” 
-:o:- 
“I prepare my Potato ground with the ‘Acme’—then 
“after furrowing out and dropping the seed. I cover with the 
“‘Acme.’ It is the best Potato eoverer iu the world, and 
“will pay for itself on a ten-acre potato field in one season.” 
“ Sirs: I used a No. 6 1 Acme’ ou 14 acres of sod for coni. 
“ fitted the ground in one-fourth the time and better than I 
“could with any other harrow I ever saw I used it to put in 
“ a part of mv wheat; the wheat was covered better and looks 
“better at this date than the rest of the field that was drilled 
“and phosphated. The Acme’ is the best harrow and 
“ leveler, and clod crusher I ever saw.” 
-:o:- 
“Gentlemen: I bought one of your ‘Acme’ Harrows and 
“ Pulverizers last Spring, and worked it on new inverted sod, 
“ putting in fiax. It worked like a charm, and is all that is 
“ claimed for it. The soil was a black, sandy loam with some 
“ stone and gravel in it. Three times going over new break- 
“ing makes a fine seed-bed. Every farmer should have 
“ one.” 
-:o:- 
“ I would not swap the ‘ Acme ’ for all the machines I ever 
“saw for preparing sod, and when a machine will pulverize 
“our Minnesota sod (as the ‘Acme’ does.) you can rest as- 
“sured that it will pulverize any sod the'sun ever shone 
“upon.” 
FAIR PLAY. 
If your dealer does not keep the “ ACME ” for sale, don’t let him palm off an inferior tool 
on you by assuring you that he has something better, but SATISFY YOURSELF by ordering one 
OX TRIAL. We will send it on trial, and if it does not suit, you may send it back, we paying* 
return freight charges. We don t ask for 
your own farm.
