The ''Ship of the Desert"—"Planet Jr." Rudder. 
We have not read anywhere that the "Ship of the Desert" required 
a rudder, but certainly we could suggest no more profitable or appro¬ 
priate one than appears in this cut. This "Planet Jr." Horse Hoe 
is extensively used iu Egypt for the cultivation of cotton. In this 
country it is the standard machine for cultivating that crop and also 
corn, potatoes, tomatoes, cabbage and all other crops which are culti- 
uated with one horse. We were the original inventors of Horse Hoes 
nearly thirty years ago, and have steadily maintained our position as 
leaders among the makers of this class of goods.

tors, Spring Tooth Orchard Cultivators, Four-row Sugar Beet Cultivators, Sugar

Husband the fertility of your farm

Strange how a man will take crop after crop off the farm, putting nothing back, and then expect 
to be prosperous. If you handled the manure you have on the farm properly, results 
would be different and you should not need to be be buying commercial fertilizer

Will Double and Treble the Value of the Manure Heap. 
It spreads all kinds of fine and coarse manure evenly; makes no “skips;” does not dump a great 
load in one spot, but covers the entire ground evenly. Tears up coarse and lumpy manure and 
makes it fine. Better than anybody can do it by hand. Spreads lime, wood ashes, salt, etc., equally 
well. With the drill attachment it puts the manure direct into the open drill. Made in three con¬ 
venient sizes. Ask the opinion of anybody that uses one Write for illustrated catalogue

HALLOCK’S Success ££ WEEDER and Cultivator 
Pays for Itself the First Season, say Farmers who have Used It. 
Youngstown, O., May 31, 1899. 
Please accept thanks for your kindness. You appear to be the most liberal manufacturers we have 
ever dealt with. We wish to say that this Is the third year we have used your weeder, aud we are 
very much pleased with it. We used it for corn, 
potatoes, cabbage, tomatoes, etc., with wonder¬ 
ful results. 
We had a good two-horse cultivator at the 
time we bought your “Success” weeder, and 
we state truthfully that we have not used the 
cultivator since, as one small horse and your 
weeder will do more and better work than two 
teams and cultivators. The teams, of course, 
can be used for other work, which means a big 
saving. Yours truly, J. E. Gray & Son 
New Castle, Pa. 
I have been going to write you for some time in regard to the weeder. 1 have had splendid results 
with It this year. Now I will tell you how I used it and what the results were. 
** on lny wh eat in the spring. I could scarcely see any wheat at all, it was so winter- 
“l y “* red wanted to plow up the ground and sow oats. He said there would not be five 
bushels of wheat on the three acres and I thought so myself, but I said, “We will sow Tlmothv and 
on It,” and so we did and then put the weederon it, and we put some stones on ?ho weeder so as

an . v 1 J ,ut °P “y oats. Before I did so my man said to me, “ Wo won't have no oats this year ” 
and I about agreed with him. The field looked as yellow as gold. We had it exceedingly dry here last
