THE YORK Improved Weeder 
The flexibility of the teeth is the important thing in a weeder. The York Improved 
Weeder has teeth of square spring steel with round points. These teeth have 
great flexibility, and being narrow in the body they do not whip or bruise the 
ITrm growing plants as flat teeth do. This style also allows more clearance and 
I l prevents clogging. Our square teeth do not break. The frame is made of 
I I strong flexible angle steel and handles and shafts are adjustable. Send for

, you to use. SPANGLER MFG. CO., 501 Queen St., York, Pa. <•!

FAR^cn i W -° ^ ave j us * one request to make of you, namely, that you write us or the editor of your paper, giving 
* either one your reasons why it will not pay you to give this machine a trial. REMEMBER, the editor of 
your own paper fully believes that it will be to your interest to give this machine a trial. What do you take the paper for, any¬ 
way, if not to keep you posted on any subject that will be of benefit to you? Thousands of you have said many times that you 
wished someone would produce a first-class two-horse potato digger, but we have three machines in one—a plow, pulverizer and 
digger. Also keep in mind we are paying out our good 
money just to let you farmers know we have what we 
believe will pay you to use. Now, don’t be among the 
number to say, “No Good”, before you have tested it in 
your own field. All we or your editor asks is for every 
farmer who uses a plow and harrow and needs a first- 
class digger is to give us your name and address.

Enclosed you will find ray check which is to pay for the digger shipped 
to Mr. J. F. Cowell, Bayboro, N. C. He tells me that he is very much pleased 
with the digger and that those who saw his work were well pleased.and that 
lie was sure he could sell as many as thirty or forty this coming spring, and 
that h« would want another for his fall crop. Mr. Cowell says that he saved 
3c per bbl. on his crop, which would pay foi the digger alone. 
Yours truly, W. H. Whitley.

Dear Sirs:—I.ast night we had a heavy shower and this 
morning the ground is wet. Notwithstanding this, we 
got the digger from the depot at 9:00 o'clock and now at 
10:30 wo have it in the field testing it. and herewith is the 
result—my cheek to pay for it, and two more sold, \\ hich 
please ship at onee. If I could have had an idea of what 
was coming with this last proposition 1 could have sold at least a 
dozen. Be sure and save this territory for me for another year, for the 
digger now is right and we can get the trade. 
Yours truly, J. F. Chandler.
