Why 
We Will Let You Use an 
American Manure Spreader 
Free 
It’s just like this. 
You need an American Manure 
Spreader. 
It will double the value of every 
bit of manure you put on your land. 
It will pulverize and break it up, 
so it will mix with the soil easily. 
And it will distribute evenly, so 
every square foot of land will get its 
share. 
The other reasons you will find 
out yourself just as soon as you try 
the Spreader. 
And we will let you try it for 30 
days at our expense. 
We send you the Spreader and prepay 
the freight. You use it a month. Before 
the 30 days are up, you will wonder how you 
ever got on without It. 
The Spreader will practically earn Its 
own cost before you send us a cent. 
We give you a liberal allowance of time 
in which to pay for it. 
And if you shouldn’t find it exactly as 
represented, you send it back at our expense, 
and the trial costs you not a shilling. 
We can afford to make you this offer 
because we know that our American Spread¬ 
ers are well made, on correct principles, and 
that they will stand the Test. 
They represent twenty-five years study 
and experience. Their good points are the 
result of our knowledge of field needs. We 
have developed them along practical lines. 
American Spreaders are carefully and 
sensibly constructed, and they show it. 
We own and operate the largest Manure 
Spreader plant in the World. We turn out 
more machines every year than any other _. ..

manufacturer. Our ample capital enables us

We will tell you all about Manure 
Spreaders, and how to spread manure, so 
that you will be able to select a size best 
suited to your needs—and you have our 5 
sizes and 9 styles to select from. 
When you buy from us you get just 
the kind you should have to do your work 
best. 
We don’t belong to any trust. 
We are an independent concern. 
Write today for our FRKE catalog. 
Tell us how much land you own, how many 
horses you keep and how many head of 
cattle, sheep and hogs you have, and we will 
give you the Government statistics as to the 
annual value of your manure crop. 
We will also send you a little booklet 
telling all about “Our New Selling Plan." 
It will interest you and save you money. 
Ask at once. You will be glad if you do. 
WHAT MR. HILL SAYS: 
Nanticoke, I’a., Dec. 12.1905 
American Harrow Co., Detroit, Mich. 
Dear Sirs:— Enclosed you will find notes, 
duly signed, for spreader. . 
I am very pleased with the construction of 
the American Spreader, ail its parts seem to lie 
made for long service. The work it performs in 
three minutos is better than I have been able to 
do with the fork in 26 to30 minutes and I antici¬ 
pate Its results to be fur ahead of anything I have 
had in the past, especially on the hay-fields, as it 
fines the manure into such small particles as not 
It,) smother the smallest tuft of grass. Your coor- 
te uis treatment and prompt shipment of machine 
lpaveu nothing to bo desired and I have no hesita¬ 
tion iu saying I am a well satisfied customer.
