Loosen one convenient nut to re¬ 
move the share. Tighten the same 
nut, when the share is slipped back 
in place, and share is on tight. A 
lug on the share fits snugly into a 
slot in the frog. Note how the 
strong steel frog extends forward 
giving especially strong support to 
the share.

W HEN you are buying a knife you give especial attention to 
the quality in the blade. Use the same good judgment 
when you are buying a tractor plow. The bottoms are to the plow 
what the blade is to the knife. Bottom quality determines the value 
of your plow investment. Look at the bottoms first. Be sure the 
material, the workmanship and the shape adapt the bottoms for 
handling your soil to best advantage. And consider the reputation 
of the manufacturer of these bottoms. 
JOHN miai 
TRACTOR PLOWS 
are equipped with genuine John Deere bottoms. These bottoms are the prod* 
uct of 83 years of experience in studying soil conditions and building plows to 
meet them. They are the leading reason why John Deere plows have the 
reputation for giving the user the greatest final returns on his investment. 
Genuine John Deere bottoms scour, make thorough seed beds and are long- 
lived. There are shapes and styles to suit every soil condition. 
Investigate carefully the genuine John Deere bottoms on John Deere Tractor 
Plows. Note the shape that assures good scouring, good pulverizing and light 
draft; the special reinforcement at points where wear is greatest; the close- 
fitting parts; and how the extra strong frog gives perfect support to the mold- 
board, share and landside. 
Note the simple, durable, convenient device that makes the shares quick- 
detachable and keeps them close-fitting. You can remove a share by loosen¬ 
ing one nut. Tighten the same nut and the share is on tight. It stays tight. 
In every other feature, too, you will find 
genuine quality in John Deere Tractor Plows. 
The beams are extra strong —there is no time 
limit on the guarantee that they will not 
bend or break. J 
The heavy beam braces are long-lapped and 
are securely joined to the beams with heavy 
bolts and lock washers—the bottoms keep 
their alignment. 
The simple, strong and positive power lift, 
raises the bottoms high and level, and the 
lifting mechanism, moving only when the 
plow is being raised or lowered, has practi¬ 
cally no wear. 
There is great clearance in throat of beam— 
no clogging in trashy soil. 
The hitch is widely adjustable up and down 
and to the side—John Deere Tractor Plows 
can be used with any standard tractor. 
Tell your John Deere dealer to show you 
John Deere Tractor Plows in the size to suit 
your requirements—two-bottom, three-bot¬ 
tom or four-bottom. Remember the import¬ 
ance of the genuine John Deere bottoms on 
these plows. They assure good seed bed 
making. And that’s what you’re after when 
you operate your tractor plowing outfit.
