ALLEN’S STRAWBERRY PLANT CATALOGUE. 
tTkCUbcwteit Improved 
’Fertilizer Distributor 
A complete practical and attractive ma¬ 
chine, simple in construction.easily under¬ 
stood and effective in operation. It will 
pay for itself the first week in the saving 
of labor alone besides the satisfaction and 
sating of having your fertilizer evenly dis¬ 
tributed. 
I am using three machines and will 
shortly add more. If I could not replace 
those three, $50.00 a piece would not 
buy them. 
FOR TOP DRESSING STRAWBER 
RIES IT HAS NO EQUAL. It distrib¬ 
utes the fertlizer all over the row evenly 
just where you want it and just the quantity you want as fast as a man can 
walk. 
FOR SOWING FERTILIZER IN THE DRILL push the spouts all together 
and your fertilizer is evenly distributed over the bottom of the furrow just where 
you want it and just the quantity you want without waste and far better than 
by hand or with any other machine that I have ever seen or heard of. 
This machine is particularly adapted to the needs of the truck farmer and 
market gardener. It is so arranged that the fertilizer can be applied in any 
manner that may be desired, as the operator has perfect control of the spread 
or division of the same, any change for that purpose requiring only a few 
seconds. 
It distributes the fertilizer in a furrow, beside the growing crop, as a top 
dresser or as a broadcaster to any extent up to a uniform spread of over two 
feet, without removing or adding any parts or loosening a bolt, and in any 
quantity from a very few pounds up to forty or more pounds to the hundred 
yards of row. 
An Important Feature. 
The spouts or channels through which the fertilizer passes to the ground 
open and close like a fan, so that starting with a width of four or five inches 
the spread can be gradually increased to about thirty inches. 
The distributor is light, yet rigid and strong, and easy and pleasant to use 
by man or boy. This machine has been selling for $12.00 but by special ar¬ 
rangement with the manufacturers which will cause them to sell a great many 
distributors, I am enabled to offer this indispensable implement to my custom¬ 
ers and the public f. o. b. factory at the popular price of 
$10.00 EACH.
