NEW JOHN DEERE (Model E) 
Three Beater Type, 
Tight Bottom and Steel Pole 
the Beater on the Axle and the Box-Roll Turn 
The Low-Down Spreader With 
The beater on the axle and the box-roll turn, 
both exclusive features, have made it possible to 
give you these distinctive spreader advantages: 
A low, easy loading box—a real labor saver. 
Lighter draft because of high drive wheels and 
fewer moving parts, combined with roller bearings. 
Better work because the beaters are low down- 
winds will not cause the manure to drift. 
Longer life resulting from simplicity of design, 
and higher grade materials and workmanship. 
The New John Deere Spreader Saves 
Real Work in Loading 
The easy-loading feature on the New John 
Deere Spreader is one of its important advantages. The 
low box does away with high pitching, the hard part of 
loading; it saves work. 
You can load and spread more loads in a day with a 
New John Deere with less effort and thus have more time 
for other duties because of its low, easy-loading box. 
Two exclusive features have made it possible to build 
a spreader with a box that is low from the front to the 
rear. These features are: 
The beater on the axle, which permits lowering the rear 
end of the box, because the axle is not underneath it. In 
accomplishing this desired result, it has not been necessary 
to reduce the height of the drive wheels, neither is it 
necessary to throw the manure over the drive wheels in 
loading. This beater-on-the-axle construction, combined 
with the Box-Roll Turn, which permits short turning with¬ 
out cutting the front wheels under the box, gives you a box 
that is exceptionally low and easy to fill. 
Don’t forget, the New John Deere Spreader is the only 
spreader built that has the beater on the axle and the box- 
roll turn. Both are exclusive features which are of real 
value to you.

THE NEW IDEA MANURE SPREADER (Model 8) 
The Model 8 NEW IDEA Spreader is the latest development of the 
original “wide-spreading” spreader, which was invented by the founder 
of the New Idea Spreader Company.

as that used for car rails. New Idea steel is specially rolled and is still

-m tests show that it is nearly three times as strong as the structural steel 
generally used for farm machines.

bearing steel, resistant to rust and the acids of manure, and will wear 
longer and are more durable than the ordinary sheet steel generally used. 
Wood—The bed of the Model 8 is built of the very finest grade of yellow

while even the finest interior-finish lumber is graded on one side only.
