have them in your heart.” Likewise to enjoy 
the utmost success, you must enjoy the fullest

The old gardener knows that you cannot 
cultivate too often. Planet Jr. wheel hoes 
have made thorough cultivation a source 
of pride and pleasure to careful gardeners 
everywhere. They make experts of the 
amateur and last for years. Send for

Weeds 
are hungry 
They work hard and fast. It’s an end¬ 
less, tedious battle to keep them down with 
the old hand hoe—but this Planet Jr. No. 
12 double wheel hoe gives you a safe, sure 
upper hand. Weeds simply haven’t a 
chance to show their heads. Until your 
plants are 20 inches high you can hoe both 
sides of a row at once, edging in and snak¬ 
ing out lurking weeds with precision. So 
light and thorough is this handy imple¬ 
ment, you can cultivate the whole garden 
in a single evening. You make the most 
of every dry day, and keep the garden trim 
and weed-free with a minimum of hand¬ 
work.
