GOOD SEED DESERVES INOCULATION—USE McQUEEN’S 
HARDY SOHi BACTERIA FOR ALL LEGUMES 
Crop Increasing: Soil Enriching: 
NITRROGEN, one of the elements existing in a free state in 
the air, is necessary in the soil for all forms of plant life 
to thrive. It Is the basis of certain expensive fertilizers 
known as “nitrates.” In a natural way it is drawn into 
the soil by bacteria that thrive on the roots of legume 
crops such as alfalfa, clovers, peas, beans, soybeans and 
vetches. 
These NITROGEN-flxing BACTERIA, as they are called, 
must be introduced into the soil when the seed is sown. As 
the plants grow, the bacteria form nodules on the roots. 
The nodules become filled with NITROGEN that is pumped 
from the air by the bacteria. Part of this NITROGEN 
enters the plant and increases its growth and productivity. 
The remainder stays in the nodules and is later released 
into the soil for the betterment of following crops. 
LEGUMES WITHOUT NODULES ARE SOIL-ROBBERS, 
as they take the nitrogen from the soil instead of from 
the air. 
McQUEEN'S INOCULATOR contains these hardy NITRO- 
GEN-fixing bacteria in concentrated form. Simply mix the 
INOCULATOR with the seed, either with or without water. 
As plant life starts, the bacteria begin working on the 
roots, forming nodules which fill with Nitrogen that not 
only feeds the growing plant but also affords nourishment 
for later crops. 
LEGUME INOCULATION is an inexpensive source of 
Nitrogen fertilizer. It pays even where legumes have been 
grown before. 
For seventeen years McQUEEN’S INOCULATOR has been 
used successfully and profitably by farmers all over the 
world. It is guaranteed to produce nodules on legumes or 
goods will be replaced or purchase money returned.

No. 220 Fertilizer Distributor. 
Planet Jr. 
Saves Time and Labor—Produces Bigger Crops 
The important points to consider about a Fer¬ 
tilizer Distributor are: does it accurately place 
the fertilizer where and as it should be placed 
and does it save fertilizer, time, and labor while 
doing it? 
The No. 220 is a hand machine, which distrib¬ 
utes fertilizer evenly in any desired quantity 
through six adjustable spouts—spreading from 4 
to SO inches on the ground, distribution can be 
controlled by closing the spouts as desired. Will 
distribute from 200 to 2000 pounds per acre. 
The regulating index is located on the handle, 
and changes can be made in a moment. The shut¬ 
off lever is convenient to the handle, and can be 
operated without stopping the distributor. No 
chains, gears or canvas belts to break, rust, tear 
or stick. Price $27.00. 
We can supply two other types of Fertilizer 
Distributors of the Planet Jr. make, for side¬ 
dressing celery and other crops, which cultivate 
the fertilizer into the soil at one operation. These 
machines are built for one horse. No. 230 will 
perform both jobs at once, no fertilizer being 
wasted by blowing or leaching. To insure getting 
sufficient quantity of fertilizer close to the row 
the No. 230 has two teeth located ahead of the 
spouts which open shallow furrows next to the 
plant. They are made to throw no dirt on the 
plants. No. 230 has one wheel and is recommended 
for work on irrigated land. Price $38.00. 
No. 230-A is the same as No. 230 exceptinng that 
it has two wheels and is recommended for fiat 
land work. Price of 230-A $40.00.
