Ruhlman’s Celebrated Wheel Hoe. 
This superior Implement embraces the four essential points 
requisite for a successful Hand Cultivator, viz.: Durability, Sim¬ 
plicity of construction, Thoroughness in work, and Perfection as 
a plant protector. It is especially adapted to the culture of all 
garden crops, particularly Onions, Beets, Carrots, Vegetable 
Oysters, and all other garden and nursery stock that require care¬ 
ful hand cultivation in the early stages of their growth. It is par¬ 
ticularly valuable on hard ground where it takes hold of the weeds 
far better than the common wheel hoes, which is too apt to slide 
over them. It leaves the earth close to the plant and smooth. 
The Frame and Wheel are made of the best cast iron, the Knives 
are the best cast steel. Boxed, and sent to any address, $5.50. 
Note. —A, the cast steel knife, corrugated and capable of being 
set at any angle desired ; B, the grooves in the casting to adjust 
the knife from 7 to 16 inches ; C, grooved casting to raise or lower 
the handles to suit the operator.
