The Planet Jr Single Wheel Hoe, Wheel Cultivator, and Wheel Plow Combined. 
In improving this tool care lias been taken to combine 
extreme lightness, strength, variety of tools, and great ad¬ 
justability. It has one pair of long and one pair ol short 
exchangeable hoes, a set of three reversible cultivator 
teeth, and a steel garden plow. All the blades are tempered 
and polished steel. This tool is pronounced by practical 
men as without an equal in beauty of design and finish 
ease of operation, quality of work, and variety of adjust¬ 
ment, and in this improved form it is, unquestionably', the 
lightest running, the most convenient and practical Single 
Wheel Hoe known. 
The form of the blades has proved superior to all other 
shapes, insuring a forward slanting cut next to the plant, 
and consequent close work without danger, and, at the 
same time, thorough cultivation of the soil. The cultivator 
teeth, in combination with the hoes, enable the operator 
to perform almost every variety of work either in tin* field 
or garden. All rows, from six to eighteen inches apart, can 
be perfectly hoed at one passage. The frame allows every 
desirable adjustment, is uuickly raised or lowered to regu- 
. , . late depth, and the wheel can be attached centrally or to 
either side of the machine, giving the operator the important advantage of hoeing both sides of the row at one pas- 
gage, when desired. Price $<>.00 boxed. 
The Planet Jr. Horse Hoe, Cultivator, Plow and Coverer Combined. 
We have found this popular 
Implement very valuable in 
use on our own grounds, and 
strictly worthy of the high 
commendation that has been 
bestowed upon it elsewhere. 
It is excellent in design, 
workmanship and finish, and 
capable of the greatest number 
of combinations, all of which 
are useful to every farmer, and 
admirable for the purpose in¬ 
tended. The tool, except the 
handles, is made of wrought 
and malleable iron and steel, 
and has the standing clevis 
with locking pin, the stirrup 
clamp, the frame adjustable in 
width, the handles changeable 
in height, teeth adjustable to 
depth or angle, and reversible 
points. The advantages claimed for the Horse Hoe over its rivals are, firstly; in the ease and rapidity of adjust¬ 
ment, of the side hoes to any angle (or they can be entirely reversed) without withdrawing a bolt. Secondly : the side 
hoes are made with a rounding edge, which, when the hoes are set jys shown in the engraving, admit of running very 
close to the row at surface of the ground, while the blade curves away as it deepens without injury to the roots. With 
the machine, as shown above, are sent three extra cultivator points to convert into plain cultivator when desired. 
Price, $10.00, including wheel. By removing the two forward teeth and the rear steel, and attaching in place of the 
latter the covering roller, the machine is equipped for covering Corn, Potatoes, or other seed, covering the seed and 
rolling at one passage. Covering roller, extra, $3.50. Extra sets of five cultivator points, any width from l 1 ., inches 
to 1 inches, $1.25.
