last for years.

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 lt? 
The No. 220 is a hand machine, which distrib¬ 
utes fertilizer evenly in any desired quantity 
through six adjustable spouts—spreading from 4 
to 30 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 $29.50. 
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 plowing 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 $41.50. 
No. 230-A is the same as No. 230 excepting that 
it has two wheels and is recommended for flat 
land work. Price $44.00. 
The Bacon Drill is a Depend- 
The large, heavy drive wheel of the “Bacon” is 
on the rear, which results in three Important points 
of superiority over other seeders which have the 
front wheel drive: 
(1) In working any hand seed drill there is a 
natural tendency to throw considerable weight 
downward on the handles, which results in raising 
the front wheel somewhat off the ground which 
results in spaces of light sowing, or no sowing 
whatsoever. 
(2) THE “BACON” LARGE HEAVY DRIVE 
WHEEL BEHIND will not work into the soil but 
on it, thus running much easier. 
(3) Because of the fact that on the “BACON” 
THE LARGE, HEAVY DRIVE WHEEL IS BE¬ 
HIND, the entire drilling unit can be removed by 
merely loosening two bolts, which leaves the culti¬ 
vator ready for the particular attachments desired 
without any modification of the frontwheel or 
cultivator frame. 
The feed of the “Bacon” drill is the most per¬ 
fect to be found on any drill made. It is adjust¬ 
able for sowing all kinds of seeds from turnip to 
peas. The construction of the feeding device in¬ 
sures an even flow of seed which is a most im¬ 
portant point with all gardeners.
