This is something new in a trencher for the planting of young 
SHRUBS. PLANTS AND TREES, MaDE WITH THREE INTERCHANGEABLE BEAMS. 
Illustration shows beam No. 1, 
Beam No. 1 is the middle breaker type; it cuts the dirt, moves 
it to the surface, and deposits it on each side of the trench, thus 
GIVING AN abundance OF SOFT EARTH FOR BEDDING AROUND THE ROOTS OF 
THE YOUNG PLANTS. ThIS BEAM IS BEST ADAPTED FOR LIGHT OR SANDY SOILS. 
Beam No, 2 is-side delivery type;it brings the dirt to the sur’ 
FACE and deposits IT ON THE SIDE OF THE TRENCH, We USE THIS IN HEAVY 
SOIL WHERE THE PULL IS TOO HEAVY ON THE TEAM TO CUT THE ENTIRE DEPTH 
THE FIRST TIME THROUGH. We MAKE A ROUND WITH THE MACHINE TO EACH 
TRENCH THUS DEPOSITING THE DIRT ON EACH SIDE, BUT CUTTING ONLY HALF 
THE DEPTH EACH TIME THROUGH. ThE OLD STYLE TRENCHER PACKS THE DIRT 
ON EACH OF THE WALLS OF THE TRENCH AND IF THE SOIL IS HEAVY OR A LITTLE 
WET IT PRODUCES A HARD SMOOTH SURFACE AND THE PLANTER IS OFTEN TIMES 
HARD PUT TO FIND ENOUGH SOFT DIRT TO BED THE ROOTS OF THE YOUNG 
PLANTS PROPERLY. 
Beam No. 3 is for planting hard wood cuttings direct to the field. 
It drives a trench 3/4 of an inch wide and to a foot in depth: thus 
properly handling the longest grape vine cuttings. 
These three beams are interchangeable and a^ll work on the same 
frame. The cutting depth is controlled by a lever handle operated 
from the seat. Trenchers are equipped with marker adjustable for 
three, three and one-half, or four foot rows, Neckyoke or evbners 
not included.
