IOWA SEED COMPANY DES MOINES, IOWA. 79.

[continued from previous page]
this will do the work of six men with hoes, and do it with ease. Its great superiority over other weeders consists in the two adjustable rakes, with sharp angular teeth set in an acute angle to the rows, in the shape of the slotted iron cultivator frame, and of the three cast steel cultivator teeth, used in combination, with which the operator cuts close to the rows and takes away all the weeds as fast as he can walk and shove the machine, which leaves the ground as even and fine as a flower garden. Reduced to $6.00.

Comstock's Combined Seed Sower, Cultivator and Weeder--This consists of the seed sower mentioned above, and the attachments which go to make up the Cultivator and Weeder, the same frame, wheels and handles being used for both. Price $10.00. Our Price only $9.00.
EXTRA ATTACHMENTS--FOR COMSTOCK TOOLS.
Hopper and Coverer to make a Seed Sower of a Cultivator... $4.00.
Set of two rakes and three teeth to make a Cultivator and Weeder of a Seed Sewer [Sower]... 3.00.
Extra Steel Plates, for replating teeth when worn, each... .17.
SCUFFLE HOE--This is by far the most important of any of the extra attachments. It thoroughly clears the ground of weeds and loosens up the soil... 1.25.

Ruhlman 's Wheel Hoe--No tool that we have ever sold has given better satisfaction than this. Extremely simple in construction, it is compact, firm, strong and durable, doing to perfection the work for which it is designed. The handles can be raised to suit, knife-blades set to any pitch, and from seven to sixteen inches in width; can be run within half an inch of the row without injury to the plants. One man with this implement will do more and better work than eight men with common hoes. It is particularly valuable on hard ground, where it takes hold of the weeds better than most other wheel hoes. We use several of the Ruhlman Wheel Hoes on our own place and they are a favorite tool with our employes. Price $5.50. Our special price $4.00 each.

The Genuine Matthews Seed Drill--Beware of cheap imitations under similar names. This is a very popular drill among market gardeners; and is claimed by many to be the best in the world. We are using it quite largely on our own seed farms and it gives perfect satisfaction. When in operation it opens the furrow, drops the seed accurately at the desired depth, covers it and lightly rolls the earth down over it, and at the same time marks the next row. In this way it sows, with an evenness and rapidity impossible for the most skillful hand to do, all the different varities of seed. Price $12.00. Our price only $10.00.

McGee Garden Cultivator or Spring Hoe.--The invention of a practical onion raiser, who knew just what was wanted and how to make it. It has two wheels, connected by an arch attached to frames by a lateral spring, enabling the user to almost "finger-weed" the crop, as the knives or cultivators are under such complete control. Price, $6.00.

New Reversible Barrow Cultivator--An entirely new style of cultivator, with very large wheel, making it of easier draft than any other hand cultivator we know of. It does good work, and we are certain our customers will be pleased with it. All market gardeners should have one. Illustrated circular on application. Price, $5.00.

Improved Strowbridge Broadcast Sower.--It sows all grains, grass seeds and everything requiring broadcasting--any quantity per acre, better and faster than any other method. Saves seed by sowing perfectly even, is not affected by wind, as the seed is not thrown upwards. Sows half or full cast, on either or both sides of wagon. Readily attached to any wagon or cart without injury, and used wherever they can be driven. Lasts a lifetime. Sows eighty acres of wheat per day, crop one-fourth larger than when drilled. If you sow any seed broadcast it pay you to have one. Write us for a pamphlet describing it. Price, $20.00. Our price, only $15.00 each.
