Perkins' Potato Planter This is a wonderful invention. A great labor saver. Cheap as dirt. It is very important in planting potatoes that they be placed in moist soil and covered before the soil dries out. Ordinarily the holes a^e made or furrows turned. This the Perkms' Planter does perfectly. If a orse is used, and the soil exposed to the hot sun for a day, the soil soon dries. Next, the potatoes are dropped, and per- haps they are left to blister in the sun. They are then covered up at uneven depths. The dry ground draws any mois- ture that may be left in the seed away from it, and the result is no crop. Moral —Use the Hand Potato Planter and take no such chances, for it drops the seed in*o the moist soil and covers it at the same time. We urge you to give the Per- kins' Planter a trial. They are gems of the first water. Price, $; if sent by ex- press, purchaser pays charges. PLANTING BAGS.—To hold the seed,, as shown in cut, The ** Peerless" Tubular Potato Planter. The 'Teerless" is the lightest tubular Planter made. Its spring closed jaws are specially designed to enter the soil easily, yet open wide enough to drop the largest seed. The dropping lever, or dump, is adjust- able for any depth of planting. It is brac- ed to avoid bending and has a broad flat bottom, well adapted to the soft soils for which the planter is intended. The con- veyor tube is galvanized iron.
