GOES TO MARSHF1E1D l' * M ^ \ g Before you buy come and inspect our Low Spread Manure Spreader. It has H an angle steel main frame, one that does not check, shrink or rot. Built like a steel g“g t __ _____ l ________ i _______: ________I ____ J ___ J - <1 - bridge. T The main axle is placed so that strain is distributed uniformly over main frame. 1 1 BIG BENEFIT BALL * Frame Is N o t Suspended Between A x l e s * 1 here is no danger ol the wheels slipping even when the machine is spreading on hard or slippery ground, because approximately 75 per cent of the weight of the entire load f \ is carried on the main drive wheels. «rs» Drive wheels are 7-'+ inches wide which keeps them from cutting into the loose ground, and makes the spreader more suitable for top dressing cultivated fields, and makes it possible to spread when machines with narrow rims are lying idle. Power is uniformly distributed. Both wheels are drivers. THE LOW SPREAD IS NOT TOO LOW t; c A good practical machine should have at least 12 inches clearance beneath the apron. This is necessary because a spreader must be used in sloppy barnyards, in (w fields that are soft, and among stumps and rocks. The Low Spreader, however is f > constructed so that there is 13 inches of clearance between the apron and the ground. Yet the box is only waist high. l The Low Spread has a return apron with force feed endgate. No racing of apron. No retarding of load. Beater is of large diameter with square chiseal pointed teeth. Levers are convenient. Working parts are simple. NO ENCLOSED GEARING WHICH MIGHT GIVE TROUBLE IF NOT PROPERLY LUBRICATED. hese are only a few of the many good features ot the Low Spread. Call and ex amine it yourself and you’ll be convinced that there is no better machine on the market. 1 MR. FARM ER:—W hy purchase a machine without a reputation? I. H. C.
