needs a manure' spreader are these,
in the words of a farmer who has
devoted much time to correct soil
feedine. 1. It saves disagreeable
and hard work, X It pulverizes and mixes
the manure mass. 3. It distributes manure
evenly over the field, insuring- a good, even
stand of frain. 4. It prevents loss of nitrogen
through fermentation or leaching in the pile
when manure is hauled directly from the stable.
5. Indirectly, the ease with which it can bo
handled encourages the owner to care (or the
manure and distribute it on the fields care
fully instead of wasting it.
I H C Manure Spreaders
will work uncomplainingly for years making
profits for the owners. You will find them all
styles and sizes, high and low, endless apron
or reverse.
I H C manure spreaders are exceedingly
durable, strong, correctly built to stand all con
ditions and all strains they may meet Each
feature has its purpose. Up hill or down or
cutting corners, they spread all kinds of
manure evenly, in a light or heavy coat at
the will of the driver. The beater drive is
strong and simple, beater teeth are square and
chisel pointed to pulverize the manure, and
the large diameter of the beater prevents wind
ing. The rear axle, carrying a large percent
age of the load, insures ample tractive power.
But see all these things yourself at your local
dealer's. Find your choice in the I II C line.
