THE HOOSIER DISC DRILL
IF you would like to increase your crops, sow your seed with a
Hoosier Drill. By far the most important part of any seeding
machine is the feed, and too many manufacturers turn out. drills
with imperfect feeds. The Hoosier is equipped with the only
POSITIVE FORCE FEED on the market. This feed will sow uni
formly under all conditions, side hill sowing included. The driver
can regulate the flow of the feed to the kernel, and none of it is
wasted. Let us mail you our latest Hoosier Catalogue.
THE ROSS MANURE SPREADER
The Ross Manure Spreader is as nenr perfect as any other implement on the market,
not hecause we say so, but because we have the testimonials of thousands of Oregon
farmers to back us. The Ross breaks up the manure very fine and distributes it thick
or thin according to the wishes of the driver. Before we commenced selling it we spent
considerable time examining the different machines, and we found the Ross to be the
lightest, simplest, strongest spreader manufactured. Let us send you our free catalogue
