HOWARD'S EXPANDING DISC HARROWS. riIWELVE SEASONS why you should buy a HOWAED m preference 1. to any other nuke. REASON I.— The HOWAED does perfectly level work WITHOUT A CEJXTKE DISC. Baoh gang is coupled UNDER THE POLE, and so can be expanded or contracted. REASON 2.-Eaoh gang has FOURADJUSTMENTS under the pole, so that whether the land is LIGHT Oli HEAVY LEY OR STUBBLE, the ground can be COMPLETELY CULTIVATED m the centre, and at the same time the discs will not choke, REASON 3.— Each disc is fitted with an ADJUSTABLE SCRAPER. REASON 4.-The axles are STRONGER AND SOME HALF-INCH THICKER than other makers. This helps to force the harrow m the ground, and PREVENTS DISCS WORKING LOOSE. REASON 5.-Only TWO BEARINGS, INSTEAD OF THE THREE OF OTHER MAKERS ; these are CHILLED, instead of plain iron. This reason gives SIMPLICITY, LESS PABT3 TO WEAR, LESS ATTENDING AT SMITH SHOP. REASON 6.— The Discs themselves will WEAR LONGER, as they are of BETTER , '. STEEL than can be got by colonial makers. REASON 7.— The RAKE given to each gang is worked by a HANDLE FRO&l THE SEAT, and there are FIFTEEN DIFFERENT RAKES. REASON B.— The SEAT is well back, and monnted on springs, giving SAFETY and EA&E.. REASON 9. —The Front Carriage has TWO SWIVEL WHEELS, each with ADJUSTABLE CHILLED BUSHES. REASON 10,—The TRANSPORT ATTACHMENTS are two wheels mounted on a cranked [axle. This axle is coupled to the pole by a REVOLVING CLIP. As soon as ONE WINGED KUT IS REMOVED, the clip revolves, and THE AXLE FALLS INTO TRANSPORTING POSITION ; so ONE MAN, where other makers require TWO, flan pot the Harrow on transports m TEN MINUTES. REASON 11.— Each gang is coupled to the pole by WROUGHT IRON FLEXIBLE EOOK AND EYE, instead of RIGID CAST IRON, as by other mak *c . REASON -12 and Last. -To sum up, for STRENGTH, WEIGHT, CULTIVATING POWER, SIMPLICITY, and DURABILITY, the HOWARD distances all competitors.
