HOWARD'S EXPANDING DISC HARROWS. mWELVB REASONS why you should buy a HOWARD jn preference *- . to any other make. REASON I.— The HOWARD does perfectly level work WITHOUT A CENTRE DISC. Each gang is coupled UNDER THE POLE, and co can be expanded or contracted. REASON 2.— Each gang has FOUR ADJUSTMENTS under the pole, so that whether the land is LIGBT OR 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 s.— Only TWO BEARINGS, INSTEAD OF THE THREE OF OTHER MAKERS ; these are CHILLED, instead of plain iron. This reason gives SIMPLICITY, LESS PARTS 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 FROM THE SEAT, and there are FIFTEEN DIFFERENT RAKES. REASON B.— The SEAT is well back, and mounted on springs, giving SAFETY and FiASE. REASON 9.— The Front Carriage has TWO SWIVEL WHEELS, each with ADJUSTABLE CHILLED BUSBES. 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 WIKGSD BUT IS REMOVED, the clip revolves, and THE AXLE FALLS IJITO TRANSPORTING POSITION ; so ONE MAN, wheie other makprs require TWO, oan put the Harrow on transports m TEN MINUTES. REASON 11.-Eaoh gang is coupled to the pole by WROUGHT IRON FLEXIBLE HOOK AND EYE, instead of RIGID CAST IRON, as by other mak m REASON'I2 and Last.— To sum up, for STRENGTH, WEIGHT, CULTIVATING POWER, SIMPLICITY, and DURABILITY, the HOWARD distances all competitors. A SIXTEEN-INCH DISC HOWARD WILL DO AS MUCH WORK AS AN EIGHTEEN-INCH DISC OF ANY OTHER MAKE IN THE WORLD. CHARLES EARP AND COMPANY, SOJUE AGENTS FOR MAKLBOROUGH.
