The seed lie In a straight line at the iotom?all covered the ssnio depth, the depth of planting Is regulated In an In stant. The pressure of the sword in making the V-shaped furrow, packs the soil beneath the seed causing capillar attraction, which brings moisture up to the- seed. The loose erath i)n top serves as a mulch that retains moisture around the seed. In planting with a Cole, the seed fall In a plain sight. None are wasted at this ejtd of the row.

The surplus seed are carried back by the never felling law of gravi tation. Every seed passes up in plain sight, and drops into the spout at the top of the plate right before your eyes. In the picture, you see one grain just falling into the spout, two grains going up In the notches, and three grams tailing back' after being carried half the way. These planters have been used by hundreds of fa rmers during the past three years, and bave proven thoroughly satisfactory, poetical and easy to operate. The Plain View Planter does not plant cotton, hot is made speciality for Corn; Pea-nets, Beans, Pees, Velvet Beans and similar seed. The selection snd dropping of seed Is far more perfect than can be done by any other planter in the world. <- ... ,',>>-, ?-,,. < / . ? ? ?
