Cultivators and Harrows s " - > " , r . . ^ The Avery “Gee Whiz,, Cultivators are a highly successful combination spring-tooth, side and “V” harrow and cultivator. On account of its many adjustments this implement has become very popular for all stages of cultivation. The jerky, vibratory action of the well-tempered spring teeth causes the blade to tear up and shake loose all the roots of grass and weeds, leaving’ them on the surface exposed to wind and sun, consequently in a few minutes they, are wilted and done for. and th£ soil is left in a firmly pulverized condition. These Cultivators are made in many styles and are very econ omical in price/ We heartily recommend them.
