International engineers have taken hed machine would be as light in'weight and draft as possible; that it would stand up satisfactorily under an reasonable usage; and, lastly, that it~ would do a class of seeding that would please the most exacting grain grower. The design is simple and sturdy. A strong backbone of heavy square steel easily supports the disks and filled hopper. The machine is well balanced and will give uniform satisfaction under all conditions. _. The large capacity steel hopper, fluted force-feed runs, and -chain-driven feed shaft are the s e as those which have proved so popular on McCormick-Deering drills. Power for driving the seeding mechanism comes from the land wheel and assures positive and uniform seed distribution. The. ated lift device operates utilizes a! from the land wheel but three wheels and causes the plow to lift straight up to a high point for ample clearance. Heat-treated blades are given extra strength to resist wear and breakage and do not require sharpening so frequently. It will pay you to investigate this time and money-saving seeding unit.
