The Accurate Drop
Corn Planter.

The real reason ior using corn
planter is to save time. However,
IL the planter is not accurate, 1t
would pay better to plant by hand
Accuracy in a corn planter means
uniform drop-the desired number
OF kernels in each and every hill.
II the planter is not accurate, loss
in yield will result
Accuracy in planting has been the
main object in designing the John
Deere No. 800 Corn Planter. The
advantage of using this planter is
that with proper handling it will
plant two, three or four kernels in
the hill. as desired. Every one of
these machines is rigidly inspected
before leaving the factory. "'t'
The seed-dropping device on this
planter is an improvement over all
other seed-dropping devices. The
John Deere No. 999 is equipped with
John Deere Natural Cell Fill, Edge
Delivery Seed Plates. The surface
of the hopper bottom and the open.
ings to the seed cells are oblique or
sloping. The weight of the corn in
the hopper causes the seed to move
toward and enter the cells of the
seed plate in its natural position.
The kernels do not have to be tipped
on edge, and, therefore, each cell is
filled readily.
The Full Variable Drop Planter
The John Deere No. 999 Planter
has a variable drop consisting of
train Of gears constantly in mesh.
With this device, two. three or four
Kernels can be planted as desired
merely by shifting the foot lever.
The gears are enclosed in an oil
tight case. and it never is necessary
to remove them from this case,
which is dust-proof.
The driving mechanism has this
advantage over the ordinary-it new
er~,s separated. Other devices OPEN
The Hartford herald. [volume] (Hartford, Ky.) 1875-1926, 1920-05-19

and close at every actuation OF the
fork by the wire and are constantly
being released under strain, causing
considerable wear and reducing the
life of the most important parts OF
the planter. The device on the
John Deere No. 999 Planter can be
shifted at any time in the travel Of
the machine.
The John Deere No. 900 is real
variable drop planter-it varies the
distance in drilling as we'll as the
number of kernels per hill in hill
ing, and gives a greater variety of
distances without the use of extra
sprockets and plates.
All corn plates on this planter
have 16 cells; therefore, the same
drilling distances can be obtained as
on planters having s, IL and 16-cell
plates, and without the change Of
plates.
Killing or Drilling
Change from killing to drilling or
back to killing is made instantly.
No extra attachments or extra tools
are required. Simply pressing the
foot lever makes the change.
The foot drop provided on this
planter is of special use in hill drop
ping with the foot; also when plant
ing rows at the ends of the field.
Plants Many Varieties of Corn
= Seed plates can be furnished for
handling practically any kind of
corn; also sorghum, milo, maize and
Other seeds.
The improved form of cutoff has
a quick action. The spring knocker
causes each kernel to be discharged
upon the valve without fail. There
are no ridges or distractions in the
valves to catch and hold the kernels
Sufficient opening is left just above
the upper. valve to. enable operator
to see the kernels as they are collect
ed for the hill.
