Matches WD Tractor Power
Here’s an outfit that’s hard to beat for renovating
pastures, alfalfa and lespedeza stands, for killing
grass and weeds, and for tilling summer fallow
land ... in addition to seedbed preparation.
This 8-foot field cultivator is automatically
controlled by the WD Tractor hydraulic system—
•i
finger-tip depth control. Wheel spacing — easily
adjusted with engine power — permits s
permits setting of
wheels for stability and even penetration on
rough or rolling land; reduces “gouging” and
“scratching.”
Compact design simplifies work in corners,
small areas and right up to fence lines. Heavy-
duty, all-steel construction.
Now you can have a field cultivator that is de-
signed and built for modern tractor power. Stop
in and see it.

ent leading position of industrial greatness.
All honor to them both on Labor Day and

The moment you step into a Narroline, you’ll
know you’ve found the one girdle design that
actually does narrow your waist, hips, thighs.
See the narrow panel smack over each hip—it
does the trick by limiting the elastic stretch,
subtracting unwanted inches. Sketched at left,
