Bean Harvester Attachments for Farmall Cultivators IIlust. 121. Bean harvesting attachment on Farmall N-406-A cultivator. The vine lifters cost extra. Must. 120. McCormick-Deering FARMALL with Farman cultivator with bean harvesting attachment. FARMALL bean harvester attachments are used while the bean pods are still moist enough to hold the beans. They cut the beans and leave them in windrows. From the windrows they can either be bunched and stacked for threshing with a stationary thresher or they may be threshed with a McCormick-Deering harvesterthresher equipped with pick-up attachment. The beans are allowed to lie in the windrows and cure a day or two, depending on whether they are to be stacked first or threshed with the combine. When cured in the windrows, the weeds are dried sufficiently to be easily separated from the beans in threshing, the result being a clean job. Bean harvester attachments are supplied in two- and four-row— the two-row for Nos. 203-A, 210-G, 221-G and 424-G cultivators; the four-row for No. N-406-A. In Illust. 121 you will notice that the attachments replace the regular cultivator standards and that the units are raised, lowered, or adjusted by the cultivator levers in the same manner as the cultivator gangs. McCormick-Deering Farmall. Lister Cultivators THE lister cultivators for the F-20 and F-30 tractors are the No. F-35 two-row and the No. FA-40 four-row. These cultivators employ a new principle in lister cultivator construction. Each of the units is free to follow its own row, but instead of simply trailing and swinging from side to side from a one-point hitch each unit is held square with its row, shovels and disks meeting the soil always at the correct working angles. The gangs are hitched to a heavy steel angle iron frame, and there is a link parallel with each gang hitch bar which allows the gangs to work sidewise, the front end moving just as much to the side as the rear. Round steel bars across the tops of the cultivators serve as tracks. Each cultivating unit is equipped with a pair of roller-equipped brackets which allow the units to work sidewise on the stabilizer but prevent them from tilting. Thus, each unit is allowed perfect freedom sidewise but is held square with the row and with the ground, assuring a first-class job of cultivation. Each unit comprises a pair of furrow guide wheels, two disks, two shovels with pin-break legs, and a long shield. Spring-trip shovel legs Must. 123.

McCormick-Deering FARMALL pulling a No. 2 tractor cultivator. The Farmall has ample power for this job. THE McCormick-Deering tractor cultivator is a deep tillage implement much in use in orchards and vineyards and where deep seed beds are wanted. It will dig into any tillable soil regardless of conditions and make a thoroughly broken and mellow seed bed. It will loosen the soil to a depth of 9 inches or more. If a plow sole, or layer of hard soil or shale, underlies the seed bed, the tractor cultivator will break it up and greatly increase the moisture-storing capacity of the soil. The cost of preparing potato ground can often be greatly reduced by using this implement. Whether the ground is plowed first or not the tractor cultivator is worked to a depth of 8 or 9 inches, thoroughly loosening the soil and leaving it in a condition that is ideal for potatoes. Those who have used the tractor cultivator in this way claim that they have secured larger yields and a better product. The sizes are 5, 6, 7, and 8 feet. There is a power lift on each side of the machine and both working together assure a square lift. The teeth are in three ranks to give ample trash clearance between them. The standards in the front rank can be separately adjusted for depth. The 5-foot cultivator can be supplied with all teeth adjustable, adapting it especially to orchard and vineyard work. Irrigating tool bars can be supplied in 6- and 9-foot sizes. Other equipment that can be supplied includes middle-buster attachment, a heavy subsoil attachment, a light subsoil attachment, and one in between the light and the heavy, a border-disk attachment, alfalfa points, and spring-release hitch. With border-disk attachment the tractor cultivator is being used with success for terracing pasture land in sections where soil blowing and moisture conservation are a problem. Illust. 131.
