COPELAND-TURNER MERCANTILE COMPANY
McDonough, ga.
mr. w. t. McDonald
INVENTS FARMERS' AID.
He and Mr. John R. Smith Are
Marketing Modern Guano
Distributor.
Mr. W. T. McDonald, of Snap
ping Shoals, has invented an im
plement which is likely to revolu
tionize the old way of distribut
ing fertilizers.
The old method has been to
place the greater part and often all
of the fertilizer in the ground be
fore the planting is begun. With
his distributor, the fertilizer may
perform the duty for which it is
made, that of a feeder, and may
be fed to the growing plant as the
latter requires it.
This invention is ingeniously
simple, and is made to fit the or
dinary plow stock and the scrape
or other kind of plow.
This implement has the name of
McDonald Fertilizer and Guano
Distributor, and is fitted to dis
tribute every kind of acid and
guano now used, and without any
additional labor or time, but with
the same operation of plowing the
corn or cotton, and is also a per
fect oat drill.
One of its finest features is the
reversible spout, which with four
distinct positions and any number
of intermediate ones, strews the
fertilizer exactly at any spot de
sired.
The regulating gate can be ad
justed so exactly as to put down
as little as 20 pounds per acre up
to as much as is desireti, and all
much more evenly than is possible
by any of the older methods.
It has a clutch attachment by
which the whole strewing part of
the machinery can be thrown out
of operation while the plow is
being carried to and from the
field.
The driving wheel is attached to
any part of the plow beam by
means of clamps, and is adjustable
to any position in or beside the
rows, and also up and down to

compensate for any pitch of the

This machine is made adaptable
to any plow, is light, strong, and
durable, and with a view to long
life and usage.
This is the invention of Mr. W.
T. McDonald, with assistance of
Mr. John R. Smith. Mr. McDon
ald is a son of Mr. ,1. A. McDonald,
of our county; and Mr. Smith is
known throughout this section as
the skillful machinist and inventor.
While this is the implement’s
first season, all who have pur
chased it are more than satisfied
and highly praise its every feature.
Indeed, it is impossible to make
them fast enough to supply the
demand.
Mr. John R. Smith is the manu
facturer.
They sell for the very low price
of $5.00 each, and may be obtain
ed either from John R. Smith,
McDonough, Ga., or from Mr. W.
T. McDonald.
