The grain is distributed by means ol small double spiral feed wheels working

der the hopper these wheels carry the grain upwards to a discharge opening in the cup and orce it out, and with it force out straw.s and other obstructions. It is utterly impossible to choke it, and as evidence of this fact the wheat we have in our sample machine is half chair, and by turning the wheel it is carried through as well as clean wheat.

It will sow any kind of grain, and in any quantity desired. I11 other force feed drills to change the feed you remove one cog wheel and put in another and the cog wheels are loose and liable to be lost. In tlie

the wheels are all fastened to the drill, and the feed is changed by by simply moving a small lever it is done in one second.
