' “Well, you know, an ordinary planter checks either 2, 3, or 4 kernels per hill—7,840, 11,760, or 15,680 kernels per acre. But suppose your soil’s fertility level requires a kernel population some where between those figures?’’ !®ight now, I’m just out of luck,” he said; "No, you’re not. With the new, high-speed, clutchless McCormick ^population planter’, you can plant somewhere betfreen tho^ 7i 11, or 15 thousand. There are 18 different speeds to pve you any in-between rate. And you can drill or bill-drop to any per-acre population, too.” “Sounds good to me : t and I like the planting units in front, too, where I can watch them and the marker-track at the same time.” “To say nothing of handy fingertip Farmall Touch-Control to lift and lower the pls^ters,” I reminded him. “From now on it’s more corn and less nubbins for me, too.
