It is crop protection
Not only does a Hoover Digger help to solve the farm labor
shortage but it harvests your crop at less cost. One man with
a Hoover Differ and horses will dig as many potatoes as any
ten men can dig by hand.
The Hoover gets them all out of the groundno waste. Stalks and weeds
arc delivered to one side. The Hoover Digger can be furnished with a picker
at'achment which delivers the potatoes in piles or in crates.
Hoover Diggers rrc built to last. Built al
most entirely of steel and malleable castings.
Elevator rods are offset. Potatoes do not roll
back. This constiuction promotes separation.
Dust-proof roller bearings are used in all im
portant bearing points. Big
drive wheels are vsed.
Write for booklet covering -L
the full line of Hoover Potato
Diggers.
