    Bob;
    There may be other manufacturers, but the ones we had on out
Farmalls were Russell Weed Controller. They worked well in the
mellow soil in Hardin County, but when we moved to the hard clay
in Union County, they just wouldn't cut through the hard crust.

: Hi --
:
: I SWEAR that, when I was a kid at home, we had several sets of
the
: cultivators shown on this ebay auction:

:
: They were very efficient in cultivating truck crops.
:
: But I'm practically 100% sure the name cast on the frame was
: "Weed-Controller," not  "Culti-Cover."
:
: Have I lost my memory? Has anybody used these things?
:
: I want these for my Cub. Please don't bid against me.
:
: (You will notice that one shank is shorter than the other. It
was
: necessary to shorten the left unit when the cultivators were
used on a
: Cub or an A-style Farmall. Otherwise it hit the crankcase.)

: Best,
