SOIL INJECTORS Patz Company, Pound, Wis., announces injectors that place manure below the soil surface where it is immediately incorporated with the soil preserving valuable fertilizer nutrients. Objectionable odors are reduced to a minimum. Patz injectors feature a category H and 111 tractor mounted 3- point hitch independent of tank spreader’s frame and hitch. Flow rate is hydraulically controlled and clearly visible. A pair of adjustable gauge wheels assure uniform depth of injecting. Four sub-soil chisel plows are self penetrating as they lift and open the soil allowing an easier pull. The discharge manifold surrounding a 540 r.p.m. PTO driven impeller is easily adapted to surface spreading, says the manufacturer. Model 40 soil injectors are adaptable to all Model 3200 tank spreaders. 129
