Offered is an antique single-wheel cultivator / wheel hoe, dating to the late 1800s-early 1900s. This is a heavy, all-steel, human-powered garden and farm implement used for cultivating and weed control before motorized equipment became common. Based on construction details and period-correct hardware, this piece is believed to be an early John Deere-era style cultivator, though no visible brand markings are present on the frame. The blade is stamped and appears original, indicating factory-produced interchangeable parts. This tool retains its original patina, forged steel components, spoked wheel, and adjustable linkage. It makes an excellent decorative display, restoration candidate, or collectible piece of agricultural history. Condition / Flaws (Please Read). Heavy surface rust throughout from age and outdoor storage. No attempt has been made to clean or restore the piece. Pitting and corrosion present, especially on the blade and joints. One joint shows visible wear and corrosion (see close-up photo). Blade is worn and rounded from use. May be missing additional attachments or hardware originally offered. No guarantee of functionality. Full size: see photos for scale.

Deere & Webber Company and they were looking for information on the firm. In 1851, John and Demarius Deere’s third child, Ellen Sarah, aged 19, married Christopher Columbus Webber, a 32-year-old business man in Rock Island, Illinois. After grave financial problems, caused partly by the panic of 1857, and partly by poor management, John Deere turned over leadership of his firm to his 21-year-old son Charles. The younger Deere seems to have brought his brother-in-law, C. Webber into the business as a partner. A correspondent for the Mercantile Agency (forerunner of Dun & Bradstreet) wrote at the time: Webber has some considerable (property), (but) his reputation as a bus. Man is decidely (sic) bad, for tho he may be responsible, he is not prompt to pay – but prompt to collect. Webber died in 1865, leaving Ellen with five small children, including his 6-year-old son, Charles C. Charles Deere went into partnership in 1880 with a man named Dean to establish a Deere branch house in Minneapolis. A year later, C. Webber joined Dean in running the branch house and, about 1883, took over as manager, a position he held for over 60 years. Dean retired in 1893, and the branch house was reincorporated as Deere & Webber Company.

The branch houses set their own prices, and often paid the parent company different prices for the same implements. The branch houses could, and did, routinely sell competing products; For example, Alvah Mansur, manager of the St.
