ABSTRACT:
A machine for automatically inserting a lath through the stems of tobacco plants while maintaining a fixed spacing between the plants. The spacing can be preset over a continuous wide range. The plants are steered to the point of a spear by a guide which withdraws or advances two arms an equal amount on each side of a spear, thus always keeping the plant centered. The plants are skewered by the spear, which contains a lath in a hollow core, and slid over the spear to be deposited over the lath.
