I’ve attached two items – a CB&Q planter catalogue page (no idea if it came from the same publication as Hol’s one) and an advert for the CB&Q hay rake. The latter item shows it was manufactured by Chambers, Bering, Quinlan Co. of Decatur, Illinois. There is, however, no “&” between the words so I suspect that the company was hitching a ride on the Burlington’s reputation.

The image below shows both the CB&Q and the IHC logo.  The company mentioned above was acquired by IHC in about 1909.  Catalogs from the company in 1890 indicate they had been selling the planters for five years.
