Craig, Mo., Nov. 17, 1912. 



Schellenger Fruit Sorting Machine Co. : 



Gentlemen, — Your letter of the 14th at hand. 

 Will say in reply A. G. Zulfer of Chicago says 

 rny apples that were packed by the Grader 

 were worth 50 cents more a barrel than the apples that 

 were packed without it, and I wish to say that I would 

 not take a thousand dollars for my grader if I could not 

 get another. I am sure a man could not say enough for 

 your grader — it is all right, and when it suits me it will 

 please any good packer. 



Yours truly, 



J. E. RUNDLE.

C. A. Leedy, Manager. 



Wenatchee, Washington, Nov. 20, 1912. 



Schellenger Fruit Sorting Machine Co. ; 



Gentlemen, — We have used one of your fruit grading 

 machines this season to pack about twenty thousand 

 boxes of apples, and we are all pleased with them. We are 

 positive the machine does not bruise the fruit. We find 

 by using this machine that we can use unskilled packers, 

 thereby solving the packing question. We are also able 

 to pack from a third to a half more with the aid of the 

 machine. You surely have the apple grading solved. Of 

 all the people that looked at our machine at work there' 

 wasn't a single person but what pronounced it a success.

Huntington, Oregon, Jan. 23, 1913. 

 Schellenger Fruit Soirtimg Machine Co. ; 



Gentlemen, — In reply to yours of November 14th, will 

 say that the machine shows no wear any place. It works 

 perfectly. I used it to grade apples and pears. It does 

 its work better than it is possible for it to be done by 

 hand, and one person can grade more than five persons 

 can by hand, and do it better. It is a great labor saver, 

 and growers that do not have one are doing themselves 

 an injustice. Everybody needs one that grows apples 

 and pears in any quantity. 



Yours truly, 



(Signed) J. C. ROGERS. 



Dryden, Washington, Jan. 14th, 1913. 

 Schellenger Fruit Soirting Machme Co. ; 



Gentlemen,. — The grader is a success. I put three 

 thousand boxes of apples through ours this season and 

 we are pleased with it. It paid for itself in one kind of 

 apples alone where we sold the five tier only, as you know 

 we had only to run them through the grader and pack the 

 five tiers — it was a big saver in labor. We would not try 

 to pack without a grader. 



If you ajre in the Wenatchee Valley this coming season 

 I hope you will give us a call. 



Yours truly, 

 (Signed) J. G. PETERS & SONS.
