 and profit in this farm-

Uentlemen: — TwoyearsaKoI boujjht one of 

 your Acme Hand Potato Ultrgers auj after 

 ttlvlriK It a short trial iatho lleld, my sons, 

 who were dlir^'lup the potatoes, were so 

 pleased with the Acme Digger tJiat I now 

 Lave rtve in use on luy farm. 



The Acmels just thediirKerweneeded. TTij- 

 like the machine dltigers It dltrs clean, gets 

 every potato In every hill, doesn't scar the 

 stock, and Is not bothert<i by the vines. The 

 men work easily, yet quickly, and don't get so 

 tired as with ordinary fork or hook digging. 



I know from my own experience that the 

 Acme Digger doe's better, easier and cheaper 

 work than any other digger Ihavesecn, and 

 the best recommendation I can give anyone 

 Is that I continue id use it on my own. farm. 

 I am. yours truly,
