SOUTHERN CULTIVATOR 
for moulding cotton, in managing Dr. Woodberry’s crop, and think 
too much cannot be said in theu’iavor. 
THOMAS VANCLEAVE. 
INCHUCA, near Yazoo City. June 10, 1857. 
A. W. fVashburn Sc Co: — I have planted considerably over one 
hundred acre.s of cotton with Washburn’s Patent Planter ; and 
have obtained a perfectly healthy stand under most unfavorable 
circumstances. I have also used the Hiller, which I'after I had 
braced tile plows) speedily relieved me from the danger of being 
injured by grass, by enabling me to mould from eight to ten acres 
a day with one hand, doing the work in the most perfect manner. 
It works easily tc the hand and team, effectively and with the most 
beautiful uniformity. In shoit, the Planter and Hiller are unex- 
ceptionable and invaluable. 1 would not be without them iufutm’e 
were the price doubled, G. W. WOlJDBEilRY, 
Yazoo County, Miss,, June 20, 1857. 
A. W. Washburn Sf Co. — Gentlemen : — I nave planted ihe entire 
crop under my management, coim, cotton, and some Osage Grange 
for hedging, with Washburn’s Patent Cotton Planters. I have 
scraped and hilled it with his Scraper and Hillei’, and have experi- 
enced no difficulty in obtaining the most perfect uniform and heal- 
thy stands 1 ever saw. I have had no lice or any other disease com- 
toion to young cotton. 
I have no hesitation in pronouncing Washburn’s Planters, and 
Combined Scraper and Hiller the most valuable labor-saving imple- 
ments for the field ever offered to the p'anter. 
They work easily to the hand Riid. tcsui, S-UCi d-O tliG work 
thoroughly, and with a degree of uniformity and exactness, un- 
equalled by a,ny other method, and unimaginable by one who has 
not seen them work. They are very 'durable and easily kept in 
repau’, and, in my opinion, will pav for themselves in one year.

Dr. A.- W. Washiur7i—De&v Sir I have used the Cotton Plan- 
ter, purchased of you, and my neighbors as well as myself are very 
much pleased with its performance. I shall want two more for 
next seasO'.(, and tr ink there will be a demand for them in this 
Parish as soon as they become known. H. H. CONNELL. 
Yazoo County, Juno 24, 1857. 
A. W. Washbuun Sf Co.— Gentlemen I have used Dr. Wash- 
burii’s Plainer, and Scraper and Hiller this season, with unparral- 
led success. They are capable of securing a more perfect stand, 
while they do the work better than by any other means I have ever 
known. The Planter being already sufficiently perfect, the com- 
bination of the Sci aper and Hiller into one machine, by reducing 
the cost and facilities, and improving effect, has left no room for 
further improvement. 
I shall use them more extensively next season, and shall want 
some more machines. Yours truly,
