SOUTHERN CULTIVATOR 
for moulding cottr n, in managing Dr. Woodberry’s crop, and think

THOMAS VANCLEAVE. 
INCHUCA, near Yazoo C it, y June 10, 1857. 
A. TF. tFa^hhurn <V Co : — I have planted considerably ove one 
hundred acres 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 (after I had 
braced the plow, s) 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 to the hand and team, effectively and with the most 
beautiful uniformity. In short, the Planter and Hillc-r are uiiex- 
cepCirnable and invaluable. I would not he without them iu future 
were the price doublc'd.. G. W. WOODBbREY.

A. TF. Washburn 4* Co. — Gentlemen : — 1 Lave planted ihe entire 
crop under my management, com, cotton, and some Osage G auge 
for hedging, with Washburn's Patent Cotton Planters. I have 
scraped and hilled it with his Scraper and Hiller, ami h.rve experi- I 
enced no difficulty in obtaining the mo.st perfect uniform and heal- j 
thy st,inds I ever saw. I have had no lice or any other disease com- i 
mon to young cotton. 
I have no hesPatmn in pronouncing Washburn's Planters, and 
Combined Scr.aperand Hiller the most vTJuablc labor-saving imple- 
ments for the field e-vor offered to the p'anter. 
They work easily the hand and team, and do the work 
thoroughly, and v,-ith a degree of un formity and e.xactncss, un- 
eqaalled by any other method, and ununagin.able by one who has 
not seen them work. They are very durable and'ea.-ily kept in 
repair, smd, in my opinion, will pay for themseives in nne vear. I

A. W. WashhuJn Co. — Gentlemen : — I have used Dr. Wash- 
bum’s Plauier, and Scraper and Hiller this season, with uaparral- 
led succe6.s. They are capable of securing a more perfect stand, 
while they do the work better than by any other meaue I have ever 
known. The Planter being already sufficiently perfect, the com- 
bination ©f the Scraper 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 extensive’y next season, and shall want 
some more machines. Yours truly,
