Abilene, Kansas, Nov. 10, 1870. 
I seeded 3,400 acres of wheat with these machines_The 
stand of wheat is now the best I have ever seen on new 
land. R. J. Weymess, Trustee. 
Danville, III., Dec. 4,1876. 
This year I harvested, on 190 acres, 6,100 bushels of wheat. 
... .In my opinion the Screw Pulverizer increased the crop 
one-third over what I could have got by any other method.
