Philadelphia, April 19,1875. 
Messrs. Deere & Co., Moline, III.: 
Gentlemen The trial of your Gang Plow on our planta¬ 
tion in Virginia has been very satisfactory. The first day 
we took it out we turned down almost five acres in ten 
hours, using three mules. The soil a sandy loam and the 
plows runnimr six inches deep. On another occasion we 
plowed an acre and a fraction in less than two hours. 
The Ganc has acted so well that we have determined to 
order one for our larm in this 6tate, and may, if it succeeds 
equally well, want a number. 
Ship a Gang similar to the first.
