l\- chine to drill CottonSeed with regularity and
certainty. One that would operate equally well on
every kind ol laud, and at the same time be so sim
ple i'n construction and operation tha^ it could be
used bv negroes without liability of getting out of
order.' A Drill which ir« think possesses all these
qualities, we nov,- offer to the planting community.
After a thorough trial for the last two years in dif-
erent hands on all kinds of land, we would state
some of the advantages to lie derived from their use.
1st. The saving of seed, which will amount to
enough in planting one hundred acres, to pay for
the machine.
2d. Tlie saving of labor in planting, one horse and
hand only being required to open the furrow, drop
tRe seed and cover from seven to nine acres per
3d. The great saving of labor in chopping out,
tiie seed being deposited in a line one alter another.
4th. The great saving in subsequent hoe work,
owing to the fact that any plow-hand can, in siding,
cover all tlie first crop of grass in the drill, however
small the cotton may be, without injuring the stand.
These advantages all fanners will appreciate;
and below we give some certificates, from which
the public can learn how these Drills are apprecia
ted by gentlemen of the first standing in oursectiou
of the State—all practical farmers, who have thor
oughly tested them, and are consequently fuily
couipetent to decide on their merits.

Messrs. Randall <V Mercer—Gentlemen; In reply to
yours <>f this date, I can say wiih satisfaction, that I have
used your Cottt»n-Seed Drills on the f^rm of D. A. Vason,
Esq. with great success. I consider them to be of great
value. They are a saving of about one third of the labor
of cultivation, about two or three bushels pf seed to the
acre in planting, and a great saving of labor in planting,
as they open ihe furrow. cir<»p and cover the seen with
ore horse and band. I think them worth one hundred
dollars a piece to any planter that plants full crops ot
cotton. As for myself t would not plant a crop of cot
ton without them for no consideration in the boutids oi
reason. Yours, very respectfully.

I have used Randall A. Mercer s Cotton Tlaniertwo

I save seed enough each year to pay for die Planters
rhen I save at least one-third the labor of cultivation, as
the cotton is sowed in so narrow a line thru with good
plowing there is b .1 little hoe work reeded. Therein
also a saving of hands and horses in p anting, I should
say they v^ore worth one hundred dollars each, anti re

reed Drills, and consider them of great value, from ike
fact that i » the u e of them I saved from two to three
bushels uf see.i to each acre planted, and at least one-
third of tlie labor of euhivaion, not req liririjr one half as
much hoe work as the old w ay of planting—also* a con
siderable savitibT in die labor ot planting. I never expert
to plant cotton without them, if I can get them at any
price. I have planted eight acres per day to each Drill.
Titey are simple, easily inauag-o, and there is no difli-
culry about getting a good stand

the desideratum n.l long sought after.
It
Manyand varied have been the attempts of intelligent
minds to attain what you have, accomplished, but with on
ly partial success. Thi* leaves nothing to be desi cd in
a Cotton Drill. It deposits the seel uniformly and con
tinuously in a straight and narrow line as you wish, saves
about one half the labor in planting and about one-third
ofthe hue work in cultivation. Jr is almost needless to
add that I am delighted with your Drill.

fold paid for wli.it it cost me To give your Drill a fair
trial, I planied every other row with the I>rill and the
intervening rows I planted as well as ever Cotton was
planted before your Drill come into use. The result
was, that in the row planted with your Drib I g-t a
more perfect stand, and I think it grew off much baiter,
besides 1 realized a great saving »n the labor of working
over tny cotton the t wo first times. I shall continue to
