COTTON-SEED DRILL.
4 I.L Planters have realized the want of a machine
T to drill Cottou Seed with regularity and certainty;
one that would operate equally well on every kind
lan i, and at the same time be so simple in construe
tion aud operation that it could t* used by negroes
without liability of getting out of order. A Dri.
which we think possesses all these qualities, we now
offer to the planting community. Alter a thorough
trial for the last two years in diferent hands on all
kinds ot land, we would state some of the advantage.-
to be derived from their use.
Ist. The saving of seed, which will amount to enough
in planting one hundred acres, to pay tor the machine.
2d. The saving of labor m planting, one horse nnd
hand only being required to open the furrow, drop
the seed and cover from seven to nine aces per day.
Sd The great saving of labor in chopping out, the
seed being deposited in a line one after another.
4th. The great saving in subsequent hoe work, owing
to the fact that any plow hand can, in siding, cover all
the lirst crop of grass in the drill, however small the
cotton may be, without injuring the stand.
These advantages ull farmers will appreciate ; and
below we give some certificates, from which the public
can learn how these Drills are appreciated by gentle
men of the lirst standing in our section of the State —
all practical farmers, who have thoroughly tested them,
and are consequently fully competent to decide ot
their met its.
CERTIFICATES.
This is to certify that I planted one hundred and
sixty acres of cotton with Randall and Mercer’s Planters,
and 1 consider them superior to any thing of the kind
I have ever seen or tried. The saving of seed alone
would pay for the machines in a season or two, aud I
think a hand can do one-third more hoeing than he
could in cotton planted the common wav.
Lee county, Geo, July’ 13th, 1855, 1?. L. BARBER.
Messrs. Randall A Mercer.— Gentlemen; In reply to
yours of this date, I can say with satisfaction, that 1
have used your Cottou Seed Drills on the farm of I).
A. Vason, Esq., with great success. I consider ihem
to be of great value. They’ are a saving of about one
third of the labor of cultivation, about two or three
bushels of seed to the acre in planting, and a great
saving of labor in plautiug, as they open the furrow,
drop und cover the seed with one horse and baud. I
think them worth one hundred dollars a piece to anv
planter that plants full crops of cotton. As for myself
would not plant a crop of cotton without them for no
consideration in the bounds of reason.
Yours, very respectfully.
A. J. BARKSDALE.
Lee county, July 12th, 1855.
I have used Randall A Mercer’s Cotton Planters two
seasons, and consider them of great value to the far
mer. I save seed enough each year to pay lor the
Planters, theu I save at least one third the labor of
cultivation, as the cotton is sowed in so narrow a line
that with good plowing there is but little hoe work
needed. There is also a saving of hands aud horses in
planting. I should say they were worth one hundred
dollars each, aud recommend every farmer to u-v them.

Col. J. 11. Watson —Sir: This is to certify that I have
used Randall A Mercer’s Cotton-seed Drill of your manu
facture, and am so well pleased with them that 1 would
recommend all planters who have not tried them, to
give them a fair trial. Where the Drills are used
there is a great deal of labor saved in cultivating a crop,
owing to its being so uniform in the drill, the plowing’
can be doue much belter, aud with greater despatch,
consequently the hoe work is lighter, as good plowing
supercedes the neccssifv of a great deal of hard ln-e
work. K. BRASWELL.
This is to certify that I used otic of Randall & Mer
cer’s Cotton-seed Drills last year in planting my crop,
and was well pleased. I have used five of them the
present year, planting my entire crop, and am still bet
ter pleased. There is a saving of between two and
three bushels of seed to the acre in planting, beside.-
one horse and one hand with these l)t ills does the work
of three bauds and two horses. Then there is a saving ot \
one-third of the hoe work, the cotton being in so
straight and narrow a row. 1 consider them worth
one hundred dollars each to any planter, aud recom
mend all to purchase aud use them
WM. H. OWENS.
Dougherty Cos., Geo., July 16.1555.
Messrs. Randall & Mercer —Gentlemen: Iu reply to
yours I will say l have used three of your Cotton seed
Drills, and consider them of great value, from the tact j
that in the use of them I saved from two to three
bushels of seed to each acre planted, and at least one- |
third of the labor of cultivation, not requiring one half |
as much hoe work as the old way of planting—also, a I
considerable saving in the labor of planting. I never !
expect to plant cotton without them, it I can get them ;
at anv price. I have planted eight acres per day to
each Drill. They are simple, easily managed, and
there is no difficulty abaut getting a good stand.
Very respectfully yours, ■ W. F. HAMRICK.
Lee county, Geo., July 12th 1855.
Tiiomasville, Thomas county, Ga.
Col. J. 11. Watson: Dear Sir: 1 can recommend 1
your Cotton Planters (Drill) in the highest terms. 1
have tried them on all my land except new ground,
and I think they wil do in that. They will do in a
mountainous country us well as in a level. It I had
not bought I would travel to your shop, which is 75
miles, and pay fifty dollars a piece for them. It saves
one-third of the work, one hand can plant as much as
two, and one hand can chop out three acres while one
can chop out one acre after a common plow.
Yours recpectfully. K. BRASWELL.
Messrs. Randall <k Mereti —ln reply to yours of the
sth instant, in reterence to your Cotton seed Drill, I
am happy to sav that after planting a portion of my
present crop in the old way, I was enabled to obtain
one of your Drills, with which I finished.
It is the desideratum and long sought after.
Many and varied have been the attempts of intelli
gent minds to attain what you have accomplished, but
with only partial success. This leaves nothing to be
desired in a Cotton Drill. It deposits the seet uniform
ly aud continuously in a straight and narrow line as
you wish, saves about one half the labor in planting
and about one-third of the boe work in cultivation.
It is almost needless to add that I am delighted with
your Drill.
Yours respectfully, J. E. MERCER.
Lee county. Geo., August 10th, 1855.
Messes. RandaU and Mercer —Gentlemen: I used one
of your Cotton seed Drills the past spring, and 1 feel
four fold paid for what it cost me. To git e your Drills
a fair trial, I planted everv other row with the Drill
and the intervening rows 1 planted as well as ever Cot
ton was planted before your Drill came iuto use. The
result was, that in the row planted with your Drill 1
got a more perfect stand, and I think it grew off much
better, besides 1 realized a great saving in tbe labor ot
working over my cotton the two first times. I shall
continue to use them as long as I plant Cotton.
I remain yours, Ac. JESSE COCK.
Lee county, Geo.
’ Messrs. Randall and Alerter —Gentlemen : I have used
eight of your Cotton-seed Drills, manufactured by J. 11.
Waston, ou Col. Joseph Bond’s Fowl Town plantation.
I am much pleased with them, having realized great
saving of seed, of labor in planting and chopping out,
and the hauds at the first siding could go over at least
one third more in a day, aud do better work thau iu
cotton planted in the best way 1 could plant with col
ter and block. 1 have no hcsUatiou in giviug it as my
opinion that iu the use of your Drills there is a saving
of one-third of the labor of cultivating a cottou crop.
Col. Bond is pleased with them and will continue their
use.
Yours, respectfully, JAMES CHEEK.
Fowl town, Geo., July Vtb, 1855.
This is to ccitily that I have used two of Randall
A Mercer s Cottou I’lauters, aud have no hesitation in
saying that they will do. The saving of labor in plant
ing is an object, the sat ittg of seed is an object, und the
cotton stands in such a narrow drill that it may almost
be- kept clean without the hoes. There is nothing to
equal them in planting cottou.

I have used Randall A Mereer's Cotton seed Drill,
which l purchased of Col. J. H. watson, and think
they are the best machines now in use. lam satisfied
there is a great saving in seed and a greater in work.
I am fully satisfied there is one-third of the boe work
saved. Try them, and any reasonable man will be sat
isfied they are worth more thau three times the price
they are sold for. PHILIP \’ EST.
Having obtained from Messrs. Randall A Mercer the
