Summerville, Ga., Oct. 20, 1908.
Taylor & Espy, Gentlemen: I Kive you my recommendation on the
Vulcan plows. First I will say they are the best plows that were ever on
mv farm They run smooth, they make a clean cut, they do not ask
weeds and trash any hoof, they will stay in the ground and do the work
right. I give away and sold together all other kinds of plows I had on my
farm for the Vulcan to take their place. Before I got a Vulcan, I had two
kinds of chilled plows and one of steel, the Vulcan has run them all out
of business on my farm. There was not a man on my farm that would
plow with the other turning plows when he could get a Vulcan.
I had a Vulcan shipped tome before any dealer here handled them.
I give it a trial in the same land with the other chilled plows. The plows
I had would not shed the dirt only on one side of the block of land, but
when my friend Vulcan got there he would shed his dirt all the way
around the whole block. This block was red land on one side, so after
that I stocked up my farm as soon as possible with Vulcan plows. After
I give the Vulcan a trial, yon men doubtless remember me advising you
to handle the Vulcan, and you would make no mistake, and I think you
will agree with me now that 1 did not advise you wrong.
As you have sold them all over this county, 1 have many times bad
men come to me and say, “look here, I want to get a turning plow, which
is the best to get.” “Oh,” I say to them, “go up here to Taylor & Espy
and get a Vulcan and you will make no mistake.”
A few days ago I was passing through where one of my neighbors
was plowing, I said to him. “you are sure doing a good job, whats that
you are plowing with?” “Oh” he said, “its the Vulcan, its the best plow
ever on my farm. It will shed this red dirt where the other plows wont.
I said to him, “I told you so, as far as I know I am the tirst man in my part
of the county to give the Vulcan a trial.” I don’t see how and in what
way any one could wish for a better walking turning plow than the Vul
can Is. The pecular way the different parts of the Vulcan are enterlocked
together 'cakes it very strong and durable. I use wood and steel beams
and have never had a steel beam sprung in any way. The mettle in the
Vulcan seems to be more toughter, to some extent, than some chilled
plows I have used. I can, on an anvil with hammer and steel punch, do a
better job fleaking, or sharpening, them than other kinds—J. C Hutchins.
14 TOOTH CULTIVATOR
For the last two seasons we have sold 100 of these very useful tools
We have bought 80 for this season. Ail who have used this little harrow
will join us in saying that there is no tool used on the farm for the money
it co,t that will pay better than this little harrow.

HOOSIER COTTON /ND CORN DRILL
The Hoosier Corn Planter is one of the beat corn planters
made. Drops corn 22 inches, 28 inches, 36 inches, or 46 inches.
are thoroughly ironed, and so constructed that they
will give the very best service. They are made of
air-seasoned stock throughout.
Hounds, bolsters and reaches are made full size,
while the skeins and skein boxes are extra heavy
hence the Columbus is a light running wagon. We
are always glad to show Columbus wagons and
point out their excellent features.
