Der 2lst the result Of trial between your Watt
Plow" and Mr.. Starke'S Like Plow." wewil
| now endeayor to give 1t: We first worked both
pows In loamy, rich land, with eos er Of weeds
this piece Of land the Watt pillow covered IN every
thing much better than the bike" and pulyer-
lied the land. The Dixie did not. Neither pillow
choked.
We then tried both In a stiff, rich clay soil with
a very heavy cover OF wire.grass ku, high, ard
broom sedge waist high, intermixed with running
brlars. IL this soil and condition Of growth your
plow turned in all vegetation completely, without
choking and still doing the work I'm very superior
manner. On this land We do not think there could
be any comparison between the wOt k done by your
pillow and the 'DiNie.n
our plowmen vastly prefer the wat Plow."
We shall keep yours and return his.

reriZes and overlaps more thoroughly taan any
plow have ever used. Very respectfully,
